2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games Accommodation
With the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games coming ever closer, cities, towns and villages across England are preparing to play an important role. At nearby Worcester both the University of Worcester and Worcester Warriors Rugby Football Club are official training camps and Lougborough University has been chosen as a training base for Team GB ahead of the Games.
Our award winning 4 star rated luxury Cotswold holiday cottages are an ideal base for an excursion into London and the Olympic events and are also a rural retreat from the crowds and Olympic madness offering space, freedom and time to relax in the idyllic Cotswold countryside.
In addition to the venues in London, during the 2012 Games, Olympic and Paralympic events will take place at the following venues all less than 2.5 hrs drive from our award winning Cotswold holiday cottages in Broadway (times and distances are approximate):
- The City of Coventry Stadium - Football, 1hr by car, 40 miles/70km
