What a great, quirky find. So comfortable, I slept so well. I’m just sorry it was a working trip and therefore not able to appreciate my stay more. Tim is a terrific host too.

The Old Lock Up was clean,warm, and welcoming. I stayed for 3 nights in the Solicitor's room, which I found pleasant and characterful, with a comfortable bed and a good sized ensuite. It was very quiet with really thick walls. The breakfast was great and beautifully cooked. The property is well situated a short walk from the centre of Wirksworth. I managed it easily even with a sprained ankle. I had a very pleasant stay.

Had a lovely 2 nights, mid-week at the Old Lockup. Very characterful and full of memorabilia from when it was a police station. Stayed in The Magistrates room on the first floor, very warmly decorated and furnished with a small en-suite. With Tea,Coffee and even a small fridge with complimentary bottle of milk and water. Breakfast provided, from a full English to pancakes. Owner really nice, and accommodating - nothing would've been too much trouble. Free small carpark onsite, with a large free parking area across the road Given your own keys to come and go even you wish, the local are Wirksworth was lovely. Had a tapas and quiz night in the Hope n Anchor which was very relaxed and a good laugh. St Marys church is beautifully adornedvl with saxon carvings and definitely shouldn't be missed. Overall could not fault it, and looking forward to visiting again xx

We stayed in the Magistrate's Room, which was a good size, with a comfy bed. Lovely and warm too. Tea, coffee and milk provided. En suite was not up to my expectations. Louvre door to toilet, so no privacy. Electric shower didnt have much gusto. Toilet seat didn't stay up. Very small room. Needs a redecorate too. Decent breakfast, but not exciting. Host very accommodating and provided a takeaway breakfast roll for one of our mornings.

Lovely, very clean accommodation throughout, with an old traditional feel about it. Choice and quality of breakfast excellent and cooked & served at a time of your choosing. Tim was a friendly and hospitable host. Also a great location for the town, heritage railway and surrounding area.

Great host, attentive and helpful. Gave us good recommendations on where to start our walk on the High Peak Trail and where to dine without taking the car. Good room, well appointed with everything one needs plus some little touches like fresh milk and water in the fridge. I travel a lot and there are plenty 4 star properties that don't even give you a bag of tea. Recommended.

We had three nights D, B&B here and were pleased we did. The Old Lock Up is very comfortable and clean and the owner is a good cook and also very friendly. As a result we had excellent evening meals. There is time limited street parking outside although unrestricted parking is allowed between 16.20 and 09.40. Wirksworth is an ideal centre for seeing the southern parts of the Peak District National Park and for visiting the nearby World Heritage Site at Cromford.

We had a very peaceful stay host was welcoming, our 2 dogs had enough space in the room. We had a fabulous breakfast served by Tim. We choose the Hayloft room this time but would live to stay again and try other room as they are different. Great breakfast times didnt have to get up really early. Lots of history information on our room about the hotel as it was an old police station.

My girlfriend and I stayed for a few days between the 30th of July - 2nd of August and we really enjoyed our stay, Tim was very accomodating and friendly throughout our visit and his breakfasts were simply brilliant. I would definitley recommend The Old Lockup to anyone looking for a nice quiet get away. The only dissapointment was that it seem to pass us by too quickly as I would have quite happily stayed the whole week. Also next time we can take our dog with us as it is pet friendly :) Martin & Zoe.

Very clean b&b, could do with updating decoration. Bed was comfy, en-suite was clean. Very nice breakfast and attentive.

2.0 / 10.0

A quirky place to stay although the effect of Covid restricted some aspects that I expected, mainly sitting area both in and outside which whilst didn’t ruin the stay it’s fair to say it marred it. Comfortable bed and a very good shower were provided I would like to see a decent size TV if I returned. Tim the owner is very attentive and available his breakfast was incredible, we stayed 3 nights and 3 breakfasts were extremely delicious.
