Make Nottingham yours
Small enough to know. Big enough to keep discovering.
Live music and legendary venues.
The Lace Market and creative Hockley.
Nottingham Castle and its historic caves.
Brilliant shopping in the city centre.
The Arboretum and plenty of green space.
And a huge student community bringing the city to life.
Spend the afternoon exploring somewhere new, find your favourite café, meet friends for food or catch a gig in the evening. Wander through the Lace Market, discover Hockley’s independent shops and bars or head into the green spaces when you need a break from the city.
With Nottingham Trent University right in the city and the University of Nottingham just a short tram ride away, student life is woven into the city around you.
Maybe the best bit? There's a choice of Student Castles to help make Nottingham your own.
Some cities are made for student life. Nottingham leads the way.
Compact, energetic and full of character, Nottingham brings together independent cafés and bars, brilliant music, great food, shopping, green spaces and a huge student community. Explore the historic castle and caves, discover the creative energy of Hockley and the Lace Market, catch a gig at Rock City or simply find your favourite place to meet friends.
It’s a city that feels easy to get around, but gives you plenty of reasons to keep exploring.
University on your doorstep. Nottingham at your feet.
Your room is just the beginning.
The first friend you make.
The first night out.
The first time you find your favourite coffee spot.
The day you finally feel like you know your way around.
The random Tuesday that somehow becomes a memory you never forget.
These are the moments that make university yours.
