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 - this suited our needs snd we loved the cottage feel with all its quirkiness.
The cottage was cosy, peaceful and perfectly located for our needs- exploring the local area and into the Lakes. Debbie couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. The outside area and canopy were a real bonus for sitting out and enjoying the views. Everything was comfortable and well presented. The local pub is in walking distance and serves delicious food in a friendly atmosphere .

United KingdomNothing really - only thing if I was to be super picky, as it's a beautiful old cottage, the beams are a little low in certain areas, and the stairs are steep. My husband is 6ft so he was careful when moving around, however this is detailed and shown in pictures and luckily didn't cause an issue for us. Would not put us off from coming again as we really enjoyed our stay.
Great property in a beautiful, quiet countryside area, tucked away. Facilities were great, super comfy bed - Perfect for couples! Lovely hosts who we met and were super friendly and helpful. This was our base for exploring the Lake District - with everything within pretty much an hour of the property.

United KingdomThe stairs, they are pretty steep
Loved the view from the garden when sitting under the pagoda, loved the attic bedroom, and having my own car parking space. The location is great as well because you are only a 40 minute drive from either the pennines or the lake district.

United KingdomAll reviews mention the steep stairs but not a problem for us. Banged head a few times on bedroom ceiling but hosts had padded beam at top of the stairs. We’re only 5’2” so low bedroom ceiling ok but anyone much taller might have a problem
Beautiful location and cottage tastefully decorated. Chocolate biscuits in kitchen when we arrived was a nice touch.

United KingdomIt is pet friendly but not necessary pet suitable. I missed the info about steep stairs so it was my mistake but my 30kg Labrador could not go up or down on them.
Cute little place, very cozy and comfortable. Very clean and provided all necessary facilities. Little garden on the back which was very good for our dog and to sit down and rest after long day.

United KingdomThe stairs were fun! just because of how clumsy i am i’d say maybe look into added another railing on the other side but honestly they’re manageable so it’s not a big thing!
what a beautiful cottage! i really enjoyed my stay here, it was lovely and cosy, i was only stopping over for the night on my way up to Scotland. I think it was an absolute bargain for what you get, completed kitted with all the things you could possibly need in the kitchen, i enjoyed the attention to detail of putting up xmas decorations. it’s one of those where it’s like walking into a homely stay and being instantly comfortable. i think i will be making this a regular stay but would definitely stay for a couple days next time to appreciate the area more! Thank you for having me!
