Darley Bank is in a prime position to make the most of student life, being close to Derby city centre's main restaurants, bars and shops, as well as key University sites such as One Friar Gate Square, Britannia Mill and Markeaton Street. The accommodation is home to a selection of different sized en suite rooms and self-contained studios.

En suite rooms are based in modern vibrant flats with four to seven people sharing a kitchen and social space. En suite rooms are available in different sizes from 12 - 14 square metres, and premium en suites are larger at 15-16 square metres. The self-contained studios are ideal for couples wanting to share and represent very good value for money per person. Again studios vary in price depending on the size. 

Darley Bank offers a greater level of independence than other University accommodation. Staff will only enter the flats when necessary, leaving students free to enjoy their space with minimal intrusion. Cleaners at Darley Bank will only clean stairwells and the common room, leaving residents to ensure the cleanliness of their apartments. 

You’ll still get access to all the usual support and advice should you require it, just come and see us.
