Peterhouse is the oldest of the Cambridge colleges, founded by Hugo de Balsham, Bishop of Ely in 1284 and granted its charter by King Edward I. It remains the smallest college in terms of number of Fellows and students, but as the late Noel Annan put it in his 1999 survey of the universities and society, The Dons, this small College has always had "an intellectual influence … out of all proportion to [its] size".
Peterhouse gardens and grounds achieved fame in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries enclosing the smallest deer park in England and still provide a peaceful haven and a delightful walk to the recently listed William Stone Building (1964) and St Peter's Terrace (1851) where most conference guests are accommodated.
Whatever your requirements for your event, Peterhouse can offer a wide range of attractive function rooms, including our historic Theatre, available individually or in any combination.
Our venues offer scope for a variety of seating/table layouts. The College can provide the full range of standard AV equipment and presentational aids, as well as refreshments throughout the day.
Peterhouse has, for generations, enjoyed an enviable reputation for the high standards of its food and wine. To complete the experience, your lunch or dinner is served on crested tableware by the Fellows’ Butlers in one of our various historic, candle-lit College dining rooms.
We offer a range of menus, all prepared with care and using only the finest, locally sourced ingredients. It is also possible to tailor your own menu, in consultation with our Catering Manager. Menus include a good choice of vegetarian dishes and, given sufficient notice, we can cater for most special dietary requirements.
The College’s extensive cellars provide a range of options, both for pre-dinner drinks and to accompany your meal

The College has up to 100 rooms available for conference letting, all set in the historic surroundings of the main site, overlooking the gardens and in close proximity to the catering facilities and meeting rooms.
All rooms are centrally heated and comfortably furnished, with single beds, wardrobes, desks and comfortable chairs. Some rooms have en suite showers, while in other cases bath and shower-rooms for shared use are located nearby. Linen and towels are provided, along with tea/coffee making facilities, and rooms can be serviced daily except at weekends.
