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 can honestly say there was nothing to dislike. Will definitely go back there.
Everything about Dunsford was brilliant. The hosts Debbie and Keith were fab, nothing to much trouble. We were made to feel very welcome. Breakfast amazing, room spotlessly clean, location spot on.

Dunsford boasts a great location on a quiet street close to town centre, which is the perfect base for exploring Keswick and the Lake District. The room and facilities were perfect. It's a very well run business, with every possible need catered for. The amazing and delicious breakfast really sets you up for a day of hiking. Saving the best for last, the hosts Deb and Keith are the warmest people you will ever meet, going above and beyond to deliver the perfect vacation. I highly recommend a stay at Dunsford, and hope to return myself one day soon.

United KingdomThere was nothing I could pick as to say if it just had that. Attention had been thought of on all little details. Even down to little scissors to open sachets of tomato or brown sauces at breakfast as they can be tricky to open. Was just lovely.
Deb and Keith were very welcoming. Helped with our bags very easy to get on with. Nothing was too much trouble always making sure we were OK. Breakfast was amazing. I don't eat a lot but my husband had full English brkfast couldn't fault it. Extra little touches were lovely. Room was fab, clean, tea coffee hotchocolate to drink. Sweets biscuits. Absolutely beautiful. Both were lovely felt like friends. Will definitely be back. 😊

United KingdomOnly minor issue is the parking to the rear could potentially get a little tricky to navigate if you had a larger vehicle. BUT - Deb and Keith are brilliant with communicating and coordinating guests to avoid block ins, and we certainly had no issues when we were there, and for a normal sized family car you should have no issues.
Deb and Keith are wonderful hosts and all round lovely people with a huge passion and pride for their home and their town. They gave us advice on where to walk, where to eat, and made our short stay better for it. Dunsford is clean, comfortable with a perfect location and all the facilities you could need. The private parking is a big plus as well. Thank you again for a great stay!
