The Olive Branch Guest House in the Cotswolds, is a 400 year old 16th Century Grade II Listed building having been built in 1592. From what we know it was originally a Coaching House, as the town was a staging area on the route from Worcester and the Midlands to London Town.
Many of the building's original structures are still apparent, including the original Cotswold stone, the flagstone floor, the inglenook fireplace, the main structure of the building and a number of other areas in the house and garden wall.The Guest House also contains a number of antiques, some of which were left by the previous owners and others brought in by Pam and David.

Pam's a lovely host. Very friendly & helpful. Breakfast very good. The room was spotlessly clean & the tea & coffee facility was replenished every day, there was also Cuppa Soup & a microwave. The room had a fridge with milk & soft drinks in along with crisps, mini cheddars, peanuts & a packet of biscuits.

Broadway is such a lovely place to visit and to stay at The Olive Branch completes the truly wonderful experience.Pam is a superb host and nothing is too much trouble.The bedroom was great and spotless.Comfy bed too. Breakfasts were terrific and homemade bread and compotes were delicious.We stayed in 2019 around October for 3 nights and sadly our return visit was due in March this year and had to be cancelled(we all know why)We can't wait till we can return.

Loved our stay. Our hosts were lovely, the room was smallish but very nice. Personal touches in the room and home made components to the fabulous breakfast were very much appreciated. Loved sitting at the front window watching the world pass by.Enjoyed a lovely glass of bubbles with Pam in the gorgeous gardens

Only wish I could give this 6*, from arrival to leaving nothing was too much trouble, on arrival we was meet by David who told us where we could park and meet us to help take our bags in.David then took us on a tour showing us where the breakfast room was and the lovely sitting room that we could use and exploded that they had nibbles and drinks in there on a evening before you go out for dinner. We then went upstairs to or room, which was a good size and had everything you would need with a lovely large bed that was very comfy.
After a excellent night sleep , we was woken by people in the breakfast

Cannot recommend this place highly enough . A charming B and B , beautifully appointed rooms with an air of luxury at each turn. Our room was so comfortable and full of little extras should we need them. Attention to detail with everything was very endearing. Breakfast was generous, tasty, varied and where possible home made. It was impressive. The lounge and garden areas were welcoming and beautifully kept. I wish we had had the time to linger. Pam and David (and Zulu) were first class hosts, so professional and caring. We will definately want to stay at the olive branch again.
