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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

AustraliaThe style of accommodation was unique to us. It was amazing. The hut was very well appointed, comfortable and spotlessly clean. We loved the accompanying BBQ hut. It was perfect for cooking for ourselves. Maggie the owner was very friendly, accommodating and helpful. The location is peaceful and quiet, and an easy drive to Edinburgh or St Andrew’s

United KingdomThere is absolutely nothing not to like about this place. Home from home.
This place is unique & quite frankly amazing. Maggie is just the nicest, friendliest lady. As we pulled up, she was straight out to welcome us & direct us to our hut. She sat with us & took time to make sure we were settled & happy with everything, answering all our questions & took time to speak to my two girls. Every morning she was down sorting the horses & my girls went to speak with her & she stood & spoke with them. They met Roberta, Maggie's sister aswell who was equally as lovely. Maggie has thought of every detail & I am so glad I chose to book here as was looking all over. Me & my girls will definitely return for another weekend. The views, the shepherds hut, the bbq hut, the well kept grounds & horses are all second to none. Thank you Maggie.

We had a wonderful stay at Capledrae Farmstay Shepherds Huts. The hut was small but beautifully set up – spotlessly clean, cosy, and had everything we needed. The location is ideal for exploring – with easy trips to Edinburgh, St Andrews, Loch Leven, and the lovely coastal towns such as Anstruther and Crail. The host, Maggie, was incredibly helpful and attentive throughout our stay, and the fantastic BBQ hut is a real highlight – perfect for all Scottish weather! A peaceful and well-thought-out base for a couple or small family. Would definitely recommend.
