Nice location and lodge. Lodge looked a little worn in places, in need of bit of renovation. Lodge was not very clean. Not all areas were swept or vacuumed and was lots of dust. Dishwasher also leaked.

Facilities in the lodge were excellent. There is a small shop for necessities but we never used it as we bought everything we needed en route. The idea of visiting Wareham Lodge Retreat is to relax and enjoy the quiet and peaceful surroundings. Whilst here we visited Poole and Swanage, both within a short drive and then Weymouth. We enjoyed all these places.Friendly helpful staff and lovely surroundings what more could you want!!!Can’t wait to visit again Thank you 😊😊
