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...).

United KingdomNot much! The cottage is great. The drive entrance is very narrow BUT we were warned about it and it was ok. If you have a larger car I would check widths first! We made it with the mirrors folded in. However, once in the parking is great and it felt very secure.
Great host! Leaving a welcome note and fresh milk etc was a great touch. Cup of tea after a long journey is always welcome!

United KingdomThe upstairs was incredibly hot - but I imagine anywhere would be during this current heatwave. Some fans in the bedrooms might have helped?
What a lovely stay! A beautiful little cottage right in the heart of Ledbury. It was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and deceptively spacious.

United KingdomIt didn't have an outside space to enjoy the sun, but that said we wasn't there for relaxing we stayed for a wedding and then touring/walking around the area which was beautiful.
The location was great, in the middle of town so easy access, but it was in a quiet location down an alleyway so out the way of the hustle and bustle if you craved the peace. The town was fantastic, lots of shops and places to eat.

Everything was exactly to our taste and perfect for our overnight stay in Ledbury. As previous residents of the area, two of us are very familiar with the town and the 3 of us would highly recommend a visit to Ledbury and a stay in Gentleman's Cottage. Thank you Penny for all the important little touches that mean so much!

United KingdomA scary drive through the mews arch in our VW Van! Plenty of space to park once through though. We just had to pull in the wing mirrors, and we fitted! Mattresses not the most comfortable, but the place is lovely. Maybe extra mattress toppers could make the place truly perfect.
Well equipped, tastefully decorated. Milk provided, (what a godsend), as shops and restaurants shut very early here. The complimentary drinks were a lovely touch too. Someone who really cares about the details, runs this property.

The location of The Gentleman’s Cottage is fantastic, down a little side right and right in the middle of Ledbury, so within 5 minutes you can be shopping, drinking coffee or eating in one of many eateries. The cottage itself is exceptionally clean, comfortable, well equipped and warm, a home from home. The owner, Penelope, is very responsive and helpful. All in all a treasure of a place if you're in Ledbury.

United KingdomVery little storage in the main bedrooms - this meant that for a week you lived partly out of your suitcase. no bedside table in the second bedroom, or bedside light.
The hostess paid attention to every detail and was most considerate, leaving starter food and drink and equipping the cottage so you didn't need to bring anything. Her instructions were also very clear and comprehensive. The cottage itself is cosy and easy to feel at home in.
