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.).

United KingdomNo privacy in larger lounge/ kitchen area for chilling/ watching TV. No blinds. People passing by ( there were quite a few )and could see in. Two people saw us sitting and were waving and one even knocked . Friendly enough but I do like a bit privacy especially on an evening when you can't see the view outside.
Liked most of the accommodation for 1-2 nights. However, It was a small bedroom, comfy bed, nice bathroom. Living area good space . However there were NO blinds on the front windows. If you were sitting /cooking watching TV on an evening or during the day. People would pass your door and could see right inside your sitting area/ lounge. No real privacy except in Bedroom/ bathroom.

United KingdomWe were eating at Pine so the location was perfect. On arriving, the room had those little touches I really do appreciate, from a signed bday card to a few basics in the fridge ( including chocolate biscuits ) and the coffee, hot chocolate pots were lovely. The view, we had bunnies and deer walking past which was lovely. Very peaceful. We didn’t realise it came with a hot tub. Which was a nice surprise.

United KingdomI had contacted the owner in advance to ask if anything could be done for my partners birthday as the stay was a surprise. I was told this would be no problem and a note was added to the booking so I was disappointed when there wasn’t anything upon arrival. Just a note saying happy birthday was all I expected so that was a bit of a let down as I would have brought something with me instead if I was told nothing could be done when I asked.
Nice and spacious. Good kitchen facilities. Heating easy to use and nice and cosy for when we got back from Pine.

United KingdomI think it could be better lit around the cabin as it is rural and was difficult to see to make our way from the cabin to Pine restaurant which was purpose of our stay. The great British weather didn’t help that and the road was muddy.
Cabin was very cosy and comfortable with beautiful open views. Excellent shower and comfortable bed. Check in was easy. Clear email with instructions and keys left in door.

The cabin was super smart and felt spacious. We loved the design with modern kitchen and bathroom and relaxing sitting area. All the facilities were fresh and first class. This and the lovely large windows to make the most of the countryside views immediately put us at ease and we felt quite peaceful and relaxed but not overlooked. Thanks to the hosts for the little treat of biscuits and tea and coffee and they’d really thought of everything for the kitchen and bathroom .
