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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

United KingdomNothing it was all amazing
Beautiful location on the end of Loch Ness. Quiet and peaceful. Walking distance from a beach and lighthouse. Absolutely stunning. The house is beautifully decorated and our room looked out into the loch. Small but very comfortable. The food was outstanding and I highly recommend you eat here.

AustraliaThere was absolutely nothing that we could complain about or not like.
This is by far one of the most luxurious and best B&Bs we’ve stayed at ever. Karl and Carla have done a wonderful job of presenting a five star accommodation lodging. The evening meal was magnificent with Karl an ex chef in the kitchen performing magic with local ingredients. Carla is the face and the greeter who is lovely and bubbly and has beautiful taste in the furnishings that they’ve provided in the B&B. The View overlook nest was magical and we are so fortunate to have a beautiful morning basking in the sunshine for breakfast. The breakfast was in our View as good as the dinner with Karl again in the kitchen.

SingaporeEverything was great. The best part was that the owner, Carla communicated with me via WhatsApp and her instructions were clear and spot-on! We found the place very easily. Carla and Karl's hospitality was genuine and outstanding - I rate it as among the top three of all the B&B in my travels around the world thus far. The meals they prepared were exquisite. They were ever ready to accommodate to our needs. Carla took much time to share the attractions in the area, including looking up tide times for us to view the dolphins if we wanted. The room was very clean and very well furnished, and a had a great view of Loch Ness (it was so soothing and peaceful). The accommodation was rich in flora and fauna, and a short flight of steps led to the lake itself. Given the standard of the accommodation, it was great value for money.

AustraliaNothing at all
Where do I start. We did a road trip through Eng and Scotland staying in 12 different places. This was far-and-away the best spot. If I could rate it higher that 10 I would (and I don't give 10 ratings very often). The host was beyond anything I could ever imagine - so friendly, fun and knowledgeable. Oh, and to say he's a top class chef is an understatement. Make sure you have you dinners here too - incredible. Breakfast the best we had too. Room was very spacious and comfortable. Extremely clean and the decor of this place is off the charts. My wife and I just loved everything about this place, the hosts and my oh my, just all round wonderful. Oh and the location - don't stay in Inverness (nothing much there). This place on Lock Ness is ridiculously brilliant - lovely views and such calmness. They have a beautiful garden you can sit out and enjoy the tranquility

GermanyEverything was perfect
There is so much to say: The outstanding view from the room over the North end of Loch Ness, direct beach access from the garden. The cosy, but modern room and you can have a dinner here, that is prepared by Karl in a very professional and tasty manner. We really liked and you can enjoy the dinner in the B&B living room. Awesome. And Carla and Karl are also licensed and you can have a good pint (or two) or a wine with you dinner. We are recommending this B&B and personally, this one is the best I‘ve ever been to.
