Reviews of The Old Lockup
"Lovely small characterful place to stay in a pretty little town. Tim was very helpful and cooks a super breakfast!"
"Good location, comfy room and an excellent breakfast. The hotel has plenty of unusual character about it too. The host is welcoming. Well recommended."
"What can I say. I would definitely recommend this bed and breakfast. Was taken away for a surprise and the place played a big part in a great weekend. Wonderful greeting by the owner. Our room was amazing and the history of the building is fabulous. Breakfasts were so very good. We didnt eat on the evening but when we visit again, which we will, we will definitely try the evening meal. Also dog friendly which is really important to us. Our dog stayed in the room at breakfast time but we would expect this. Gem of a place. Situated in a great village too with plenty of dog walks."
"Quirky and unique place with some history, absolutely loved it. The room (I stayed in the Magistrates Room) was clean, well presented and very comfortable. The owner, Tim, was very helpful, offering a cuppa and a cake on arrival so we could relax as soon as we arrived. I would stay again for sure. Oh and the breakfast was very tasty and good quality. Visit the Star Disc while you are there, a lovely walk and beautiful views."
"Arriving for a three night stay, our host Tim welcomed us with tea/coffee and cake. We found our room to be most satisfactory in a unique and interesting establishment. Everything was to a high standard and all the food was deliciously prepared, cooked and served by our host. We enjoyed three evening meals and three breakfasts, all different, and for us, the homemade bread alone was worth going for. We had a most relaxing and enjoyable stay and the town of Wirksworth is a very interesting place. Well worth the visit."
