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 KingdomNot really a complaint as such, but it would be useful to have a plug socket near a mirror, bins in the bathrooms, and instructions for cooker hob and central heating. Also, egg cups would've been useful.
The lodge was beautiful and clean, and the views were stunning. Very peaceful and relaxing. Comfortable beds and a pretty well stocked kitchen. Gatehouse of Fleet is not far away, and the lodge is a great base for visiting towns nearby.

United KingdomFor me nothing I didn’t like. Only constructive feedback we would give is to provide some info on how the radiators worked. Also, although not that important to us, some info on local restaurants, beaches, things to do etc would be helpful for some guests.
Excellent lodge-modern, clean with outstanding views. Although it rained some evenings it was great to get the opportunity to sit outside on the decking with a drink and enjoy the view-incredibly peaceful.

United KingdomWe found out about Sea Glass Lodge from a list of recommended accommodation provided by GGs yard. The fact that it is recommended and linked with a wedding venue I was surprised that there were no mirrors at all near plug sockets. Only two mirrors in the whole lodge and they were both in the toilets above the sinks. This made getting ready for a wedding very difficult, especially doing hair. I wouldn’t have even thought to consider packing a mirror to bring with me. Also would have been nice to have extra bin bags available to facilitate the request to recycle, the only bin bag was the one in the bin so we felt like we had rubbish lying around. There’s also a wasp nest in the outbuilding bit at the back of the lodge which caused slight havoc when we had a bbq haha!
Beautiful location and was really peaceful, we were attending a wedding at GGs yard and it was only a 10 minute drive. The town itself is only a few minutes drive and walkable in nice weather, lovely restaurants to eat at. The lodge itself had a lovely layout and was very nicely decorated.

United KingdomNothing, not to like
Keys were in an obvious place, and owner directed us to property. Profile of this property doesn't do it justice in images. Amazing unspoiled views for the cottage out across the hills. Quiet and tranquil and outstanding super fast wifi. Spotlessly clean, and very well equipped. Walks straight from property out onto open fields and only 10 mins walk down hill to Gatehouse of Fleet. 10/10 on all fronts

United KingdomThere's only one thing myself and daughter-in-law didn't like was the fact there's no plug socket near a mirror for doing your hair. We booked this fabulous lodge as we were attending a wedding near by so that was our only problem on that day. Won't be putting us off though.
Stunning scenery, the lodge was immaculate, comfortable, had everything you could possibly need, thenroad upto the lodges isn't great but manageable and so worth the few pot holes. We will definitely be back as we loved it.

United KingdomThe property turns into a furnace as soon as the sun shine, no explanations on how to use the radiators and smart mirrors. No shower hose over bath or in the shower cubicle. No facilities to air dry laundry. No teapot or ramekins. No essentials such as salt, pepper, sugar, oil, vinegar or shower gel. Not enough coats hooks and nowhere to dry coats if returning from heavy rain walks, no hooks or rails to hang towels when coming out of the shower/bath, only a small radiator.
Fantastic location which is quite central to access all towns and walks in Galloway The property is beautifully decorated inside and super clean. The dishwasher was a lovely surprise.
