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 KingdomI treated my husband to a Birthday treat away just the two of us. The Old Ningwood Station caught my eye, the location and everything about the place was so beautiful. Amanda was a lovely host. So very kind and helpful and friendly. Amanda suggested the pub to us for dinner on arrival.,The Horse and Groom Pub. She kindly offered to book us a table as the pub gets busy. The food was delicious and and the atmosphere was very friendly and buzzing with lots of happy people. The room we stayed in was spotless. With fresh towels, shower gel and all the other added bits like an ironing board and hairdryer etc. The eye to detail was excellent and also the breakfast Station with added cereals teas and coffee's, with yummy fresh goodies in the fridge. From butter to HB eggs, ham cheese and bread to have some toast in the morning. Jam and marmalade just everything was perfect. Cutlery, plates mugs kettle herbal teas and hot chocolate. Everything was just perfect and more, we both felt right at home. It was lovely and quiet all night, we woke to bird song and a lovely sunrise in the morning over looking the countryside. Amanda also let us stay longer in the morning, just to chill and enjoy. Nothing was to much trouble. Amanda, thank you for such a lovely stay we will most certainly be back again. You made our stay perfect thank you so much 😊 x

United KingdomWe thought it was lovely and what we were looking for. A beautiful part of the IoW, too.
Breakfast was provided and self-serve. There was a deck to the lovely garden where you could sit with a country view. Plenty of choice and, of course, you didn't have to be limit to breakfast time. Th room was spacious, airy and comfortable; the ensuite shower room was modern with an excellent shower. This was a countryside property, very quiet and quite dark which ideally suited us. You could walk in the garden and look at the old train platform and track, which was an interesting feature of the Old Station. Amanda was welcoming and hlpful.

United KingdomNot that it mattered, but the tv didn't appear to have basic ITV/BBC but that may just be because it was too technical and modern for us !! It certainly did not spoil our stay.
We were greeted by our host Amanda and shown to our room. It was a good size with an integral ample bathroom with twin headed shower. Breakfast was continental with plenty of choice of bread and rolls, cereals, ham, cheese, hard boiled eggs and fruit. There was several different teas, coffee, hot chocolate and orange juice. Something for everyone. It is in a fantastic location, especially for train enthusiasts. Would definitely stay again if coming to the Island.

United KingdomContinental breakfast was fine and not a criticism but it might be helpful to ask what items the customers require (a short menu) the next day to avoid restocking items that aren't used.
Beautiful peaceful location in the IOW countryside based in a disused railway station - lovely garden to walk in and plenty of cows in nearby fields - a great base to explore the Island from. Very friendly with local knowledge of here to eat etc and plenty of parking. We also liked the emphasis on environmentally friendly practices.

The B&B owner was friendly and very welcoming and provided excellent cooked breakfasts. The room we booked was very clean and comfortable and had an ensuite bathroom. The B&B location was ideally situated in a very pleasant part of the island and relatively secluded. We had a very relaxing few days stay.
