The take — DFS in Peterborough
The Peterborough branch sits in the Maskew Avenue retail corridor at Boulevard Retail Park (PE1 2HT), with King's Lynn on Hardwick Road (PE30 4HW) covering the Fens side. Boulevard is the useful one: Dunelm, Furniture Village and Sofology all trade from the neighbouring PE1 2HS park, making this one of the East's easiest four-brand afternoons. DFS holds the budget end of that line-up; if the crossed-out price is doing the persuading, remember it's an "After Event Price" — a future number, not a past one.
Sofa Shopping in Peterborough
Peterborough delivers 7 sofa showrooms from 6 brands — more than many East Anglian cities. Brotherhood retail park is the main hub, with HSL and Furniture Village adding substance alongside the high-street names. Prices range from budget-friendly to mid-to-high.
