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.).

Wonderful hosts, and a beautiful peaceful setting. We stayed in the suite with garden view which was gorgeous. The hot tub jacuzzi hire for the evening, set in a seculded part of the garden was romantic and relaxing. Breakfast was lovely. We would love to visit again.

United KingdomNo complaints at all.
Breakfast was exceptional and always provided more that could eat. Had an early morning start when leaving, 0500, with breakfast was being provided ready the night before so could leave on a full stomach. I believe this is the third stay now and normally when away always want to try somewhere new. Hosts are fantastic, always felt looked after and nothing is too much trouble.

Exceptional attention to detail , immaculate property with a great history, luxurious, comfortable, location, style and space , warm welcome from the hosts. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful, and the access to the communal kitchen was a welcome addition. Over the years we have stayed in many individual properties in the UK and abroad and this has to be up there with the very best …. Thank you James and Beverley for such a warm welcome.

Wow! What an amazing place to stay. In the country and in peaceful surroundings. Fabulously comfortable bed, good room size and natural light, very nice bathroom. Quality everything from linen to in-room facilities. Fresh fruit, tea, coffee, biscuits, cereal and yoghurt..plus a further delicious breakfast served to the room at a time of our choosing. We had easy access to a shared modern kitchen had we wanted to self cater. The professional and discreet attention to detail by Beverley and James is probably the best we have ever experienced.

United KingdomNothing! We love it there.
Everything. Beverley & James are there to welcome you in and are always a phone call or message away. This is our third time staying here and on each stay we are always showed around the room and asked what time we would like breakfast. The room/ bathroom is always clean and the fridge/ counter too is stocked with everything we need. This time round I had forgotten to mention my Oat milk request & Beverley had kindly referred to her previous notes and stocked up for me on arrival. We plan on staying again and making use of the hot tub facilities as on the three stays it’s been for weddings. We’ve recommend them to all our friends and if you are attending a wedding we can’t recommend Pete at C&L cars enough!

United KingdomThere is nothing not to like!
The accommodation is spotless, so comfortable spacious and airy. The location is peaceful with walks on the doorstep and many lovely places to visit within easy reach by car. We stayed in the gable ended room and the views are so relaxing. We enjoyed a perfect breakfast of warm pastries, toast, yoghurt, and cereal. Warm pastries bought to our room at the time we requested. A bowl of fruit was also a lovely touch. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room, with fresh milk in fridge with water and fresh orange juice. Dressing gowns, slippers, lovely bathroom toiletries, individually wrapped eye masks provided, good hairdryer and lovely quiet fan provided; truly a 5* experience! Can not recommend a stay at the Pannels enough, so glad we have found this special place. Beverly and James are such lovely people who are exceptional hosts. We will be back for another stay. Thank you for a lovely break.

Such a great find - the whole set up was great: big comfy bed, lovely shower, smart telly, nice toiletries and thoughtful attention to detail throughout. Breakfast was so cute. There was cereal, yoghurts, tea, coffee, orange juice, milk, jam, butter in the room and then the hosts brought fresh pastries and toast in the morning and we could have breakfast sat on the patio in the sun. Really peaceful location and lovely building.

Beautiful surroundings. Sympathetic conversion of barns to living area. Clean and not cluttered at all. There was fresh coffee to make in a cafetiere which was a plus for me. The range of toiletries was good quality and the shower powerful. The host, Bev, was friendly and explained all without being overbearing and a nuisance, just the right amount of courtesy!
