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 KingdomThe cottage was so cold when we first arrived. Once it had warmed up it was better. When we were out and then got back about 8 or 9, unfortunately by the time the fire got going it was time for bed.
Very close to my son who lives in Syminton

United KingdomThe crows attacking the windows at 6am :( The entrance roads from either end are a potholed nightmare - but if you had a more suitable vehicle than me, maybe an SUV, you may not notice. A more modern TV would be good too.

United KingdomBeds could have been a bit more comfortable I would warn against bringing a big shop of perishable food in one go as the fridge isn't huge
Fantastic, secluded, quiet location. Utterly beautiful grounds. Loads of colour and ancient trees. Great walking routes, perfect spot to cycle too. Responsive and friendly host Cottage was dated but everything worked Spacious bedrooms Travel cot was provided as requested

United KingdomMy only criticisms would firstly be the mattress in the master bedroom, personally I didn’t find it all that comfortable however it didn’t bother my husband. Also the curtains in the master bedroom weren’t black out ones so as we were there in July it was light very early, not a problem for most people I imagine, I’m just a very light sleeper.
The location was great, easy access for day trips to Edinburgh and Loch Lomond. The cottage was clean with most of what you need for a self catering holiday. Easy to find but felt tucked away from the world so was lovely and peaceful.

United KingdomTight kitchen, difficult for 2 people. Dishwasher didn't have a top basket. Duvet covers seemed old. Didn't appreciate having to strip the beds on departure and put bedding in a bag (we had to leave at 0400). Information was out of date-Bistro prices, still seem to be geared up for Covid. We were not warned of awful road surface when approaching the property. There was a sign down the track for walkers to get to the Bistro/shop but there were no other signs so had to abandon, return to take the car.
The cottage was roomy apart from the kitchen.
