Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomI really don’t think Liz and Graham could have improved our stay any more than they did. Thank you.
Liz and Graham, the owners, made our stay a very enjoyable experience, they were so friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Whilst Graham made an excellent breakfast, Liz attended to all our needs. We were very pleased to be able to park our car off the main road throughout our stay in an area of the Lake District that can be difficult to park.

United KingdomThe Hosts were so accommodating and engaging and their helpful advice provided us with an outstanding experience for the duration of our stay. They really are two of the nicest people you could ever wish to meet. On this basis alone we have since made the decision to stage an annual stay here. The location is exceptional for a multitude of reasons with local amenities at hand and a short walk to the more boisterous area of Bowness, thusly you can wander down to the tourist areas in no time, but escape back to peace & quiet to relax. The rooms are clean and cosy, and the breakfasts are most delectable. Breakfasts are staggered between guests to allow for the perfect cook for each room individually which makes a great deal of sense. I took my partner Katie for a short break somewhere picturesque and peaceful; little did she know I had an ulterior motive; I intended to find the opportunity to ask her to marry me. This stay made all of that possible and set such a comfortable and relaxed scene for us to unwind and I could not have sought any better in any corner of the land. I haven't the time nor compulsion to explain all of the exceptional qualities of this guest house and its hosts; but rather the compulsion to offer my entire recommendation and allow you to find out some of the nuances for yourself. You shalln't be disappointed at all. Wish we could have sourced childcare for even just one more night; we did not want to leave. Anthony & Katie. PS/ She said yes.

United KingdomIt was so homely, liz and graham made us feel right at home and were really informative about the area. They made recommendations of walks local to us and gave us directions and information packs, we did all of the walks recommended and they did not disappoint. The breakfast was lovely, and coming down of a morning for a chat with Liz and Graham was a highlight. Such a friendly couple! The rooms were really clean and the amenities were great, they asked us regularly if we had everything we needed. It was the perfect place to stay for our weekend away. Thank you so much, we will definitely be returning ☺️

TaiwanNothing to complain about : )
It was the most wonderful stay. Liz and Graham are so hospitality and warm. Liz recommended some nice walks in Lake District and we were satisfied by the stunning views. The room is super clean, neat and lovely, and the breakfast is awesome and delicious. The house is near from Windermere station, only takes about 10 min walks, nevertheless it is rather in a quiet place so we all had good sleep. Theres also cookies and tea and coffee served in room, and also provides water boiler.(very convenient) Thanks for Liz and Graham letting us to have a great memory in UK.

United Kingdom-
Liz and Graham were truly exceptional hosts throughout our stay, who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable at all times. I particularly liked the little touches throughout the weekend which made us feel very much at home, such as being greeted upon arrival (despite us arriving quite late, out of hours) with a pot of tea. The room looked exactly as the photos indicated and all the facilities were top notch. Both hosts were always on hand to give us the benefit of their local knowledge in terms of things to do for the day and I found them to be very personable and down to earth at all times. It's also worth mentioning that the breakfasts were truly exceptional as well. This place really was a joy all round! If you're looking to stay in Winderemere and this place is available, I promise you won't go wrong booking a stay here!
