Hi,
I've not used the ESP8266 with the CC1101, but here's a link to someone's set-up which gives a helpful pin-out for the connections required:
You'll see from the pic that they used direct soldered wires to connect the two boards which is a simple solution and avoids the problem of sourcing headers/converters for the different pin spacings. I prefer to use use headers and sockets to allow easy re-use and troubleshooting, but it can be a real pain to track down the necessary parts.
My understanding of thigger's set-up is that they modified petep's firmware to work on the ESP8266 and then they used one of the Evohome listener programs, their post mentions "smar's python listener".
I've bought a few different types of CC1101 modules, but here's the one that I would recommend due to pin header and antenna and they seem to work OK at 868Mhz (I've not used this seller though). It's a different layout from the example above, but the pin-out is labelled on the board header:
