About Courthouse Cottage

Courthouse Cottage is a charming cottage built in 1852, and former Magistrates Court adjoined to what was once the Eckington County Constabulary Police Station, situated in the heart of Eckington, Derbyshire This delightful cottage is perfect for families or friends seeking a welcoming getaway close to local amenities, as well as those seeking to venture the great outdoors, with close links to Peak District National Park. Upon entering the property, be delighted by the characterful features of wooden shutters, original doorways, sash windows, parquet flooring, and exposed wooden beams, offering a glimpse into the propertyâ€™s historic past, yet seamlessly blending with contemporary appliances needed for an easy and convenient self-catered stay.

The inviting sitting room is adorned with a Smart TV and an electric fire, perfect for those chilly evenings. Draw your attention to the room's unique stone-built wall, originally part of a safe used by the council in its previous life.

The kitchen is a well-equipped space where you can prepare delicious meals to be enjoyed at the dining table, awaiting dinner party natter and family bonding. Or if the weather permits, head outside to your own private garden, and indulge in a hearty meal under the parasol amidst views stretching to the nearby farm.

This spot is the ideal suntrap for watching the sunset, casting a warm glow as you dine alfresco. Afterward, immerse yourself in the inviting hot tub, letting the soothing bubbles and tranquil ambiance melt the stresses of the day.

When it's time to retire for the night, ascend the stairs to discover a light and airy haven, courtesy of the velux windows. Choose between two inviting bedrooms.

The first is a super-king-size room (which can be converted into a twin on request) and the second is a king-size room; both rooms are equipped with Smart TVs for those lazy mornings in bed.

What can I saw about this amazing cottage except wow , every single detail catered for immaculately clean and amazing decor and furnishings , the hot tub was just fantastic the area very quiet the dog next door was reactive but very rarely heard her the view at the bottom of the garden with the sheep and goat and pony is lovely , Nicol was an amazing host and very prompt in her replies was a pleasure to stay and I just have to give a special mention to the amazing glitter carpets upstairs I am so getting them lol

We had a great week and explored some of the walks provided by the owners. The house is great and comfortable and has everything you need. The hot tub was a plus and we even made friends with Rosie the dog next door. Great little holiday and within walking distance of the pub. Lovely stay.

Cassandra

Courthouse cottage was the perfect holiday accommodation. The cottage was immaculately clean, so well decorated and well equipped with everything we needed. The welcome pack was a lovely addition and Nicol was on hand if we needed anything. The bed was the most comfortable weve ever slept in too! WiFi great, location great, and hot tub very relaxing. We wouldnt hesitate to recommend it and would definitely come back again. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday!

Charlotte

Loved the property, the photos don't do it justice!

Hollie

Well where do i start the cottage is absolutely stunning! ! We stayed for 2 nights and wish we had booked for longer. The cottage was very cosy and clean. The hot tub was all ready to get in when we arrived. I dont have one bad word to say about this place. The owner was great too and got intouch on arrival to see if we needed anything. Dont hesitate to book this place, just book it!!!

Angela

The house is tastefully designed, with everything you need. We loved our fresh flowers, jam tarts, bread and milk, and it's spotlessly clean. The owner has compiled a fantastic guide to local attractions, walks and places to eat, and we could take our dog to most of them, who also enjoyed her welcome treats ! There is a 'reactive dog' who resides on the left of the back garden, who will bark, but as we were out all day enjoying ourselves it was not an issue, and we soon realised that hot tub sessions were better in the evenings, when the pretty lights come on and fido was indoors...

Michelle

Amazing cottage , so clean and well equipped you couldnt want for anything

Samantha

We had a wonderful stay at Courthouse Cottage. It is a beautiful place, beautifully decorated and the attention to detail was excellent. Bed was very comfortable as was everything else. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend this place and would definitely come back. The area is stunning and its a great base for everywhere. The owner was great with communication too and made us feel very welcome.

What a fantastic cottage! Everything you could want and more. Communication with owner was great sending details about the local area and the cottage. Local walk to Ford was a great recommendation, we and our pooch had a great time. Would definitely recommend

Rebecca

The cottage was absolutely stunning, super clean, comfy beds. The kitchen was well equipped if you wanted to cook. Hot tub was fab with the beautiful view out the back. Great walks a few minutes away, our Labrador loved it. Renishaw hall is definitely worth a visit, 20 minutes walk from the cottage. Would love to return. Great communication from the owners too. 5 star place

Amanda

We had a wonderful peaceful 4 days at Courthouse cottage. The cottage is very tastefully furnished and absolutley spotless! It was also very comfortable, especially the beds. It had everything we needed and the hot tub was amazing! Perfect home for a peaceful break away.

Caroline

The cottage was absolutely stunning very high quality had everything you needed, extremely comfortable beds, the hot tub was an absolute bonus. The hosts go out of there way to make sure you have a fantastic time, Would definitely stay again

We absolutely adored our accommodation and location . The Court House is simply beautiful, spotlessly clean and immaculately decorated. There were so many thoughtful touches including some local jam tarts and freshly baked bread waiting for us on arrival. The hot tub was also spotless and is lovely and quiet without any intrusion to privacy. Beds very comfortable and bathroom perfect. I find it impossible to give any negative feedback whatsoever. My only helpful suggestion which more a practical one, would be for a water mat to be located at the back door for when moving in and out of the hot tub. Thanks again for our amazing stay and I highly recommend this location and property! We would definitely return.

Absolutely beautiful cottage with plenty of room for 4 1 dog. Really well equipped and lots of storage in the kitchen which is often lacking. Comfy beds, warm during out Winter stay and hot tub was amazing. Plenty of shops, walks and things to see nearby. Thank you!

Katherine

Thank you for a wonderful stay! The cottage was perfect! So warm and beautifully finished. Perfect gateway to the Peak District. The hot tub was such a treat. Just the right temperature in the snow!

One of our best hottub breaks to date. Set in a great area for walks , restaurants, pubs and sight seeing. The stay itself had everything you need, furnished beautifully, the hottub was great also. Our kids loved the little hide away play area in the bedroom with lots of lego and train tracks. Nicole herself was so helpful, great communication. Thankyou so much

Dominique

Courthouse Cottage is a lovely, well thought out, holiday cottage. From a fantastic kitchen to a relaxing hot tub and a garden with grass for the dog. Beds were super comfy and we didnt want to go home. Walking distance to a pub The Mossbrook, Aldi, Coop and takeaways. Some good walks on the doorstep. A short drive takes you to the peaks.

Very well presented and spacious accommodation. Hot tub an additional bonus! Property did a great job for our extended weekend! Thank you!

We had a lovely stay at the court house it is an amazing place everything you need plus more beautifully decorated with fabrics and painted furniture in the bedrooms all rooms are lovingly furnished . We had great days out walking with the bonus of coming back to relax in the hot tub . We will return .

What a beautiful, comfortable, cosy cottage! It is even nicer than the pictures! We had a lovely 4night stay and couldn't fault a thing the kitchen is better equipped than our own at home! Good location. We found lots of nice walks for our dog. The local people we encountered were all really friendly. Amazing hot tub too! Highly recommended.

What a wonderful cottage. We were delighted and will return. Loved the hot tub. It was appreciated after walking up Mam Tor!

Rachael

Superb cottage and host

We were the 1st to stay there and the place was presented immaculately 3 adults 1 dog and the owners were very helpful when needed. Lovely kitchen with all that you could need, even a welcome pack of goodies waiting for us. The beds were nice and comfortable and the hot tub was fantastic and checked every day by the owner. Loads to see and do near by and dog walks available straight from your door. Nice touch printing local map walks for people who stay. Great information book available which was a great help. Many thanks for a great time
