Do the bedrooms have ensuite facilities?
Yes. Peter’s Place has ensuite bedrooms, including two ground-floor rooms, four first-floor rooms and seven rooms in the ground-floor extension.
Are there activities and a cinema room?
Potentially. The nearby Crescent Nursing Home has a day centre and cinema room that may be made available to Peter’s Place service users, with activities running Monday to Friday.
How much does Peter's Place cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Peter's Place for its weekly fee. As a guide, Bedford council paid on average £2,004 a week for a nursing care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,521 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
