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 KingdomNothing at all .
It was in a magical surroundings, the place was just what we needed for a relaxing time away, everything that you need was at the summerhouse, was greeted by the owners sister on arrival, very friendly and she explained everything to us made us both feel very welcome. Lovely touch with the bread and eggs , loved waking up to the chickens and cows in the next field along. Lots of books and information left by the owners in the property , Just an amazing holiday from start to finish.

United KingdomWhilst not a big deal the sat nav directions keep taking me around in circles so a sign in the village or written directions for arriving would have been fantastic. Similarly I booked what I thought was accessible accommodation but there are 5-6 steep steps up (owners were great and said to use the garden) but something to be aware of if a wheelchair user.
The property is lovely and really well maintained. It’s open plan with an en-suite which was perfect for our stay. It’s very peaceful and there is privacy from the main house which is an added bonus. There was a little welcome pack to get us started and things like a full size oven and fridge made it all the more comfortable.

It was spectacular! Like home from home and then some. It was so cozy and inviting. I didn’t want to go home. Kevin and Michaela were so warm and welcoming and helped me in with my bags on arrival. Eggs, bread and orange juice was such a thoughtful and kind gesture, thank you so much.

United KingdomI had a wonderful stay at Glassonby Summer House, the location is beautiful ,the views are stunning. The hosts are very friendly and accommodating, were available if i needed them for anything, (which i didnt, because they had thought of everything) the house is comfortable and very clean, with everything you would need. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise. The chickens and cats were welcome company. I couldn't have asked for a more idyllic and peaceful holiday. Thank you

United KingdomTravelling all the way from London I was hoping I had made the right choice. This summerhouse however surpassed our expectations! It had everything you can ask for, it is well designed and a lot more spacious than I had imagined. The views are breathtaking and if you are looking for an escape with pure tranquility, bliss and silence then this is the place to be. We sat outside for hours in the evening enjoying the surroundings. The summerhouse itself; bed and sofa were very comfy, tv had Netflix Bbc iplayer etc (managed to watch the euros), kitchen with all the utensils, good size bathroom. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly. The only regret is not booking it for longer! If you genuinely want an escape then this is the place to be 😍

United KingdomIsolated village with no shop for daily papers. Take all you need for your stay with you as several miles to nearest shop and not always in the direction you want to go. The Co-op in Lazonby, with street parking, is however well stocked but be early if you want a Sunday paper.
A good stop over between Scotland and home. Quite compact but very well arranged with quality furniture and equipment. Fantastic view across large garden to the Pennines and beautiful sunsets. The rescue hens laid very good eggs. Lots of information from Michaela and Kevin after a friendly welcome.

Hope to come back here again soon! Owners are lovely and around should you need anything. (The spring lambs playing in the field outside the window was a bonus!)

United KingdomI did make one recommendation to the hosts and this was to maybe have a look at the radiator nearest the door as it was making a constant clicking noise through the night. I am sure they will have sorted that because they were so positive and open to taking this on board. The only other thing I personally struggled with a little was the hieght of the bar stools. If you are like me and very challenged by weight then this probably wont be ideal for eating. I sat on the couch and utilised a table that was placed for effect. So no problem!
A lot of effort has gone into making this accommodation as good as it can possibly be. The layout of the room is excellent. There is a great wood burner which we enjoyed using during our winter stay! The WIFI was good and we enjoyed watching the TV from the nice seating provided. The cooking facilities are brilliant! We did not have any Ketchup and after calling the hosts they immediately brought us a bottle! The hosts are super friendly and very accommodating.
