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.).

Very welcoming hosts. A large room with good facilities - a lovely touch with a small decanter of sherry. A very comfortable bed - the best we have stayed in for a long while (apart from our own bed!). An outstanding breakfast - a lovely selection including real freshly prepared fresh fruit, good coffee and an excellent full English breakfast. We will return!

United KingdomOn first arrival, the closed gate can be confusing. When I arrived there was an event at the neighbouring hotel and it appeared that all the parking spaces were gone - there is ample parking through the gate, in front of Magpies, but you don'tknow if you don't know. I stayed in Hambleden, which is a lovely room. Technically, it is on the ground floor, as is access to the main house where breakfast is served, but to reach it, you have to go up some steps, not a problem for me but might be for someone with mobility issues
Lovely spacious room with a comfortable bed, fairly powerful shower, pleasant seating area, reliable Wi-Fi and access to a beautiful garden and a swimming pool. The room had its own outside access, so I didn't worry about disturbing people when getting back late. It's a very peaceful, rural location, being a converted barn around which the house has been built, looking out over fields. There are pleasant extra touches such as complimentary sherry and sweets in the rooms and a visitors' "lounge" with comfortable chairs and board games. Breakfast was excellent - I particularly enjoyed the homegrown figs with yoghurt. Jane and Kevin were attentive hosts, as indeed was Fidget, their springer spaniel.

United Kingdomthere was not anything not to like.
Its just an exquisite place. The room was cosy and comfy. The linen was exceptionally clean and fresh. I slept so well. The breakfast cooked to order in a very homely way. Jane dashed out to her garden to cut fresh sprigs of chives for my omelette. its just that small attention to detail I loved. Jane is a welcoming and kind host. I would highly recommend it.

United KingdomThe only slight negative was the electric shower which was not very powerful and it was also difficult to regulate the temperature.
We were given a warm welcome by our host. Very nice spacious room with a lovely outlook over the garden. Our bed was very comfortable and the location peaceful. Excellent breakfast, fruit, cereal and yogurt followed by piping hot and delicious cooked breakfast. I swam twice in the heated pool which was an added bonus! We appreciated the sherry and bowl of sweets and would definitely book The Magpies again. Thank you 😊
