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...).

From the moment we were greeted at the front door to the moment we left we were made to feel extremely welcome, and encouraged to treat the place as though it were our home. The view from our bedroom was outstanding, and the breakfast the best we has throughout our entire trip around Scotland. I would not hesitate to recommend this lovely place and it's hosts.

United KingdomNot a bad word to say. I wouldn’t change a thing and could t have asked for anything else to make the stay any better!
The owners went over and above to make the stay as accommodating as possible, including putting together a lovely breakfast for us to take with us on a early morning hike! They were wonderful, the room was immaculate and the bed was very comfy. Amazing views and lovely vibes all round! I would definitely stay again and would highly recommend

United States of AmericaThe WiFi/router was VERY poor and is the only reason I marked down this B&B for any reason. The internet was useful for email and for reading websites, but I could not transmit photos or large files. it is imperative in this day and age for B&B's to have routers that permit photos to be transmitted.
The location, hospitality, service, breakfast, comfort of the room were all excellent. They went out of their way to do the little and extra things such as my laundry, which was very welcome. Breakfast was particularly wonderful. Knowe House is also very conveniently located to visit locales in the region such as Stirling, the Wallace Monument, and Lochs Katrine and Lomond.

Deon and Laura were great hosts; Deon showed us around, even offered to help bring our bags up: a first, thank you. The room was a good size, had everything including a fridge! Lovely bathroom. Nice view out the back. Breakfast was terrific, and we had a great view from our table across the town. Lots of information about what to do (good walks from the house) and where to eat. Good location, could walk to eateries. Wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you.

United KingdomThe car park was on a slope which caused my wife a problem in opening her door, until I came round to pull it open myself. However, the on-street parking 10 metres from the driveway meant this was no problem at all.
The twin room was very spacious, with marvellous views over Calendar, through the wide, high windows. Cleanliness of the facilities was first class. Breakfast was a superb choice of various cooked foods and self-service cereal with milk or fruit juice and chopped fruit to accompany it. The tea and coffee in abundance was delicious.

This was one of the best places we stayed in during our Scotland visit. There was a nice table outside to sit outside and see the mountains. I highly recommend staying here. The hosts were so friendly and extremely accommodating. The breakfast was great and accommodated my vegetarian diet. The place was very clean.

Besides the comfortable room and delicious breakfast the hosts Deon and Laura went out of their way to help us when we had a flat tire on our way to their place. Deon spent an incredible amount of time trying to get things worked out for us so we could get on our way and for that we are eternally grateful. He took over all of the logistics and made us feel way less stressed. They are wonderful, can't say enough!
