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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.

Had an excellent break at Horsley Hale Farm. We stayed in the Gatehouse and the property was beautiful and full of character. Stuart and the rest of the team were lovely and couldnt be more friendly and helpful. We will be returning in the near future. Thanks for such a great break.

United KingdomNothing!
We loved EVERYTHING! I honestly cannot fault a thing about our stay. We stayed in the Yurt and it has one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept on. The kids loved feeding the alpacas, and the carp. We hired paddle boards one day and spent a lovely afternoon on the lake. The communal kitchen is incredibly well stocked with all the utensils and pans/dishes you would ever need. The onsite bar/cafe is lovely - if you happen to like cider then please make a point of trying the one made using apples harvested from the site as it's gorgeous (and very cheap too!). We loved our time here and was so sad when it was time to go home. We have already said we will be back next year, and have recommended it to friends and family.

United KingdomCould do with a few more cooking utensils and the mattresses could do with being a bit more comfortable.
The staff were exceptional, friendly, helpful. The place was beautiful, so peaceful, the whole family had a lovely day chilling by the lake, swimming, paddle boarding, the free pedalo’s were a great touch. Cottage was lovely, bigger than expected, it was also nice to be supplied with charcoal, etc for the BBQ.

United KingdomWe could have done with some more blankets and found the safari tent too cold for October - would come back when it's warmer.
Lots to do on site e.g. feeding the fish, the children's toys, the pedalos, feeding the alpacas, on site bar, the fire pits. Felt very remote and secluded. The staff were friendly. Beds were exceptionally comfortable.

United KingdomWasps! There were so many wasps around the lodge and it was really difficult to relax because of them. Also one of our group found some dirty underwear stuffed down the side of one of the beds when they were stripping the sheets which was a bit unpleasant.
Excellent location and spacious safari lodges, lovely lake area and relaxed atmosphere
