Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United KingdomLet me say this; it rained almost constantly, yet it is still one of the best breaks we have had. So nothing to complain about from us.
The Shepherds Hut is very special, from the wonderful drive up towards it, the unique and cosy living space, how welcome we were made to feel (thank you Suzy for making it so perfect), and finally the absolutely incredible views!!. This is a weekend break we will never forget.

United KingdomWe didn't really not like anything. It rained abit while we were there so it made things like going to the toilet in the night a little less enjoyable but that was nothing that could be helped.
It was absolute heaven, so relaxing and peaceful. The sweadish bath was lovely and with such amazing views. The shower was so good and hot and a perfect end to the day before getting tucked up. Suzi was so friendly and really made us feel relaxed. We didn't actually see them again after we arrived, but they were always on the end of the phone if we needed anything.

United KingdomErm leaving?
Wow just wow! Absolutely beautiful eco friendly retreat away from it all. Customer service was outstanding from booking, before arrival, at arrival. During and departure! Suzi was so welcoming and chatty. Such a friendly lady and had the pleasure to meet her father too. Booked for our 10th wedding anniversary and will definitely be going back! Not just to Idris but also to camp here with the kids! Beautiful welcome basket with share size bag of crisps, Marshmallows and homemade lemon drizzle cake awaited us on our super comfy bed 🤤🍋 Idris, the Shepherds hut is super comfy and cosy. He really is somthing special. The views from his window are breathtaking! He gets super warm of a evening with mini heater on. I love the touching tribute behind his name 💙 Compost loo and cutest horse box shower room was super clean! First time using a compost loo and I love the idea of it. Was easy to use and smells where minimal! Shower super hot 🥰 Eco toiletries provided (hand wash, hand lotion, shampoo, conditioner, loo roll, room spray, plenty of sawdust and a eco lined sanitary bin) Lovely bath and hand towels provided. Suzi said if we wanted the loo emptied or needed more sawdust to just ask but for the 2 nights stay we didn't need her too. Kitchen area was superb and was well equipped and clean. Hot running water and again, eco products provided (washing up liquid/disinfectant,sponges) mini fridge, gas bbq/stove few cooking essentials also provided oil/seasoning! Kettle inside the hut and in kitchen a teapot and cafetiere provided along side essential teabags,coffee & sugar to have your first few cuppa! Honestly everything you need to cook is provided apart from the food haha! Swedish outdoor bath was amazing once we figured it out. Suzi did demonstrate and was also a vid instruction to follow but did take us clumsy humans a few sacks of wood to get it just right haha.

United KingdomI'm a regular festival goer and used to compost toilets. However, for those who are a little less outdoorsy it might be a slight adjustment.
Loved the hut and surrounding forest. Super peaceful area with lots of bird life and nature. Owners are really nice and friendly, make you feel right at home - plus they offer plenty of tips for places to visit.

HungaryWhat I've missed a bit is a microwave and the warm water at the sink.
The location is excellent. If you know it's a real shepherd's hut with its size and you don't mind the bathroom and toilet being outside, you'll like it. We loved the outdoor hot tub and fire pit, the sunsets, the sunrises, the quiet, the privacy.....everything.

United KingdomSpectacular views! Amazing host, with the most yummy lemon drizzle cake. Eco facilities were excellent, even the compost toilet! The bed was sooooo comfy & cosy I didn’t want to move in the morning, but managed to pull myself out to watch the sunrise & make friends with the sheep. Only a 10 minute drive into Llanidloes, & 30 minutes to Hafren Forest which was stunning at this time of year. Will definitely be returning in the summer!
