At the risk of being obvious, in their bed.

Cobblers are shoemakers. This was one of the most common professions of the middle ages. A master cobbler would have owned their own business, and may possibly have had apprentices or journeyman working for them. The master likely lived in a town house of several floors, and would have slept in a private bedchamber with his wife.

A journeyman, meaning a cobbler who had finished their apprentice training, but did not have their own business, would have worked for a master for wages. They would have had a simpler dwelling, either a more humble townhouse, or perhaps rented a chamber(s) in someone else's house. In a smaller town, or away from the dense urban core or a larger town, they may have lived in a cottage style home as well ( a free standing single floor home of one or two rooms).

An apprentice was a younger person who was learning the trade. They did not receive pay, but were given room, board, and living expenses by their master. They lived and worked with a master craftsman, and received training in their craft as they assisted in the workshop. Depending on the master's house, they might have lived in a small chamber somewhere in the house, or in a garret, or perhaps slept in the house's main hall. (In medieval buildings this does not refer to a passageway, but the main common room of the house, which would have had a fireplace or hearth.) If they did not have their own room there would have been a simple mattress, probably stuffed with straw, that could be removed from storage and laid out at night.

During the Middle Ages, a cobbler would typically sleep in a small room or living quarters attached to or above their workshop or store. This workshop or store was usually located on the ground floor of a building, while the cobbler's living space was above it.
