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 KingdomEverything from start to finish was wonderful. A perfect escape. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, the property was very clean and the facilities were excellent with high end finishing and amenities. Small details made a really nice touch (welcome note, milk in the fridge, local produce). Wish we could have stayed longer!

This stunning place was pure luxury, we stayed for a night. The accommodation is perfect, its modern, clean and so welcoming. The hot tub was amazing - easy to use and keep warm. Lots of towels and robes. We had beauty treatments, which were just perfect. They weren't rushed at all and so perfect.....getting to pick your own oils was a lovely touch as well. I cant thank Louise enough and we are in the process of booking to stay again.

The Barn is designed and furnished beautifully. We were there over Xmas with young children and Louise and Ben are wonderful hosts and had put so much effort into making it feel homely and Christmassy for us with beautiful decorations and a delicious hamper. The hot tub is a wonderful luxury and much appreciated after long days out. We would love to return.

United KingdomFor our 2 night stay there was nothing we would complain about
Lovely property, very private had all the amenities for a really relaxing break. Hosts were onsite and happy to help if we required anything but did not encroach on our privacy. 3 of us had massage treatments with Louise and we were all very happy with our treatment. Nikki from CW6 Kitchen prepared us a wonderful meal, this finished our day off perfectly. Will definitely recommend

United KingdomLots of mosquitos around the hot tub but to be expected on a hot day as right next to farm animals. Would have liked more kindling wood so we could of kept the fires going longer but to be honest it is hard to complain as we had such a lovely time!
High quality finishes in the barn. It felt luxury. Lots of lovely touches with necessity items around the house which weren't expected. Beds and couch were very comfy. Gorgeous bathrooms with plenty of hot water. Smart tv's were bonus. Hosts and pets were very friendly and helpful. Hot tub was lovely and warm on arrival and log fire inside really created a comfy calm atmosphere before bed. We had a great time and I would highly recommend!

Beautiful location, fabulous use of tradition and modern, with lovely touches such as croissants, toiletries, hot tub was great fun, comfy beds and great use of space. Owners really helpful and would definitely recommend . Loved being woken by the cows 🐮😄

United KingdomThe barn was a pleasant surprise with lots of added extras to hand. It had everything we needed and more. The hosts were fantastic and on hand if we needed anything. We booked to have some treatments whilst there and I can honestly say it was such a calming and relaxing experience. The hot tub was fabulous. It is wood fired which was in keeping with the quaint style and cottage atmosphere.

United KingdomNothing! it was perfect! x
Everything about the Barn was perfect. As soon as we arrived we felt at ease and at home. We booked it for the night before my wedding, so myself, mum and sisters stayed over and got ready the morning of! it was just dreamy! The Barn is decorated so beautifully, the kitchen island is made from an ancient florists table, the beds so comfy and the bathrooms stunning. We loved all the luxury touches. The hot tub was so much fun and Louise even left us with wine, chocolate & mince pies and a gorgeous card! There was also all the essentials like milk and bread and tea etc! they had thought of everything! We all had massage treatments with Louise and they were absolutely incredible. She has the magic touch!! We all said it was the best massage we’ve ever had. It had elements of touching pressure points (I thjnk Raki) and it was rly amazing. all in all a fantastic stay, I only wish we could’ve stayed two nights!
