Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomGreat little cottage in a lovely location. It's billed as a two bed but the second bedroom has a mezzanine with a bed and a downstairs with a sofa bed so could totally be a three bed! The owners were lovely and communicative.

United KingdomThis was our second stay and it didn’t disappoint. The accommodation was spotless and had everything you need for your stay. The hosts kept in contact and were easily contactable should we have needed to, which we didn’t. We would definitely recommend Rhosili’s Retreat and will be returning next year.

SpainOne tiny thing, the timer on hot water heater in the kitchen/living was noisy and annoying, even when everything was switched off. It’s quite old and replacing with a newer one could solve the problem.
Cosy and well equipped in a beautiful location

United KingdomGarden size was disappointing, didn’t feel like a comfortable and inviting space . Pillows were not great- lumpy and broken.
Lovely peaceful location, and close to everywhere in the Gower. Hosts were very friendly and quick at responding to communication. Lovely living space. Loved the upstairs space- ideal for cosy movie afternoons and family time.

United KingdomThe garden area was small with artificial grass although was enclosed, not great for relaxing in or for the dogs. However great walks nearby and we were able to stretch the dogs legs in the owners field. This was my only comment rather than a complaint and certainly didn’t detract from our stay.
In a wonderful location great views and lovely hosts.

United KingdomThe small garden area for the property was in shadow when we stayed. It would have been nice to sit out in the sunshine, perhaps this is an option in the summer months, we did go early in Spring.
Great location for exploring the area. Easy to get to Worms Head and the nearby beaches. Some lovely local pubs nearby for food and drinks.

CanadaThe property was excellent, but we had a little difficulty finding it. Our drivers said the sat nav direction was to the neighboring property. Visitors without cars should know that the taxis are hard to come by particularly in the morning, as they are booked for the school run. Also, the bathroom was tricky. It was a big step in and out of the shower, particularly for seniors. A mat and a grip bar would be very helpful.
The loft with the skylight was beautiful. Quiet and private area, lovely helpful hosts and everything we needed in the kitchen.

United KingdomAccommodation was great, only niggle was absence of coffee table so when sat on sofa had to keep hold of your glass or mug.
Location was good. Rhossili is only short drive away or there is footpath close by which leads you there. The cottage had all the facilities you could need, and home was nicely decorated throughout.

United KingdomThere is a lack of instructions in the instruction folder, the provided kitchen equipment is basic plus no washing up bowl or dish drainer. Could have done with a boot tray or large mat by door for wet / muddy / sandy shoes.
Nice and quiet, good location to access the Gower locations we wanted to. We were comfy enough when it was too wet to venture out.
