Our rabbit Stormy stayed at The Warren for a week and had a fabulous time. We highly recommend booking in with Karen. She gave us regular updates whilst we were away including videos and photos which gave us peace of mind as our rabbit does suffer with statis alot which Karen was aware of and has since given us some helpful ways in which we might be able to prevent him been at the vets as often. We were blown away by the Karen's knowledge of rabbits and guinea pigs and it was a massive comfort to us. We would definitely book in again for any time away in the future. Thank you again Karen.

5 From Tim on

Our rabbits, Walter and Willow, stayed at The Warren for 17 days this past August and they had the best time! They had so much space with lots of opportunities for enrichment and were extremely well looked after. We received regular video and picture updates. Karen obviously knows her stuff when it comes to looking after rabbits and because she checked that Walter and Willow were vaccinated before booking in their stay we felt confident that they would be safe in her care! I highly recommend The Warren and would 100% send Walter and Willow there again if needed.

5 From Doug Fairfield on

Our rabbits have stayed with Karen for several years. They're in safe hands. Karen is friendly, knowledgeable about rabbit welfare and so caring. Karen is well organised.She offers consistently high standards of accommodation, care and attention. Accommodation is spacious and clean. There are safe places to nestle in and interesting things to explore. Hay and water are freely available and healthy food is provided. Our rabbits approve & relax.Even the more timid ones thrive. We love and appreciate the settling in videos of our rabbits that Karen shares. We have peace of mind when we're away. We absolutely recommend Karen's Warren as a super place for rabbits to stay.

5 From Helen Tulloch on

My bunnies (aka the furry princes) love to come and stay with Karen for their holidays. They are well looked after. Karen takes time to get to know their personalities. We have tried a few other places for bunny holidays but none have matched the excellent standard of The Warren. The boys have stayed several times and they'll be back.

5 From Julie on

Wouldn't trust anyone else with my two house rabbits. They are cared for so well here, they settle in quickly and don't come back stressed. We get updates on how they are doing - which is hugely appreciated as hard not to feel guilty for putting them in boarding. One of our rabbits has a few health issues and Karen goes above and beyond to make sure she's accommodated to. Couldn't recommend enough!

5 From Grace Oxley on

Our rabbits have had several stays at The Warren & it's great there. Karen offers a choice of accommodation designed for rabbits to feel safe & have room to run around. There's plenty of rabbit friendly "furniture" for them to explore. Food is healthy & regular & there's always plenty of hay. Karen is knowledgeable about rabbit welfare & gives consistently high quality care & attention to her residents. She's friendly, welcoming & reassuring to their humans too! Our rabbits have always been well cared for - which is excellent peace of mind for us. We think Karen runs a good business. Highly recommended.

5 From Helen & Ken Tulloch on

My guinea pigs go regularly to Karen at The Warren for a trim /wash and nail clipping. Also they have holidayed at The Warren this year twice and it takes away all the worries we all have about our animals when you are on holiday yourself. Karen is fantastic with the pets she looks after all there needs keeps a daily check on there health and wellbeing and has a lot of knowledge about the different illnesses that Rabbits and Guinea pigs can suffer from. It's a brilliant place to send your pet for a holiday and the price is more than fair and you get peace of mind. Thanks Karen for your hard work throughout the year and will be seeing you with my Guinea pigs again in 2023.

5 From Brian Wilkinson on

My two piggies, Eric and Rufus, are regular guests at the Warren. The care and attention Karen provides allows worry-free travel for me as I know how comfortable and well looked after they are.

5 From Kirstine on

Home from home for indoor bunnies! I cannot recommend The Warren and the staff hughly enough. They are the reason i can enjoy a holiday. The accommodation is immaculate, fun and spacious. The staff care for them as if they were their own. Lots of love, care, fun, treats are given to each and every individual pet. The knowledge of the animals massively helps me to relax knowing they are in the very best hands. I would not take my rabbits anywhere else!

5 From Samantha Evanson on

Our French lop Dora (the diva!) is a housebunny who needs lots of space as she's big. The Warren provides that space and is certainly luxury. It is home from home for Dora and she is always settled there getting lots of attention. Having a radio/TV is the ultimate in luxury!

5 From Diane Watkins on

Karen is absolutely amazing with my bunny Hope! 100% recommend going to the warren for pet sitting as they will have a brilliant time, not just well looked after but loved and given a luxury experience too x

5 From Phoebe on

I have no worries when leaving my two guinea pigs in Karen's excellent care. One of them is particularly timid and Karen took extra time to make her feel at home. Highly recommended.

5 From Emma Bowers on

Karen was recommended to us by the Scunthorpe rabbit rescue when we rehomed our two rabbits. She has always been organised, knowledgeable and kind when we've needed somewhere for them to stay. I feel totally confident in her care and experience - we wouldn't put them anywhere else.

5 From Zoe Norris on

The Warren is a fantastic place, our 2 Guinea Pigs Flash & Patch love staying with Karen. They have stayed on a few occasions now and the service Karen delivers to her customers is outstanding. I would strongly recommend The Warren to anyone needing boarding for Guinea Pigs or Rabbits. The facilities are excellent, Karen is very kind, thoughtful and professional.

5 From Tracey Harrison on

We used boarding for the first time this August when we finally got away on our pre covid holiday. We booked early(is a must as popular) and Karen was lovely from the get go. While away we got lots of updates on how the buns were doing which was lovely. My rabbits enjoyed themselves so much in Karens care they sulked for about a week on their return home. We would definitely use again and recommend to anyone as it takes away the stress of people just popping into the rabbits especially in extreme weather conditions as we had with the heat this summer. It was nice to know someone experienced was taking care of them.

5 From keeley yoward on

Karen has always been wonderful with our Guinea Pigs that have stayed! Definitely recommend, she makes you feel at ease that they are happy and enjoying their stay! The spaces for them to stay are amazing and is like a 5* hotel for Guinea pigs & Rabbits! Our girls Athena & Aphrodite who we adopted from Karen after loosing one of our girls absolutely love returning for their holidays! Thank you so much!

5 From Hannah on

When you take your Rabbit or guinea pig to The Warren you can be totally rest assured that they will get 5 star care. For my rabbits over the years I can honestly say that Karen is simply the best , most knowledgeable and caring person for your pets, I wouldn't take them anywhere else if I could give The Warren 10 stars I would.

5 From Diane on

The Warren is honestly the best boarding facilities I've ever had the pleasure of using. I was so nervous to leave my Guinea pigs but the videos we received calmed our nerves and we picked up two very happy and healthy pigs. This lady is nothing short of Mrs Doolittle!

5 From Sally Cocker on

Home from home for our housebunny Dora (the diva!). She is a huge French lop so needs plenty of room and she gets that here. The care is exceptional and the accommodation fantastic. The word 'Luxury' is correct at The Warren

5 From Diane Watkins on

Our guinea pigs, Geri and Figgy, have just come home from their first stay at The Warren. Karen took excellent care of them, making sure they were happy and content. We loved the video updates. We've just booked for Christmas - we wouldn't leave our guinea pigs with anyone else. First class service and care. Thank you Karen.

5 From Catherine Eariss on

We have used The Warren on a number of occasions over the last 2 years and the standard of care and service has been excellent.

5 From Barry Abraham on

Amazing place for small furries to stay, my guinea pigs stay her when we go on holiday and I wouldn't choose anywhere else. As a vet nurse, care and welfare is essential, happy home from home and Karen is so caring and lovely

5 From Lynne P on

If you want absolute peace of mind that your pets are looked after superbly while you have your holiday then The Warren is the only place I would board my rabbits. Karen is not only a very caring and lovely person but she is very knowledgeable and goes above and beyond to look after your pets as if they were her own. My rabbits are so well looked after that I'm sure they look forward to having their holiday at The Warren.

5 From Diane Playford on

My little bunnies had a fabulous stay at The Warren. It was their first time away from home and Karen ensured they felt safe and secure for their stay. They settled in so easily and this was made all the easier by some tasty treats :) I received several photos and videos of them whilst they were there and this was so great to manage my own peace of mind and know that they are happy whilst I'm away! Definitely recommend!

5 From Lucy on

Great service with roomy lodges and daily updates and videos of how the bunnies are doing! Highly recommend

5 From Dan on

Just picked the boys up after a week at the Warren. They always enjoy going to visit 'Auntie Karen'. They fall asleep in their carriers on the way home so are clearly relaxed. I wouldn't use any one else to look after my guinea pigs, always first class service, excellent accomodation and a 5* rating from Bobby,Paul, Neville, Wolfie and Womble. If anyone is doubting leaving your pets here then have no worries, they will be receiving the best care.

5 From Tracy Stevens on

Mrs Doolittle is the only description for the thoroughly beautiful lady. Both my guinea pigs were meticulously cared for and nurtured during our 3 weeks away. This lady adores animals and boy doesn't it show! Your precious pets will be cared for at a five star level. Def recommend!

5 From Sally Cocker on

My rabbit Harvey loves staying at the Warren.He has a lovely room with all his home comforts and lots of love and cuddles from Karen. I can really relax knowing his in good hands when I am away.

5 From Sara on

My 4 rabbits recently came back from their holiday at The Warren and I certainly recommend everyone to board their rabbits and guinea pigs there. Karen that owns The Warren is very knowledgeable and gives excellent care and spacious homely environments for your pets. Pictures and videos are sent to you so you can see how they are settling in and that they are well cared for. The measures in place for covid 19 are excellent standards too. Have used The Warren for a few years s now and will definitely carry on in the future.

5 From Jill Bell on

We cannot recommend Karen and The Warren enough. Our two bunnies absolutely love going. We love getting the video updates of the girls being pampered whilst on holidays. Whenever we have dropped them off they happily hop off to their adventures and on return are very happy relaxed girls.

5 From Emma Jones on

First class service. Karen treats my rabbit the way I do with lots of care and love. Would highly recommend.

5 From Carol Robinson on

This is a five star boarding home for your pets, my rabbits have always been superbly looked after over the years. I can thoroughly recommend this place if you care for you small furries as you will have total peace of mind that Karen will take care of them. Super holiday home for your pets while you have a holiday too.

5 From Diane Playford on

Thank you Karen for providing such a 1st class experience for our two Guinea Pigs, Carlos and Pablo. It was the first time we had left them for over a week, but we were able to relax completely knowing that they were in such good hands. The Apple Suite they stayed in was home from home, with lots of tunnels and cosy places, and lovely food! They were so well looked after, I would recommend The Warren to anyone looking for a lovely experience for their pets while they are away!

5 From Wendy Leslie on

Just picked up piggies and bunny from yet another lovely holiday from The Warren. Karen is fantastic, full of knowledge and it makes it so much easier to go away on holiday knowing our well loved pets are getting such love and attention. We recently lost one of our bunnies due to ill health, Karen has been brilliant in giving advice on how to make life easier for our remaining bunny who has been grieving for her friend. While away on holiday, she has had such a fab time she is nearly back to her diva self! Wouldn't dream of taking them anywhere else now.

5 From Sarah Komar on

Our 2 rabbits Daisy and Harry have boarded with Karen twice now. I highly recommend her as our 2 as looked after so well, I have no hesitation leaving them there. The accommodation and care she provides is fantastic.

5 From C Langfield on

Karen has looked after our 10 month old bunny 4 times now and she has just come home from a 3 week stay. Karen and her team are so attentive to Jess' needs and know her so well that I know she is looked after brilliantly. Her accommodation is spotless and well maintained and Karen has such a passion for her job. 😊

5 From Deb Robinson on

Thank you Karen for looking after my Pippa and Bowie again, you are their second mum x going away is so much easier knowing their been cared for by such a lovely caring lady.....thank you once again xxx

5 From Joanne on

Our guinea pigs love Karen and being at The Warren - they don’t particularly want to come home at the end of their stay! They are looked after and cared for so well it’s like their own 5 star all inclusive holiday! It is always spotlessly clean and they are given loads of hay and fresh fruit and vegetables and, of course, cuddles! We would not use anywhere else.

5 From Lesley Ackrel on

This is an excellent service run by extremely knowledgable and caring staff. I would thoroughly recommend to others. My guinea pigs are well cared for in spotless accommodation.

5 From Beverley on

My 2 guinea pigs have been to stay with Karen twice now and are due to go again next month. I talk about their holiday as much as our holiday, as it really is like taking them to a hotel. You know as soon as you walk in that Karen knows and loves her guests. Before we found Karen our boys were clearly unsettled when they came home from boarding but I'm certain when they come home from being looked after by Karen that they wish they could go back. Plenty of space, lovely fresh food, lots of company and a new clean bed twice a day...I can say with honesty that they don't get that well looked after at home. Oh and you get videos and photos of them while you are away, so you can see what a lovely holiday they are having. Let Karen look after your small furries, you won't regret it

5 From Amanda on

Recently boarded our buns with Karen for a week our third time and thankfully Karen is someone committed and completely focussed on them being happy and safe. I may travel nearly and hour to get to her but I couldn't see them being looked after by anyone else and the caring and support doesn't stop there I have numerous times asked advice and avoided the stress of vets a few times and learnt how to help them and make their lives more enjoyable being rescue bunnies am so glad they came into our lives and I would ask anyone if you are looking at taking on a bunny and Karen doesn't have any adoptees available I'm sure she can help you as she also dedicates time to giving these homeless bunnies and guinea pigs somewhere safe until there forever homes are found. So keep being you Karen you do a fab job and any one considering boarding somewhere special for your bunnies or piggies get in touch Karen will really spoil them.

5 From Julia on

What can you say about Karen, she's a wonderful caring and very knowledgeable pet carer, who you can be assured will look after your small furries. I always feel completely happy to leave my two rabbits Lily and Jet at The Warren, they are always happy and healthy in Karen's Care. If you want to go on a much needed holiday your rabbits or Guinea pigs will have a five star holiday too. Thanks Karen at The Warren

5 From Diane Playford on

Amazing, I couldn't fault the Warren if I tried! The facilities are immaculately clean, spacious and absolutely perfect, Tonks and Arthur had a perfect honeymoon together during their stay. Karen is so genuine, caring and animal-orientated - making the rabbits stay as comfortable as possible is clearly her top priority, and her knowledge and skill is fantastic. I honestly feel 100% relaxed leaving my precious babies with Karen, as I know that they are in the best hands.

5 From Sam wilson on

The Warren is the best place for my bun to go for short weekend breaks to a few weeks holiday. Karen is so lovely and is very good with the bunnys. She knows exactly what she is doing, and i wouldn't take my bun anywhere else. Thank You !

5 From Olivia on

The Warren is a brilliant pet hotel. Karen is so kind, attentive and knowledgeable. She offers a real home from home and posts regular videos and updates so you can see how your pets are while you are away. Karen is very accommodating and the facilities are fantastic. Perhaps we should keep this gem to ourselves in case she gets too busy!!!

5 From Claire on

Karen is the best per carer I have ever encountered. These are the facts that make her outstanding: 1.excellent facilities : clean, well kept , feels like home, spacious. 2. A true knowledgable animal lover : her experience with rabbits and small pets is very handy as a new owner. 3. Keeps you posted on Facebook with pictures . 4. She is always available for questions. 5. She gives love to your pets 6. They have a varied diet of fresh veg with her 7. Your pets will truly be in a second home and might not even miss you (mine didn't , and it's good as it means they were happy ) 8.truly personalised service 9. Very friendly Thanks a lot for all your help with my rabbits . 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

5 From Marivi on

I highly recommend Karen and The Warren. It's a real home from home for my 4 house rabbits. When I take them there I am confident they are being cared for and loved and that Karen has the expertise to spot any problems, such as onset of GI stasis, and the ability to deal with this with the help of her vet. I can be worry free on holiday now knowing they are in her hands.

5 From Lynne on

The Warren is absolutely great. I've been taking my buns there for just over a year and I cannot recommend Karen enough. She is just so caring and considerate, I have 100% confidence in her looking after my babies. She is the perfect small animal host, she knows just what they need and how to handle them. The perfect home from home!

5 From Katy on

Our guinea pigs spent their holidays with Karen and they were treated like royalty. Not sure if they really wanted to come home they were so spoiled. A plus to the service was receiving photos and little videos of them whilst we were away so that we could see how settled they were

5 From Denise on

Suzy and Sampson have just enjoyed another stay in Cabbage Cottage which is a home from home environment for them and now with the added bonus of heating - fab for the buns and a comfort for us knowing they are snug on these very cold nights. I can only praise Karen's set up at The Warren, the place is meticulous with every detail thought about. If it were a hotel it would be 5* plus a Michelin star for catering. Happy buns = happy holiday.

From Wendy Wem on

Karen was so easy to talk to so welcoming and really helpfull our bunnies were rescued and trying not to put them in any more situations that could cause any more stress to them The Warren is a true haven . I worried until I saw the first video of them happily munching away together and was such a relief but Karen soon noticed when they did have a wobble and she quickly gave them alternative accomodation in a larger space and bunnies both happy spent the remainder of their hols having a blast. Karen is not your ordinary boarder she has true passion for these bundles of fluff and spoils them rotten she is a true gem aswell as boarding she also there to help those in need of forever homes and she really is a silent hero. I advise only one thing get in quick and you will be so glad you let Karen look after your bunnies or guinea pigs :)

5 From Julia -Shadow and Coco on

Thank you so much for the superb service from Karen for Maisie & Bertie. The large heated Apple apartment was fantastic and the attention given (Christmas presents on Christmas day) was better than the Savoy hotel! I can not imagine a better hotel in the country for my lovely furry friends. Thanks again Karen

From Caroline Posliff on

It looked like my bunnies had an enjoyable stay in cabbage cottage from all the photos and videos Karen posted on Facebook during their stay. They were collected and dropped off by Karen with no problems. It was nice to know they were in good hands with someone with plenty of experience as one of my bunnies has been prone to health problems in the past. They even got a Christmas treat bag on Christmas morning. All in all I would definitely trust Karen with bunny sitting for my next trip away.

5 From Claire and Ben on

This lady is literally the small animal whisperer. My guineas stayed with her and I could not have been any happier. I received videos of them whilst away and upon collecting they literally looked delighted in their spacious homes. This lady is second to none!!

5 From Sally Cocker on

We have used Karen's boarding facilities for two summer holidays now and it is outstanding in every way. The care, love and space she provides to guests is the best you could find anywhere, we wouldn't leave our 4 rabbits anywhere else. Knowing you can see updates of your rabbits holiday on the Facebook page makes for a relaxing holiday for us, knowing they are in good hands.

5 From Joanne Ward on

My 5 month old bunny Bella stayed at the Warren for 16days in one of the apartments there whilst we went on holiday. Karen who runs the warren was absolutely fantastic; she is very knowledgeable about rabbits and we just knew Bella would be in very good hands. Karen sent us regular video updates of Bella which reassured us our bunny was settling in and enjoying her holiday too! I had mentioned to Karen when dropping her off that I would eventually like to get Bella a companion in the future but I knew it wasn't an easy job to bond rabbits so wasn't really sure how to go about it. Karen messaged us whilst we was away advising us she had found Bella a match- Freddie who needed a new home asap. I agreed for Karen to bond them both and it was a success! So I picked up two very happy loved up bunnies - Bella and Freddie the perfect match! Karen was also so kind to lend us a pet carrier when we stupidly had forgot ours when picking the happy couple up after their holiday. Thank you so much Karen- highly recommended.

5 From Samantha Cook on

My bunny Harvey has been boarding with Karen when we are away. He is very well looked after with lots of love and nose rubs. He has lots of room and toys to play with and Karen posts daily videos and updates on Facebook so you can see how your bunny is doing. It's really nice to see. I would highly recommend The warren and give it 5stars.

5 From Sara on

Just collected my guinea pigs after a short stay here. Karen is passionate about what she does,and it is very obvious this is not just a job. The whole place is spotless. The whole family loved seeing the pictures and videos on facebook. Thsnkyou Karen and family,you will definitely be seeing us again

5 From Tracy Stevens on

Just picked up our bunnies after they spent 10 days at Karens. From dropping them off to picking them up I'm pretty sure they have really enjoyed it! Karen is very enthusiastic about the welfare of all the rabbits and it's clear to see when you first arrive. We felt very assured knowing the rabbits would be left with someone who knew what they were doing, what to look out for and would be able to sort anything while we was on holiday. Karens knowledge and dedication is pretty impressive. We received regular updates via Facebook on how the rabbits were settling in and what they were up to whilst away, they even had their room upgraded! On collection they looked totally relaxed (as did all the guests) and I would have no hesitation in recommending Karen and the warren to any one and will definitely use again.

5 From Tom on

I completed a veterinary school placement at The Warren, and Karen spent the week teaching me how she cares for her guests. The sheer amount of thought, compassion and detail that goes into the care of your pets is absolutely outstanding. Everything is thought of, and guests are treated as unique individuals. Would absolutely recommend Karen to board your pets with - highest welfare possible!

5 From Elise on

Many thanks to Karen for the 6 star service provided to Bertie & Maisie. These bunnies have thoroughly been pampered and entertained throughout the recent two stays. Karen is extremely knowledgeable about rabbits and has provided me with useful advice. The regular You Tube videos were a very pleasant surprise and I have now booked another guilt free holiday knowing they will stay in this expertly run hotel!

5 From Caroline Posliff on

Suzy and Sampson have just had their first stay with Karen. They stayed in Cabbage Cottage which gave them the space they are used to. They settled in really well and were thoroughly spoiled during their stay. The regular facebook updates from Karen were lovely to see how they were getting on. Safe to say we all enjoyed our holidays. Buns are now on an improved diet and will be back in June. X

5 From Wendy on

Home from home for my 8 Guinea Pigs! Wonderful set up & regular updates from Karen. Happy Guinea Pigs & peace of mind for me. Highly recommend!

5 From Caroline on

This small animal boarding facility is fantastic. Karen is like a rabbit whisperer and taught me a lot about rabbits and how to make them happy. She clearly cares, and the animals are clean and well looked after in spacious accommodation! I don't normal do reviews, but credit where due.

5 From Cheryl on

Highly recommended for folk with small friends who would like to be well looked after when you want a few days off.

5 From Roy Tippett-Wilson on

Lovely surroundings for your Rabbit whilst you are on holiday. Nothing is too much trouble, our rabbit Maisy even had a haircut and is now a happier bunny with her boyfriend Thunper, thanks to Karen. A choice of accommodation for your pets, lovely food and lots of cuddles. Would definitely recommend it 100% to everyone with a rabbit or guinea pig

5 From Elaine Lynch on

Absolutely fantastic place, I would recommend Karen and The Warren to anyone!! It's great knowing my rabbits are in such great hands when we go away and I wouldn't think of sending them anywhere else! It's a mini holiday for them and they love it so much I'm certain they don't want to come home at the end.

5 From Anna on

Would highly recommend The Warren. My rabbits had a fantastic time here whilst we were away, and it was good to know that they were in such good hands and that they would be spoilt as much as they are at home! The Facebook updates from Karen are a great personal touch, and it was lovely to see how happy they were.
