Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

AustraliaIt rained all weekend - which was unfortunate for us, our host helped kept our woodpile well-stocked for the woodfire to keep us warm. Maybe a deck of cards or a game or two would have helped keep us entertained for when the weather is unsuitable to be outside. But there was plenty of DVD's to choose from and books to read.
we had ample food left for breakfast - even though they advised it would only be for one morning - we had enough left over to roll over to the next morning for the four of us.

AustraliaIf you only book out one barn you will be sharing the outdoor space with other guests so keen that in mind if you want something completely private.
Beautiful location with great views. The hosts were very accommodating. Once the fire was going the place heated up quickly and lovely!

AustraliaThe property is beautifully appointed and the location is fantastic. The owners are lovely. Steve always made sure we had enough firewood. A beautiful bottle of wine and plenty of provisions for breakfast. The bed was very comfortable and the room was spacious. Great to see the historic Morialta Barns - circa 1847 be so beautifully restored.

Beautiful, peaceful location. The hosts, Steve and Fiona, have restored The Barns to create space where you don’t want for anything. The Loft has all kitchen facilities so we were able to prepare own meals. Breakfast provisions are provided for one morning but these provisions were generous. Wood fire was beautiful and Steve restocks wood supply every day. Definitely recommend.

AustraliaThe shower door gets slightly stuck, and I would probably suggest including bins in the bedrooms too. But that is probably all; every other amenity that was mentioned was available.
It was a beautiful stay, with a completely homey-cottage feel. The accommodation itself was clean and charming, with a beautiful outdoor area and very attentive, responsive, and knowledgeable hosts. We particularly appreciated help with, and having, the fireplace, and also the very abundant breakfast.

AustraliaBeautifully restored, private and very comfortable accommodation. Lots of character, from the pot belly stove to the 4-poster bed overlooking the surrounding landscape. Well stocked kitchen. Our host made sure we had everything we needed including firewood, suggested routes and places to eat. Well located for day trips to the Barossa, Adelaide Hills and Victor Harbour.

AustraliaThere is nothing negative about the stay!!
Morialta Barnes; Amazing comfort in spectacular surrounds, beautifully restored heritage listed sandstone Barnes. A fantastic location for access to the Morialta Conservation Park (lovely walks), numerous wineries & local eateries, with quick/easy access to Adelaide city. We could not fault our hosts knowledge/suggestions for walks, wineries, eateries and the 'local' (hotel) with extraordinary sunset views. We had the most amazing time and would recommend to family, friends and other travellers..

AustraliaEverything was just wonderful.
Everything was just perfectly beautiful and the peaceful location was glorious. So much history in one place. A beautiful mini-retreat before a big week ahead. Nothing to fault at all. Attention to detail was noticed. From the big to the small. And loved the greeting from the host as well as the historical run down as we entered the Bakery. Much love has been poured in to making it a home away from home. Hosts were wonderful to communicate with also.
