Living with Host
We have two double bedrooms in a relaxed and friendly house. We’ve been offering digs to local theatres for the past eighteen years. We have a friendly dog and cat. I’m an holistic therapist so you can have treatments whilst you’re here! Use of kitchen is welcome. We are half an hour pleasant walk to the key theatre, a bit further to the new theatre or it’s an easy bus ride. There is parking at both theatres if you drive. Theres no tv in the rooms, but we have a second living room you’re welcome to use. There is good WiFi connection. The toilet and bathroom is just across the hall and you don’t need to share unless there are two people from the theatre. Use of garden if required. There are lovely local walks, ideal for jogging if you’re into fitness! And a nice walk to the theatre by the river

Impossible to describe in 500 characters just how much I loved staying with Liz and Kim for a couple of weeks. They completely saved me after I escaped the digs from hell, welcomed me into their home and went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Wonderful cosy and homely place to stay with everything you might need. Lovely walk along the river into town for easy access to both the Key and New theatres, or a short drive. Major bonus getting to hang out with Fred the dog!
7th Jul 2026
Liz and Kim were wonderful to stay with! The house was cosy and inviting, the pets (Freddie and Willow) were lovely to be around too. The walk was a little further away than others digs but worth it to stay in a place that felt like a home away from home. I hope I get chance to stay again soon! Thank you both!

25th Apr 2026

I would pop up to visit Liz and Kim in a heartbeat. Wonderful company, beautiful home so so kind and considerate. Genuinely felt like popping home for a weekend with my folks and that is the sort of comfort you need on tour.
Really easy to get to either theatre. A lovely walk, bus or short drive. Highly recommend staying here.

Hands down the best digs and hosts I’ve ever stayed with! So welcoming, friendly and kind, up for a laugh and nothing ever too much trouble. They even helped me sort my flat tyre which could have been so stressful on tour! To top it off, their dog Fred is the most gorgeous friendly dog!

23rd Nov 2023
I thoroughly enjoyed my time staying with Liz! The whole family was extremely welcoming, and the room was super cosy, and lovely & warm.
It's about a 30 minute walk to the New Theatre, which I enjoyed, however there's also a bus that comes every 15 minutes that's practically door to door.
I will definitely be back here when next in Peterborough!
14th Nov 2023
I had such a wonderful stay with Liz, Kim and Lottie. They were so welcoming and I instantly felt at home. It was a short drive to the theatre and the bed was so comfortable. Extra bonus was falling totally in love with their gorgeous pets. I won’t hesitate to book again if I’m in Peterborough!
26th Oct 2023
Aww, it was lovely to have you come and stay. Willow the cat has been looking for you! Hope you’re this way again one day xx

Aww thanks Ewan.such a pleasure to meet you. Come again!
Liz was a great host super friendly, it was lovely to find out that her home was also great for someone needing to be gluten free as she is. There are a few pets in the home but all beautiful and friendly. It had everything I needed during my stay.
12th Jul 2023
My 2nd stay at these digs. Very relaxed, easy going and helpful hosts, everything you need, friendly dog and in a nice location. It’s a good 30-40 brisk walk to the theatre, which suits me but might not others. A lovely week.
25th May 2023
Lovely clean little room and wonderfully friendly hosts.

Liz is a beautiful host and gave me a lot of freedom in their home. The room is very quiet and the bed is a great one. I got a great massage from Liz and we enjoyed meaning conversations.
8th Dec 2022
Liz made you feel welcome. It is a short drive away from the theatre. Sometimes very noisy as the room is right next to the stairs. Overall, great digs in Peterborough if you are a heavy sleeper and have a car.
21st Nov 2022
Oh no! I’m sorry, I didn’t realise we were noisy. Otherwise, Thankyou for you review and hope to see you again soon
Lovely and bright room with a very comfy bed! Liz is a wonderful host and her home is just lovely, I hope to come back to Peterborough so I can stay again! Thank you for hosting me Liz :)

25th Jul 2022
Thanks so much Isabel. I hope you come on tour this way again. We’d really love to see you xxxx
I had a lovely time here and would stay again. Everything you need, plus friendly cat and dog. Wonderful hosts. It is about a 30-40 minute walk to the theatre mainly along the river, which suited me but won’t suit some. Great parks nearby. Thanks!
20th Jun 2022
Thanks james. Was lovely to meet you. We forgot to tell you about the bus that is practically door to door!
It was an absolute pleasure staying with Liz and her wonderful family, they made me feel extremely welcome and really go above and beyond. It was a home away from home. A short walk to town, a lovely quiet spot to stay. Definitely stay here again.
21st Jan 2022

Elizabeth is a delightful host, has a delightful home and a very welcoming family. I settled in easily and had a great stay in Peterborough. would without question recommend highly to anyone and who asked
2nd Sep 2021
Liz was a fabulous host, welcoming, kind and thoughtful. The bed was deliciously comfortable and the room was blissfully silent! I can also recommend Liz's Indian Head Massage - Bliss. Next time I'm in Peterborough I'm definitely staying there again.

Beautiful house, beautiful room, beautiful bed. Elizabeth and her husband were very pleasant to spend time with.
20th Jan 2020
