Hotels in Cossall

Cossall itself has no hotels, being a hamlet of only a few hundred residents, so most visitors staying overnight base themselves in nearby Ilkeston, Trowell or Nottingham, all within a few minutes' to half an hour's drive. Nottingham offers by far the widest range of accommodation, from budget and mid-range chain hotels close to the railway station and Broadmarsh area to smarter boutique hotels around the Lace Market and Old Market Square, as well as serviced apartments for longer stays. This makes it easy to combine a night or two in the city with a day exploring the quieter Erewash Valley villages, including Cossall's canal towpaths and literary connections.

Those who prefer to stay closer to the countryside will find a smaller number of guesthouses, inns and B&Bs scattered through Ilkeston and the surrounding Erewash villages, generally at lower rates than central Nottingham and better placed for early starts on the canal towpath or for reaching Trowell Country Park. Travellers arriving by car will find Cossall convenient for the M1, making it a workable stopover for journeys between the East Midlands and South Yorkshire, while those without a car can rely on Ilkeston and Langley Mill stations for rail links into Nottingham and beyond, with local buses covering the short final leg into the village itself.
