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 KingdomAll was great
The Stable was light and bright, well decorated with a fully equipped kitchen. The bed is very comfortable. The view out on to the garden is lovely. Also ate at the Horseshoe- tasty food and good service.

United KingdomThere was nothing that we didn't like!
Our stay at The Horseshoe was perfect. A lovely space with everything that we needed. Check in was quick and easy. As it's attached to the pub, we were worried that it would be noisy - in fact, it was quite the reverse! It felt very private and quiet. The food in the pub was excellent.

United KingdomNot much really but possibly they could update TV so you can mirror any devices or USB plug in.
Great base for walking with dogs, Crinan canal 5 minutes away as well as plenty of stone circle sites and other historical locations. Food at Horseshoe Inn was best I have tasted in a long time and good value too. Paul was a great host taking time to ensure your stay was enjoyable and all other staff very friendly. The stables was clean and basic enough with all you need for a comfortable stay if you are doing self catering.

United KingdomThe heating is controlled from the Pub and although the radiators were on and hot, the space was cold. The Barn is a big space and even with the additional radiator provided it was cold. The decoration was great and there are some wonderful skylight windows but that added to the feeling of being cold. Not sure it helped having rained for 3 days straight either.
I have stayed at the Horseshoe previously and must admit it took me by surprise that there is only the barn conversion offered now. Had I read the instructions properly I would have know that and been more prepared. Its a great idea the way it is and having a fully functional kitchen so that you can do your own thing, would work for most. Evening meals are still offered and the ones I had were tasty and plentiful For business travellers that need a quick start to the day it means getting breakfast on the move

United KingdomThe only improvement I would suggest is the wifi - it worked well in the kitchen and living room but did not reach the bedroom. As I had no mobile signal in the area I was relying on the wifi.
The cottage was perfect for my needs, the kitchen had everything necessary for cooking. Bedroom was very comfortable and the extra heater was a nice touch. Great location for getting around Kilmartin Glen and Lochgilphead.

United KingdomA smoke alarm beeping needed a battery replaced alough this was resolved quickly. Not as warm as expected and although we had an extra electric heater the air still felt cold. Though I must say we have had extremely low temperatures in this area at this time of year.
Breakfast was made in the overnight stay by ourselves as its late season we didn't get to sample the homemade food.
