Peter's Place


Peter’s Place is a refurbished Grade II listed building at 8 The Crescent which has recently been developed to combine comfortable surroundings and appropriate adaptations to meet the needs of the service users, providing six ensuite bedrooms in the main house and a further seven bedrooms in a newly built extension. Whilst those service users in Peter's Place will have a totally self contained home and landscaped garden, there will be opportunity for service users to mix with the service users from 12 The Crescent, the adjacent care home, if this is felt appropriate and in their best interests, particularly for social events.

Peter’s Place is located in Bedford Town Centre within walking distance of Local Shops, Banks, Post Office and Library.
