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 KingdomDepending on the upstairs neighbours, it can be noisy. But it was fine after 10/11pm. The sofa bed is a typical sofa bed, and is firm which is down to personal preference.
Amazing location, lovely place with excellent facilties and fantastic shower. It was cosy, well decorated, and kitted out with everything we needed.

United KingdomThe heating was on for our arrival & made the cottage very cosy & welcoming. We found it very well equipped. Great communication from Chris (host) to let us know everything was ready for our arrival. Location was really good for local amenities & walks to the beach. We visited Lossiemouth, Elgin & Portsoy which were close by.

United KingdomThe toilet being straight off the kitchen was off-putting. The bedroom was very small, and having to negotiate steps to and from toilet in the middle of the night was not to our liking. The bathroom towels were very shabby, should be replaced.
It was very comfortable. The living area was spacious, close to all local amenities.

United KingdomBedroom was a bit small but plenty of storage and nicely decorated.
Very pretty cottage, well presented with a great lounge and well equipped kitchen to relax in after a day touring this stunningly beautiful unspoiled village. This part of the world doesn’t have much night life so the kitchen, spacious lounge, tv and comfy sofa was a great way to end the day. The shower was small, that’s unfair, perhaps twee or quirky as it was immaculate and well equipped, and the soft highland water and good water pressure was sublime. This is a very old building I guess around early 1800s but the conversion has been well thought out and done to a very high standard while being respectful to the original building. There is a great fish and chip shop and a nice ice cream place on the Main Street but most shops apart from the close early in Cullen Added bonus was the co op shop (small supermarket) at the end of the street stocked with nice local produce,, if you want to put that kitchen to use. Did I mention that it also has a fgood selection of beers, wines and spirits :) Chris the owner was a pleasure to deal with. Recommended

United KingdomThe wifi appears to be shared with an upstairs property and the signal is not available in the rear half of the property which wouldn't have been a problem except that there is no mobile signal in Cullen. It was easily remedied by getting the wifi password for the hotel bar next door as this had a stronger signal. Bit of a shame there is no outside space for the drying of beach towels, but thats understandable.
A lovely place to stay - quiet, clean, cosy and ideally situated for the many great places to eat in Cullen and a short roll down the hill to that all-important beach. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely return this year
