Stay in Peterborough city centre where you can most easily take advantage of its exciting gastronomy and bar scene. From here, you can also visit the city’s cultural highlights on foot like the Peterborough Museum and the cathedral.
Whilst the city centre is an excellent place to stay for unlimited entertainment, families might prefer the Thorpe Meadows neighourhood located west of the city centre. The quiet family-oriented area is situated along River Nene leading to Nene Park. Both the river area and park provide ample space for kids to run around and adults to enjoy a coffee in the sunshine.
Rather than staying in the city, enjoy a relaxed rural countryside experience in the greater Cambridgeshire area. Find a cute cottage, barn conversion, or even an elegant estate that exudes oodles of English charm as your base for exploring Peterborough and all the other highlights this county has to offer.
