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.).

United KingdomOnly thing I can fault is there was no tumble dryer, after a wet day we had quite a lot to get dry. But no complaints otherwise.
The location was best, so beautiful and calming, surrounded by Scottish highlands and a babbling glen. So much to do if your an active family.

United KingdomWe would have liked a freezer in the accommodation - the freezer compartment of the fridge was just a bit too small to take more than a couple of items.
Excellent accommodation in a truly beautiful setting. The accommodation was well equipped, exceptionally clean and well presented. Very comfortable beds and good quality bedding and furnishings throughout. We were welcomed on arrival and encouraged to contact the manager/owner if there was anything we needed. The accommodation had the most superb view of the hills and this added to the very special atmosphere of our stay. We enjoyed walking around the local area and cycling on safe and quiet roads. We had a lovely week and could easily have stayed longer. We were sad to leave!

United KingdomAlthough the property was a very good size the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms were a little compact because of size of built in wardrobes.
Fantastic location … real peace and quiet and great views. Great amenities with gardens and stream and pond . Living room, kitchen and bathrooms were all large.

United KingdomOnly small thing I would add would be perhaps a small fence around the lodge - as we came with our dogs this would help keep them enclosed in the lodge area better and let them be off the lead without roaming around the property. And maybe a BBQ for guests to use :)
We stayed in Frances Sketch Pad for three nights and it was fantastic! The Lodge itself is clearly finished to a very high standard with breathtaking views over to Ben Nevis. It can be hard to find somewhere that has the luxury feel and be dog friendly at the same time, but they have nailed it here. The hot tub is amazing & is the perfect spot to relax after a day of walking. Morning coffee sat with the bi-folding doors open, looking out to the hills was just bliss! We had a very warm welcome from the hosts who chatted over the lodge and gave us recommendations for local dining etc. Would highly recommend for a couple getaway.

United KingdomThe pillows weren’t very comfy. The window beside the bed let a lot of light in as the blind was not black out.
The view is absolutely stunning! The lodge was incredibly clean and had a fantastic design and layout. The kitchen had everything you need. The hot tub was fantastic. The staff were very friendly!

SwedenInternet was a little patchy. Heating is controlled outside the property..
If you are looking for a place to disconnect from the world this is a great choice. The purpose built lodges provide a front row view to the surrounding nature, which is breathtaking. The accommodation is well equipped with dishwasher and washing machine. Internet connection is a little patchy but was fine as we wanted to disconnect. The rooms are small but there is really no need for anything larger as you are unlikely to do anything but sleep in them. The estate staff were friendly although often took a couple of hours to respond. Certainly would recommend the location and the accommodation to others.

Saudi ArabiaThe price was quite high compared to the services provided. Additionally, the water available in the cottage was not very clean and seemed to come from the nearby rivers, which affected our experience.
the cottage is situated in a wonderful location in the heart of nature, providing a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere away from the city's hustle and bustle.

United KingdomLacked some attention to detail that you would expect for that price point e.g some lights not working, some basics provided but no welcome hamper/treats, lots of “instruction” notices. We were lucky enough to have great weather but the lodge was boiling and too hot to sleep in. Needs a mobile air con unit or two way insulation for hot days (although may be rare in Scotland it made the lodge unliveable)
The location of the lodge was amazing. Very peaceful, beautiful location and the stream next to it was stunning

AustraliaAlthough it says only 15 min from fort william, that drive is a shared little path, often the trucks scooting down the path towards you. 25 min is more realistic and even then it is so stressful, u minimise going out at all. Good if you just want to hole up for the weekend though
The fireplace and the view was lovely Fully equipped kitchen with laundry services

United KingdomThe property was beautiful and we had a fabulous stay. I would suggest the property has signs making drivers aware of the 5mph speed limit and that animals are running free in the area. The property was excellent and the hot tub was a fantastic extra.
