Lovely and clean house. Lynn and her husband were so lovely and accommodating. Nice short drive in to Derby theatre and accessible by bus as well.

If I could give 10 stars in every category, I would! Lynn and Mick are solid gold people and amazing hosts, I was so grateful for their warm welcome and hospitality, and a very spacious, comfortable room. Will definitely be back if I get back to Derby!

Thank you Lubna.
This is a lovely lady who would be welcome back in our home any time.
She is friendly, quiet, respectful and very interesting to talk to. We had some lovely chats.
Thanks for choosing to stay with us. Hope to see Lubna again.

A beautiful home with very friendly and accomodating hosts. Everything you need is here and you don’t want for anything. Too far to walk, but parking in Derby is cheap and I chose to drive in daily. Buses available too. A lovely stay for the week and if you are lucky, you get to meet Gus too!

Lynn and Rob are wonderful hosts who provide a warm welcome to their lovely home. The bedroom is very comfortable, with a shared en suite bathroom. It is in an excellent location, with easy access to Derby city centre on regular public transport. It is a true home-from-home!

Fantastic digs! You couldn't get better facilities or a friendlier welcome. It's a ten minute walk to the bus stop and the buses are very reliable and regular. I would definitely stay again and I thoroughly recommend it.

Thank you so much! 🙏
It was our pleasure.
Lynn and Robert were the ideal hosts, friendly, great to chat to but also respected my space. I personally loved the 20 minute cycle otherwise the bus was only 20 minutes door to door! I would highly recommend their lovely, quiet home.

5* all the way. Beautiful home and wonderful hosts! Definitely booking again!
16th Jan 2018
The only issue I had was the distance from derby arena, where I was working as I don’t drive but everything else was above and beyond anything I’d expect from hosts and I would happily stay with Towle’s again if I need to be based in Derby!!
1st Jan 2018
Thankyou Isaac it was a pleasure to have you share our home and hope you do tread the boards in Derby again. You will be always welcome here!
