Rules in force · 8Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window…
  • Europe ↗Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window, counted across all 29 Schengen states together — not per country; the Entry/Exit System now logs each crossing, so an overstay is detected automatically.
  • Europe ↗On the first Schengen entry since EES began, non-EU travellers give four fingerprints and a face photo at the border instead of a passport stamp; there is nothing to apply for or pay in advance.
  • Britain and Ireland ↗Neither the UK nor Ireland is part of Schengen: days spent here do not count towards the 90/180-day Schengen limit, and a Schengen visa does not admit you to either country.
  • Britain and Ireland ↗The island of Ireland runs on two currencies: euro in the Republic, pound sterling in Northern Ireland and Great Britain. Carry a card that pays in both without fees.
  • Britain and Ireland ↗Both islands drive on the left. Speed limits are in miles per hour in the UK (including Northern Ireland) and in kilometres per hour in the Republic of Ireland.
  • United Kingdom ↗Most visitors who do not need a UK visa now need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before travelling; this includes EU nationals. Irish citizens are exempt. Check the UK government site for your passport.
  • United Kingdom ↗The UK is outside the EU and the Schengen area; a Schengen visa is not valid for the UK.
  • United Kingdom ↗Driving is on the left; London has congestion and emissions charges for most vehicles, so do not drive in the city.

Broadway is a single wide street of 16th-century limestone houses at the northern gateway to the Cotswolds, in Worcestershire. It is compact, walkable and quieter than Bourton-on-the-Water, but the two headline sights — Broadway Tower and Snowshill Manor — sit outside the village and need a car, a taxi or a long walk. Most visitors see the street in half a day and use Broadway as a base for the wider Cotswolds.

Arrive & move

Airports are listed under At a glance; this is how to move once you are in

Getting around

The village is flat and small: everything on the High Street and around the Green is a 10-minute walk. Broadway Tower and Snowshill Manor are 1.5–3 miles away with no useful bus, so plan on a car, a taxi or a proper walk. The nearest mainline stations are Evesham and Honeybourne on the Cotswold line, both a short taxi ride out.

Watch out

Safety

Broadway is a low-crime village and safe to walk at night. The real risks are country lanes with no pavement, uneven limestone paths after rain, and getting stranded without a car after the last train or bus.
  • Car parks fill on summer weekends and bank holidays; the largest is on Leamington Road (WR12 7DZ).
  • Broadway Tower has spiral stairs and no step-free access to the roof.
  • Snowshill Manor is a National Trust property: check opening days before you travel, as it is not open every day.
  • The steam railway does not connect to the mainline network; it runs between Broadway and Cheltenham Racecourse on selected days.
