Stefan:
If the adapters are in good condition and properly working there will be
negligible loss.

I am in the UK. Would I get appreciable signal loss (e.g. equivalent
to 0.5 of a REN or more) if I use several adaptors on my landline
phone?

By "adaptor" I mean the sort of 2 (or 3) into one adaptor.

I might I have this sort of wiring config (depending on exactly how
many adapters I decide to use):

phone wall socket
--plug---wire---plug--
adapter
--plug---wire---plug--
adapter
--plug---wire---plug--
adapter
--plug---wire---plug--
telephone

For most of the time the adaptors would not actually have any extra
devices attached.

Dan is right. The ringer impedance is at least in the 10s of ohms, and
the adapters should introduce a fraction of an ohm if the connections
are normal/ok.
