Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomBeing picky but a washing machine might be a good addition.
We received a very warm welcome from Irene when we arrived. The kitchen and bathroom was well stocked and the charge point was very useful after travelling from Fort William. Well situated for Loch Lomond, the Trossachs, lake Menteith but also Stirling and Edinburgh. Relaxing lounge upstairs where we watched the sheep in a nearby field. We also loved the caramel wafers!

United KingdomI loved everything about the Newton Bothy.
Beautiful settings. Very peaceful, just what we needed. Gorgeous house - very clean. Views were exceptional from the upstairs floor where you can sit in the lovely rocking chairs and watch the day go by. The house was well stocked with cutlery, drinking glasses, mugs, plates etc. Hosts are very welcoming. We went a walk around the area and it was nice to be out in the countryside and look at all the wee lambs in the fields. Callander and Aberfoyle are close-by, by bike or car. Lovely restaurants close-by, we went to Nick Nairn's restaurant in Port of Monteith and it was lovely. The Lion and Unicorn in Thornhill is also a nice place to visit for food or a drink. We will be back as we really did enjoy getting away from the city.

United KingdomWow!! We had an amazing stay. The bothy was so well presented and everything was spotless. The bedroom is so comfortable, the shower is amazing, the kitchen has everything you need (and importantly was well stocked with tea, coffee, and even fresh milk!) and the upstairs area was incredible. My partner and I loved the comfy chairs looking out the big window. The hosts were very welcoming coming to say hello and making space in their shed for our bikes. Good location for outdoors adventures being close to Aberfoyle, Callander & surrounding area. 10/10 stay nothing negative at all to say.

United KingdomLocation was lovely and quiet, but also convenient for Stirling, Aberfoyle and Callander. Irene and Jim were brilliant hosts and had taken time to think about how to make the Bothy "a home from home" and made us feel very welcomed. The electric car charger was also very useful.
