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.).

It had a lovely homely feel to it and fabulous views. Sophie and Matt couldn’t have been more welcoming. Breakfast was delicious with freshly homemade bread and yoghurt. The beds were super comfy and there were loads of lovely walks nearby.

NetherlandsFrom the moment we arrived at Ceo Mara Croft and saw that spectacular view across Airds Bay, we did not want to leave. The surroundings are peaceful and feel completely isolated. Apart from our goat companions and the occasional hen! Inside the cabin was warm and cosy. It has been decorated beautifully and felt like a home away from home. The kitchen was well equipped and the lounge area was super comfortable. There were also handy facilities for drying wet gear/shoes in the little outhouse next to the cabin. We especially loved the views from the bed at night and in the morning. The bed itself was super comfortable and had luxurious bedding. Despite this, I would have preferred the option for some blackout curtains in the bedroom as the sun comes in first thing (sometimes you want to sleep in!) and the blinds did not really do anything to block the light. Matt was a super host, attentive when it was needed, but gave us plenty of space to be alone and enjoy the quiet. As we were there on a Monday and Tuesday, we were not able to try out any restaurants in Taynuilt itself, but we did have a very good dinner at the Ben Cruachan Inn and and an excellent breakfast at Poppies. Taynuilt is a great spot for exploring surrounding towns and scenic spots. We loved our two days at Ceo Mara and were very sad to say goodbye to the cabin and the view!

United StatesThe fresh baked bread in the morning was marvelous and there were abundant options for coffee, tea, cereals, and dried fruit. The host was warm and gave us trip-making recommendations. We really enjoyed even just sitting and taking in the views and bird songs from the house. Everything was clean, the shower was great, and thoughtful touches delighted at every turn.

United KingdomHard to think of anything, a coat stand would be useful.
An exceptional cabin in a stunning location. Beautifully designed and built quality cabin with every comfort and detail thought about, a pleasure to stay in. Outdoor furniture on the private decking gave us lunch in the sun with that gorgeous view. Thoughtful written info very helpful for local attractions and eateries etc. Loved it all, including watching the antics of the goats!

United KingdomThe chalet/cabin was in an excellent location with a cracking view over Loch Etive and the surrounding hills. It was very peaceful and quiet, the only background noise was bird song mixed with Maggie and Lisa's bells and occasional baa-ing. Lisa and Maggie are resident goats I should mention. The Chalet had everything we needed and was warm and comfortable throughout our stay with an added bonus of a drying room for wet clothes or wetsuits.

The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom and shower were also excellent and stocked with everything a regular traveller would need. The location is quiet and peaceful, and close to the main road. The information about local attractions as well as suggested daily itineraries were very useful and saved me a lot of time.
