kitchen

Had a short break over the Easter weekend. We were in lodge 12 which was in a great location. The lodge was clean on arrival and we found we had all the basics required. (If you are planning on cooking then you might need to bring some kitchen items). 
I would say the lodge has a few little issues - mainly due to age - but nothing that would spoil your stay. We had a lovely stay, I think the only thing that would put us off booking again is the price as it is quite expensive for what you get.

Lovely lodge

We booked Warren lodges through hoseasons.
At a first glance the site looks amazing, very picturesque.
When we arrived, we were given the key to our lodge, and a pass to the gym and swimming pool, which we could use at any time which was great.
We stayed in lodge number 26 (which has already been mentioned on the reviews) as we pulled up in the driveway, we instantly saw cigarette butts on the floor outside the front door, that hadn't been cleaned up, then it just got worse from there...
There were ants on the floor in the living room and bathroom.
we couldn't use our en-suite in the main bedroom, as it was blocked and flooded the bath room when we used it.
we were given no floor towels or hand towels.
I Went to cook dinner on the first night and found that we had no chopping boards, so i rang the main office and we got it the next day...
Opened the cupboards to find a half eaten pack of biscuits, dirty glasses in the cupboard, the oven was disgusting as well.
The floor boards are all loose in the kitchen area, and considering it is a 6 man lodge, there are no where near enough utensils, pots and pans for that many people. We had no bin liners in any of the bins, I know it's a self catered lodge, but it's standard to get at least one bin liner.
In the cupboard there was a cigarette filter on the floor, I could just go on and on.
Some of these issues were sorted on day 2, however we got in contact with hoseasons, to make them aware of these issues, and we managed to get a 10% refund on our holiday from Warren lodges, which was a pittance considering what we've had to put up with.
The worst of all was as we were packing to leave, I noticed something poking from underneath the bed, so I grabbed it and instantly threw it on the floor, as I realised it was a dirty pair of underwear, that didn’t belong to us! I went down to reception and told the women on the desk, and she found it hilarious and was laughing as we told her, no apologies just laughingly telling us that she’ll let the cleaners know… I was not best pleased to say the least.
Definitely wouldn't recommend, and definitely will not be coming back.

AWFUL

This is my 8th visit in as many years. Slightly disappointed as upon arrival no hot water and lodge was freezing. Rang the reception desk who promptly came to sort out. After about 15 minutes they managed to get heating and hot water working and it heated up very quickly. Only 1 bath towel per person provided and no bath mats plus in previous years a little welcome pack of a couple of teabags/coffee/sugar/milk was provided but not this year. Reception told us it was due to cut backs. Staff helpful but I know prices are going up and the same break next year is over £100 more but hoseasons please don’t take shortcuts.

Needs improvement

Not visited yet. Had booked 3 nights in August 22 via Booking.com for £210. After booking i received a text from a man named Lance Middleton (or that is what he told me it was) purporting to be the owner. He had all of my booking information, he stated his reason for contact was to arrange the refundable £100 damage security deposit. Not an unusual request, which i paid to his account. A day later Booking.com cancelled the trip and refunded my £210. When i contacted them they told me the holiday let owners were under investigation but would not go into detail. I have tried many times to contact this Lance on the number he used and have emailed Warren Lodges on their own site. No response…. Conned out of £100 avoid avoid avoid.

Scammers DO NOT BOOK

We stayed in Warren House as a family girls weekend and it was fantastic. The pictures before hand did not do the place justice. It was beautifully decorated throughout with plenty of space and room for everyone (and then some). The views from the hottub were amazing and it was a great place to just relax! Would definitely return! 

Wonderful place to stay!

Stayed at Warren House and it was so much better than we had expected. The house catered for eight of us comfortably as the second lounge can easily be used as a double bedroom if needed on top of the three doubles and single upstairs.  Fab table and comfy chairs in the conservatory looking over the grounds meant we didn’t need to go out to eat and we even managed to see a stoat along with squirrels and a muntjac!   Hot tub was an added treat and many hours were spent just chilling in the tub with a glass of bubbles (plastic of course). There is a pool and gym for anyone wanting to add some exercise to their weekend but a walk over the fields to The Bell pub for Sunday lunch was enough for us. All in all a lovely place to stay and can’t wait to go back.

Lovely Spring Break

We stayed here from Monday - Friday, the lodge we had paid for was a ‘Basset’ which was supposedly the better out of the two? We were over looked all round meaning no privacy if you’re sitting outside on the decking or in the hot tub. We were led to believe the Lodges had brand new Bluetooth speaker hot tubs expect the one we had was old, dirty and most of the jets hardly worked, it was also too cold and you couldn’t adjust the temperature!! The water didn’t drain away from our walk in shower so if you spent any longer than 1 minute you’d flood the bathroom, the dishwasher and fridge front were peeling with burnt/melt marks. The lodge had wooden blinds which were clearly not dusted regularly. The pillows were cheap and lumpy and the curtains were see-through, meaning as soon as it started getting light it filled the whole room, waking us up (if you hadn’t been woken up by the worlds noisiest bed) The TVs aren’t smart so advise bringing a fire stick or something similar if you want to watch Netflix etc, the TVs were placed extremely high on the wall so couldn’t really see it properly. 
There was no where to hang your coats up, only a small clothes horse to dry towels on (no good for the 6 of you) there was very little lightning when going round to our lodge if you were walking back from attending the gym/swim centre which was dangerous. 
Only pros was there was a basket with complimentary tea, coffee, sugar, milk and jams!, The free use of the pool & gym was a bonus! The gym had state of the art equipment in and staff were very helpful and chatty!

OK..

Nice lodge, all you need.  Hot tub was nice, but could have been cleaner. Good walk to the local pub if you go via the road, cut across the fields coming back and it's half the distance.  No local shops etc, so take what you need.

Relaxing break.

I booked this lodge for my dads 50th, the lodge was very clean and well maintain. We mainly booked this because of the hot tub which was amazing. You really need to own a car to be able to go places, signal is also very poor. 

Amazing hot tub 

This our second visit here and our last. We were staying at Christmas with a very sick relative , trying to make Christmas really special. This is probably our last chr
Istmas together so wanted to make things really comfortable and cosy. After arriving we discovered on the first morning that water in both bathrooms did not drain away. This meant we were only able to use one shower and one toilet between 6 of us. Advised reception at 11am on xmas eve and they said they would send someone. Nobody came. After several messages left on emergency number and texts we eventually heard back 3 days later to say sorry but no mention of anyone coming. The bathroom sink and bath were filling up with other people's pubic hair and skin so not a healthy environment for a sick person. On day 4 he got very sick and needed emergency treatment for chest infection and bacteria skin infection. 
On checking out I complained at reception and they really couldn't have cared less. I understand it was the xmas break but the reason you pay the extortionate rates is for the service they provide. We had no service. Have written to Hoseasons and they have shrugged it off saying they are just the agent. We booked with Hoseasons as they are a reputable company but shame on them for passing the buck.

The other areas that need looking are
No shower curtain
No way of lighting hobb, no matches provided.
Decking covered in green so very slippery and dangerous when wet.
Boiler needed service , maintenance
Light on.
Pillows were very poor and on my bed two had been shoved into one pillowcase.
Sofas in lounge take leather and were tired and cracked.
Gym and reception a a tent, nobody advised before we went.

Very little mobile phone coverage.
