Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

United KingdomThere is no oven, and the multi-oven/fryer wasn't big enough for a family of 6.
Nice homely caravan well presented, clean, plenty of things for the kids to do from books, dvds, and puzzles.

United KingdomWe did come from quite far away (7,5 hrs drive), so it was not easy to calculate the journey time. We did arrive at 13:00, and had an impression thar caravan was ready, but lady called and politely asked to leave and wait until 4pm - their usual check in time.Ofcourse, it’s our mistake so we did apologise and waited outside. Cleaner left at around 15:30, which was fine, it’s just kids ( aged 4,11 and 12) were left without an access to the toilet for quite few hours. Furniture and appliances felt a bit out-dated,and some of the mattresses needed a proper clean. Oven didn’t work properly as well. Moreover, neighbours said that we did overpaid for our stay, as other people rent their caravans for £500-£550 a week, while ours cost about £800. Not sure if it’s correct, but I guess, next time it’s worth doing some extra research. Also, One of the Outdoor benches was wobbly and not safe to sit on. BBQ small and very rusty.
Lovely location, safe and quiet place for the kids to play around freely. Site has a free indoor swimming pool, pub/restaurant and you can buy a daily ticket/pass for fishing. Good size shower and had hoover, iron.

United KingdomI personally believe that spring or summer are the perfect times to visit places like this. For people, looking for a warm place, even with the heating on, it was not warm enough. The beds in the single rooms were smaller than expected (you can't tell by looking at the pictures). More photos of the lakes and the surrounding area would be great! And just a thought, a dish drainer rack would be great (a housewife appreciates the comfort of dishes drying quickly).
This was the first time my family visited Scotland and stayed in a static caravan! It was a great experience! We enjoyed every minute of it! The property is pet-friendly, only a few places offer this option. Pet owners are really grateful to know that they can enjoy their special occasions with their pets, the whole family together! The view and the scenery are amazing! The tranquillity of the area is WOW! The owner answered all our questions straight away which made us feel special. We were pleasantly surprised by the living room and the bathroom! The decorations and the setting of the living room made us feel at home! To me, personally, it was the best getaway ever!

Three Lochs park is in a lovely country location around 9 miles from Newton Stewart. There are some good dog walks around the park. The caravan is South facing so gets the sun all day. It was peaceful and in a good location on the park. Everyone we met was friendly and chatty.

United KingdomWe spent a wonderful week here and everything was great. The caravan was spotless and homely, the beds were very comfortable and I especially loved the air fryer/oven for cooking in. We loved our holiday here and it very much felt like a home from home. Our host was very helpful and was always quick to respond to any queries or questions we had. Would definitely stay here again.

United KingdomNothing. Absolutely fantastic.
Absolutely beautiful property. Photos didn’t do it justice. So much bigger than it looks in photos. Plenty space on the sofa. Plenty space at the table. 3 beautiful rooms. 2 bathrooms. Immaculate on arrival. Fresh flowers on the table were a beautiful touch. Plenty utensils , bedding , blankets. Even some food in the cupboards to get started for people who might not have brought anything. Newton Stewart only 20 mins away and has a sainsburys Aldi and coop.

United KingdomReally unsure what to say here as there wasn't anything about the caravan we didn't like. Although the actual site we couldn't locate information on if any facilities were open or what times.
Clean and tidy. Lovely quiet area. House rules were clean and left out in an obvious location to read upon arrival. Host was very quick to reply and help with questions.
