Had an amazing stay here highly recommend!!

2nd Jun 2026

Beautiful house and lovely people, made me excited to go home after work everyday, definitely recommend.

19th May 2026

Great stay again with Richard. Lovely house, much of which is shared digs for theatre people. Very comfortable bed, parking and shared kitchen. 15 minute walk or a tram to Royal Centre. Will be back!

5th May 2026

Wonderful place and I loved my quirky room and shower! Garden is to die for - thank you for a lovely stay

1st May 2026

Rick and Gillian are the BEST hosts. Gave me plenty of space but was there in a heartbeat if I needed anything. Own kitchen to cook in. Huge room and a really comfortable bed. 20 min walk to the theatre. I'll be staying here again when I tour next.

28th Apr 2026

Darby house is a lovely little gem in Nottingham. Quick walk to the theatres with parking. Rick was a fantastic host with great communication. Would definitely stay again.

21st Apr 2026

We had an amazing time staying here. Beautiful home and also lovely garden. A nice walk to the theatre, the Arboretum and city centre. Rick , Gillian and Frank were very warm hosts. Will stay here again next time I am in Nottingham. x

8th Apr 2026

3rd or 4th time staying here. I'm sure it wont be my last

6th Apr 2026

Just a one night stay on this occasion so hard to give a well rounded review but great communication from Rick who's a lovely host. Lots of interesting ornaments and eclectic bits and pieces all through the house and a very beautiful garden. Thanks so much for hosting me!

31st Mar 2026

Lovely room in a lovely house. Great host. Would recommend

27th Mar 2026

Lovely place, lovely people. Just make sure to have the correct post code for taxis/deliveries as there is another road with the same name on the other side of Nottingham.

Would stay here again if I were ever back in town.

25th Mar 2026

My stay here was very pleasant, it was a quick commute to the theatre by tram or an easy walk in. The hosts were friendly, and despite there being other theatre people renting rooms on my floor, I felt like I had privacy and hardly ran into anyone else! Having a separate kitchen just for guests was great and I made use of it.

15th Mar 2026

This was my Third stay with Rick. The room is wonderfully comfortable, still with one of the best beds I've had on tour. The shower cubvicle in the room is very welcome, as is the really comfy armchair. Super easy to get into town via the tram which is a 5 min walk away. Until the next time!

10th Mar 2026

A fantastic place with a beautiful garden, and Rick and Gillian are wonderful hosts. They’re incredibly warm and friendly, and I had such a lovely time staying with them. I’m already looking forward to my next visit. Thank you so much.

2nd Mar 2026

Always a great stay at Rick's, great house in a fab location. Will stay again! x

18th Feb 2026

Great stay thank you !!

13th Feb 2026

Had a really lovely stay! Super lovely house and hosts and so close to the tram stop to the town!

9th Feb 2026

Spacious room. 20-25 mins walk to theatre royal. Would recommend taking tram as it takes less time. Didn't get to see much of Rick and Gillian but on the brief conversations they seem friendly and helpful.

1st Feb 2026

I had a great time staying here.
Rick and his wife were absolutely lovely and were always there if I needed any help.
I would absolutely recommend staying here, it is about a 15-20 minute walk or if you like a lime bike, 7 minutes max to get to the theatre.
Great value for money!

28th Jan 2026

Had a lovely stay here! I stayed in bedroom 3, which was spacious and comfortable. They provided winter duvets and heating was set to our show schedule, which I thought was very hospitable. Any problems, Rick sorted them instantly. Would stay again.

13th Jan 2026

Rick was a great host who communicated well throughout and made sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed during my stay. The room was spacious and the distance to the Theatre Royal was manageable by walking. All in all a great Digs and I'd happily stay there again.

6th Jan 2026

Great host!

10th Nov 2025

Great digs, good location, brilliant host

29th Oct 2025

Rick and Gillian are wonderful hosts. The house is beautiful and spacious. 15/20 minute walk to the Theatre, plenty of shops nearby. I would stay here again in a heartbeat when I’m back in Nottingham.

21st Oct 2025

Great digs! Rick and Jill lovely hosts.

21st Oct 2025

Darby House is a lovely place, full of character an fascinating detail. The beds are comfy, the area is quiet and all the rooms are very spacious. I was really grateful to have a peaceful haven after a busy day's work.

20th Oct 2025

Rick is friendly and accommodating. I was moved from my original booking to a better room so he could help out someone on another show, which he rang to explain - in the other person's situation, I would have appreciated that hugely. Location is easily walkable to theatres, quiet, and some great shawarma/dosa/grill joints and ASDA practically on the doorstep. Strong recommend.

19th Oct 2025

A lovely stay, thanks so much! Can definitely recommend and would 100% stay again.

13th Oct 2025

Great size room in a lovely house, a nice easy walk to the theatre and excellent local recommendations from Rick!

29th Sep 2025

I had a pleasant stay. Gorgeous room, fully commutative host when needed and nice distance from Theatre Royal with pleasant 15 min walk or quick 5 min tram ride. Would stay again.

29th Sep 2025

Lovely place and friendly and accommodating hosts! Would recommend

22nd Sep 2025

Comfy stay. Quiet and private.

8th Sep 2025

Had a really lovely time here, felt very comfortable and looked after. It was such a cool home to stay in!

26th Aug 2025

I stayed at Darby House for 3 weeks when I came to Nottingham with the 'Tina Turner' musical. They are lovely digs with everything you need. Rick and Gillian are great hosts, very friendly and helpful and I was made to feel very welcome. I hope I can stay again.

7th Aug 2025

Very warm welcome from Rick the host, and I very much enjoyed my stay at the most interesting and quirky house. Well equipped kitchen and I felt very safe! Thank you 😀

4th Aug 2025

Lovely stay with Rick in Nottingham, great house about 20 minute walk from the theatre. Lots of shops nearby and was able to park my car at the digs, thanks for having me!

18th Jul 2025

A great place to stay when working at the theatre royal, a short walk. Comfortable room and good facilities.

13th Jul 2025

My stay here at Darby House was wonderful! A beautiful location, and with wonderful and friendly hosts. It was exactly what I needed during my stay in Nottingham, and I always felt very comfortable, both in my room and around the house. I would definitely stay here again!

2nd Jul 2025

I really enjoyed my stay at Darby House – really comfortable room, beautiful house and garden, and great location for the theatre. Highly recommended!

20th May 2025

Nice big comfy room on the first floor. Well equipped kitchen and super friendly hosts. Nice easy walk in to the theatre

9th May 2025

Great sized room in characterful house. Amazing garden in house set back from road. Rick & Gillan very helpful, welcoming and laid back with helpful tips about shops and directions. Would certainly stay here again when working when touring to Nottingham.

7th May 2025

Everything was exactly as the pictures show. Easy check-in, not far to the theatre, perfect for a budget. Would definitely stay again.

The road to the house where you park is extremely bumpy and has lots of pot holes. I have an older A3 which was absolutely fine, however if you have low suspension in your car, or don't want to risk it in general, you'd need to park elsewhere.

3rd May 2025

Not enough stars really, Richard and Gillian have such a beautiful house and garden, great hosts, perfect location. Would love to stay again!

29th Apr 2025

Darby House is ideally situated with easy walk into town and the theatre, very lovely garden too. Highly recommended.

25th Apr 2025

Had a great stay! Would love to come back next time we are in Nottingham!

14th Apr 2025

It was lovely staying with Rick and Gillian in Nottingham. Plenty of space in the room with a comfy bed and a nice shared bathroom. However, it isn't quite self-contained as we did have to share the kitchette with the hosts son

13th Apr 2025

Wonderful home, Richard was lovely and gave me the tour of the house. The garden is beautiful too. 10/10 would recommend to stay here!

9th Apr 2025

10/10 would stay here again, very cosy!!

7th Apr 2025

Great stay with Richard. beautiful hose in a fine city. easy walk to the theatre. book now.

6th Apr 2025

I had a great time at Richard’s house.
Would definitely recommend. A good 30 minutes walk to the theatre. Richard was a lovely host, would definitely stay again.

11th Mar 2025

Really lucked out with these digs. Would highly recommend!!!
Thanks for a great stay

25th Feb 2025

Lovely stay, very comfortable room and great amenities. Rick and family were very accommodating. Easy walk to Nottingham Theatre Royal. Would definitely recommend!

4th Feb 2025

I had a lovely time here. I didn’t get a chance to meet Rick in person because I was out most days but I met Gillian and we had the loveliest chat. You may see other reviews about the figurines but the house was own by an art collector and one could call their taste eclectic. I walked most nights from the theatre and it was alright. The walk goes through the university. The garden is lovely!!!!

3rd Feb 2025

Had a great stay with Rick in his absolutely beautiful home. Really nice guy and was only a text/call away if we needed something. I was in Room 3, very cosy and bed was really comfy, plenty of space in the room. The bathroom was perfect, great shower!! A really easy 15/20 minute walk to the theatre and plenty of local shops nearby too. Thanks again Rick and will most definitely stay again when I am back in Nottingham! :)

3rd Feb 2025

Rick was brilliant from start to finish. The house is lovely and so full of character, with an extremely comfortable bed. It's a good 20min walk to the theatre (but a very nice one, mostly downhill) or it's 5 mins walk to the tram stop which gets you right to stage door in about 7mins. Rick was very understanding when me and the other guests from my show were feeling the January weather and he kindly left the heating on for a couple of extra hours, which was marvellous. Highly recommend!

29th Jan 2025

Really great stay. Eric was really helpful.

26th Jan 2025

Great digs, comfortable and with shared kitchen facilities just for guests a real bonus. Close to tram stop, which then stops right outside theatre.

25th Nov 2024

Lovely place to stay! Gorgeous big house!

13th Nov 2024

Comfortable room, a short bus ride or 25min walk from Theatre Royal/Playhouse. I did find the room decor slightly off putting, in particular the many different dolls/figurines which aren’t immediately obvious in the photos.

23rd Oct 2024

Lovely digs, comfortable and full of character, easy to get to the theatre from each day. Hosts were friendly and communicative too. Would recommend staying here!

21st Oct 2024

Had a great week staying at these digs. Lovely big room in a beautiful house with a great bathroom and kitchen. A good location, 20 mins walk from the Theatre Royal. Rick was a great host, super friendly and very communicative and helpful with local details. Would definitely stay here again next time in in Nottingham.

16th Oct 2024

Richard was really easy to communicate with. The house is stunning and the bed was incredibly comfy. Some annoying roadworks made it difficult to find initially but loads of places to park once we did.

15th Oct 2024

Lovely, kind hosts and an easy commute into work

9th Oct 2024

Rick was an amazing host!
Such a lovely and comfortable stay, with a great character to it.
So easy to get into the centre city & I would definitely stay here again.
Thank you

1st Oct 2024

Lovely room in a beautiful house. Thank you so much!

27th Sep 2024

Great people, friendly, accommodating, clean, big room, comfy, good internet.

The neighbourhood is not the best, which results in noises at times and not the most pleasant walk at night. But this is not the hosts fault!

6th Aug 2024

Had a lovely stay with Richard and family - the house is gorgeous and the room very spacious with everything you need - only a 15 minute walk into town with a tram stop very close by for even quicker travel.

3rd Aug 2024

Thanks for having me!

28th Jul 2024

This was our first time via theatre digs.com and was not disappointed
Darby house was well described, clean and well presented
Richard & gillian were lovely hosts with great local knowledge of the area
Will stay with again on our next visit

24th Jul 2024

Rick and Gillian were wonderful hosts with a beautiful home. The room was spacious and comfortable with good access to the kitchen and very close to the theatre. I would happily recommend these digs to anyone and would stay again. Thank you for having me!

15th Jul 2024

What a wonderful place to stay. Lovely hosts who were very communicative and friendly. A quick walk or 6 minute tram in to town and 10 minutes to Nottingham station. What more could you ask for? Thank you for having us!

3rd Jul 2024

This was my second stay with Rick. The room is so comfortable with one of the best beds I've had on tour and a really comfy chair to spend those non-work hours relaxing in. Super easy to get into town via the tram which is a 5 min walk away. Will always be the first place I contact if staying in Nottingham.

3rd Jul 2024

Beautiful home with lovely, friendly hospitable host, would highly recommend and would deffo stay again if in the area

11th Jun 2024

I enjoyed my second stay at Rick and Gillian's lovely home.
I had a spacious room, and the guest kitchen was well appreciated. Rick was again very welcoming, helpful and always on hand. Thank-you!
Nice location for a 20 min walk (or 10 on the tram) to the Theatre Royal. I'd happily book again next time I'm in Nottingham.

29th May 2024

Richard was a wonderful host with such an interesting house and beautiful garden. I had a great stay. Would definitely recommend

27th May 2024

Rick and his wife were super accomodating and lovely! They have a beautiful garden and are not far from the tram station or just a 25min walk from the theatre. My tip would be plan your night time transport if you’re a woman alone. I didn’t feel 100% safe walking it alone at night.

13th May 2024

4th time staying here and always made to feel very welcome. 20 mins walk to the Theatre Royal or there’s a tram. The garden is an absolute highlight of this accommodation!

1st May 2024

A great place to stay. Walkable to the Theatre. Quiet and quirky. Such an interesting house. Lovely garden. Thank you Richard.

30th Apr 2024

I loved staying with Rick and Gillan, they were very helpful and the room was very comfy. a 20 mins walk but some hills but I really enjoyed it! I would definitely stay here again.

25th Apr 2024

I had a great stay at Darby House, Richard and Gillian were both very helpful and accommodating.

18th Apr 2024

A lovely welcome from Richard and Gillian. Their home, set back in a garden oasis, is simply wonderful, full of character. Room was large, warm and clean as was the bathroom and kitchen. Hosts were interesting to talk to to about the history of their home. A 20 min walk to Theatre Royal. A quiet and peaceful home to return to after a show. Would return here and highly recommended. Thank you both.

20th Mar 2024

Great digs! Friendly and helpful hosts

9th Mar 2024

I had a lovely stay at Darby house, cosy with lots of character, will definitely stay again

4th Mar 2024

One of the most characterful places I've stayed, Rich was very welcoming and accommodating of a last minute booking. The bed is comfortable and with a heavy duvet to counter the cold, it's a very large old house so the heating is only on for set periods but that never bothered me.

The room I stayed in didn't have curtains on the top window - that I saw anyway - which wasn't a massive issue but something to be aware of if you stay here.

A nice bathroom
All in all a very pleasant stay

26th Feb 2024

Great digs. Close to Theatre Royal - about 15-20 min walk. Take a few layers if staying in winter as the magnificent house is old and high ceilings can make it a tad cold. Very friendly hosts.

29th Jan 2024

Richard was lovely and at-hand whenever I reached out. A cool place and very easy to get in to the theatre. Thanks guys.

28th Jan 2024

Thanks for a good stay!

17th Jan 2024

I had a lovely stay whilst in Nottingham. The house is beautiful along with the room I stayed in. Rick and Gillian were so welcoming. It was an easy 20 minute walk to the theatre. And the private parking was perfect!

16th Jan 2024

Fantastic stay as always. Rick and Gillian are wonderful hosts and the house is perfect. Highly recommend!

12th Dec 2023

Beautiful house and Rick and Gillian were very welcoming. Easy commute to the theatre.

28th Nov 2023

Absolutely loved my stay here. A very easy walk in and out too. Was lovely having own private shower in the room - highly recommend staying here to anyone coming through Nottingham on their tour!

6th Nov 2023

Nice stay. About 20 minute walk to Theatre Royal.

5th Nov 2023

I had a great stay with Rich in his great big house. The room was enormous and very comfy. The private kitchen is a bonus. Right on the tram line so very easy to get to the theatre. Would stay again.

22nd Oct 2023

Really stress free stay. Lovely folk. Kitchen and bathrooms clean and easy to use.

21st Oct 2023

This stay was great. A chance to actually relax and feel at home. A wonderful property that allowed me my own space. The hosts were exceptionally friendly and were extremely helpful at all points. The decor of the house is lovely and the garden is beautiful. I felt at home here and wished I could stay longer! Thank you Rick for a brilliant time.

1st Oct 2023

I think this is my 3rd of 4th time staying as I am always so comfortable here! Rooms are so spacious and the separate kitchen is well equipped. Rick and Gillian are the most welcoming hosts and just leave you to it. About a 20 min walk with up and downhill and less than £6 in an Uber. I’m sure I’ll be back soon!

11th Sep 2023

Excellent digs. Big rooms. Lovely garden. Everything you need. Friendly approachable hosts. I've stayed there three or four times in the past and hope to stay there again next time I'm passing through

31st Aug 2023

Lovely stay at a quirky house! 20 mins away from the theatre and helpful hosts! Thank you for my stay!

10th Jul 2023

Great digs. Lovely people. Definitely go again if in Nottingham.

21st Jun 2023

Lovely digs, lovely hosts, super kind & helpful, & the most unbelievably beautiful garden. Would absolutely stay again.

19th Jun 2023

I had mis-read the en-suite shower as an en-suite bathroom with a shower but is is just a shower. Bathroom opposite so not a huge problem. Not a fan of spiders and there were lots of cobwebs in my room. Great location and lovely hosts.

30th May 2023

How digs should be. Separate kitchen, separate bathroom. Beautiful walled garden. Rick and Gillian are lovely hosts, ready with a cuppa and a chat as/if or when you want to. Will definitely book again!

16th May 2023

One of the best stays I’ve had through TDB. Rick & Gillian were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and their house and garden is nothing short of magical.

8th May 2023

A spacious and quirky house. Richard and Gillian were lovely and hospitable. 20/5 min hilly walk to the theatre, but the Tram was quick and convenient. Thanks for having me x

13th Mar 2023

Had a wonderful stay in a beautiful house!
Good location, plenty of shops around and about a 15/20 min walk from the theatre. Great hosts too! Would recommend.

9th Feb 2022

Lovely hosts, and a wonderful old house full of charecter and loads of space. Having my own shower a treat and separate guests kitchen a great idea. Location is great, Tram takes no time and stops outside Theatre Royal. Thoroughly recommend.

6th Feb 2022

Richard et all were lovely. It’s a good place to lay your head. Kitchen was a little unkept but I’ve got OCD so it’s all relative. Other than that it’s perfect if you’re out and about seeing the sights of Nottingham and working at the theatre.

24th Jan 2022

Rick was so lovely and welcoming, great host. House is old (with lots of great character!) but I did find it very cold. Rick also mentioned it wasn’t the safest area when I arrived, so I got a taxi home every night from the theatre.

8th Dec 2021

Fab stay in a lovely home. Really nice guest kitchen.

26th Nov 2021

Comfortable digs, in easy reach of the theatre with friendly, laid back hosts. Full kitchen facilities and parking (on private lane) a bonus.

11th Oct 2021

Lovely digs and lovely hosts. Enjoyed my stay.

29th Sep 2021

A lovely, quirky house with brilliant hosts. You have your own kitchen space and bathroom which is amazing. The road isn’t great if you have a large car but the theatre is only 20 min walk or a 5 min Uber away so can’t complain

28th Sep 2021

Rick & Gillian are the loveliest people, so kind & accommodating. We got Ubers to and from the theatre, which were relatively cheap. The rooms are huge & the shower is amazing! I had everything I needed to feel comfortable, thank you so much!

6th Sep 2021

Rick was the most amazing host! He made us feel very welcome throughout our stay! Will definitely be back in the future!

6th Sep 2021
