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 KingdomTip about towels - a small teatowel size for use as hand towel for 2 not ideal. One nice bath sheet but then other was just a bath towel! No teatowel in kitchen, but we didn't use enough pots to put dishwasher on.
The cottage was lovely and cosy, had just about everything needed for a short break. Good location for exploring the area. Would recommend.

United KingdomThe approach to the property was untidy and could have done with a dose of weedkiller. The availability of parking was an issue. The possible road parking highlighted area on the information did not exist. Few TV channels available especially upstairs. Top rail on spiral staircase broken
Excellent location in Sedbergh. Really exactly as advertised so we knew what to expect.

United KingdomStaircase was a little difficult to get up with a bag and might be difficult for those less mobile. I struggled a little.
Location was excellent, especially for the event I went to see. Wouldn't usually stay in a self catering cottage, but actually really liked the option to make own meals and watch TV with me being the only one to consider.

United KingdomThe signal was rubbish on the TV, we couldn't watch anything in real time so had to watch catch-up We were left two towels only in the bathroom (none downstairs in the kitchen) which is not ideal for hair washing or drying hands. We did however, find a small odd one in the bottom drawers, but still not enough. Also be aware that most of the pubs and fish and chip shop close at 7:30-7:45 for food, as we found out on arrival of our first night there!
The cottage was great and well designed and it was lovely to come home to a cosy cottage after being out all day. It was really quiet and we couldn't really hear any noise from traffic etc. The kitchen was well equipped, although probably could have done with a couple more mugs to save on washing up. The bed was super comfy and we have enough space in the wardrobe and dresser to put all our clothes etc. The parking was fine, we parked in the car park a few minutes away, which was about £5.50 for all day, but if you arrive after 6:00 and leave before 9:00, it is free. Lovely pubs in the village to have a quiet drink and eat in, with great food. I will definitely book again if I am visiting the area in the future
