Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

This stay was the soul recharge needed after a busy year. The peace and tranquility surrounding us in all directions, the chance to let our hair down and truly unplug from the hustle of city life was priceless. We stayed in the Library cottage, which was tastefully decorated and had all the modern comforts. No TV and the kids didn't even notice. Chantelle the farm manager was exceptional and ensured we had fresh meat to cook on our arrival on Christmas day. The farm gifts were delicious and included whole fresh milk, delicious olives and olive oil made on the farm. The weather was a bit chilly and we had the opportunity to light up the fire place which just added to the cosy ambience of the stay. Highly recommend a stay at Vrish Gewagt if you're looking for a unique way to re-energize your spirit and a truly memorable stay.

South AfricaThe fact we had to leave.
Wow, there are not words to describe this majestic farm. Home away from home and even more. Spoils of beautiful, stylish accommodation, indoor fireplace with ample firewood. Complementary olives, olive oil and wine as well…Load shedding…what was that? You didn’t even notice. Most quiet peaceful place with views that one can only dream of combined with farm life and little critters. If you need to unwind, this is most definitely the place to be. Chantelle the farm manages, she went above and beyond her call of duties. So friendly and accommodating. Homer our fur baby loved every moment of being free and meeting a buddy there on the farm (The farm dog). He even met cows and sheep for the first time. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. My fiancé is into Astrophotography and I’m telling you, the stars are so bright and untouched by city light pollution. I could go on and on about how amazing this place was. It was so sad to leave. Let me tell you that the 4-hour tip from Cape Town is well worth it,come rain or sunshine. You will most definitely see us again. I can wait to show your beautiful place off to friends. Thank you so much for such a beautiful unforgettable stay.

South AfricaWe stayed in Cooks Cottage. The decor, lighting, bathrooms, bedrooms, crockery, extremely well-appointed kitchen, delightful outside patio, and spaciousness of the 2 bedroom unit were all lovely and well thought through. The farm's olive groves and surrounding mountains are enchanting. The team on-site went out of their way to make us feel welcome, accommodate our requests, and inform us about the various fully organic produce and exquisite olive oil they sell....which we subsequently ordered and purchased 😀 Thank you for a memorable stay. We shall definitely be returning and will continue ordering from you!!

The cottage is situated on a beautiful estate and is lovely! All the details are so well done! We enjoyed the outside shower very much. And the Nespresso coffee machine so we could enjoy our cup in the morning with an amazing view. There are a couple of swimming/cool pools in different spots at the estate and there is a round one on top of a hill we enjoyed very much! Chantal welcomed us and she gave us all the information. The cottage is half of 2 cottages, so if you're traveling with other people that's perfect. This place is everything you could wish for! Thanks!

BelgiumThe load shedding. A big problem in South-Africa. But the owners are planning to install an inverter.
The house was fantastic. Beautifully decorated. Foreseen of all comfort and with a swimming pool. Absolute silence, the ideal house and location to relax in the magical Karoo. Chantelle the manager was really great and showed us around on the farm. Lovely person.
