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.).

United KingdomCan't fault it
The property was excellent. Great location looking over the river and a few hundred yards to the waterfront. Garden was excellent. Plenty of space front and back. The property had everything and more inside the property. Will definitely go back at sometime. Lochgoilhead is a stunning place. The scenery is up there with the best in Scotland.

United KingdomWhoever fills the place with potpourri prior to arrival please STOP the place smelt really very old and musty it really wasn't a nice welcoming smell honestly, the smell remained throughout our visit. Don't be misled thinking your going to see stunning views from this property as your not, the views from the front windows (Lounge and 2 bedrooms) is of the car parking area to the front and other bungalows and from the back windows the view is of the garden and from the fence outside you can see the river below, the whole area is very heavily wooded so the midges are a real problem just getting from the car into the house we were swarmed by them and bitten up to hell, a week after returning home I'm still covered in bites, I did buy the local Scottish made repellent along with the bite cream unfortunately I guess their immune to it!!!! The host / owner did leave a written message telling us NOT to open the windows due to the midges, so we certainly didnt have windows open but still they got in, so we can only imagine how uncomfortable it would be on warm evenings. (Maybe air con would stop them) Personally we would definitely not visit Scotland during the Midge season again.
The place was clean neat and tidy for our arrival, it has everything you need including a hoover, their was 4 of us, all adults (2 couples) I had family visiting from Canada and we were up in Scotland visiting my son & family in Helensburgh for a long weekend attending the Grandchildren's "Grand Day at QVS school" in Dunblane. It certainly wasn't the easiest place to be located but once there you can enjoy the beauty of the area, it really is a place of "Stunning Views" the journey into the area once leaving the main A road is really beautiful with so many beautiful places to visit too. Go prepared with food essential's etc as there's really no where to shop in the immediate vicinity. The Loch Goilhead holiday village is about a 10-15 minute walk from the property where we had dinner on the 1st night and breakfast on the 1st morning, we would definitely recommend a visit there. The kitchen is fully kitted out for all cooking requirements very much home from home they have thought of everything, I don't think you would get 6 around the table though, the beds were really comfortable along with so much drawer and wardrobe space (you dont get this in a hotel room) this was a real bonus, the lounge has plenty of comfortable seating and the sky TV was a bonus too.

United KingdomThe 2 pronged plug in the bathroom for charging electric toothbrush didn't work. That was the only complaint of our stay.
The beds were comfy. There was plenty of room for all in the living room. The TV comes with full sky package including movies which was good option for evening after a long day out exploring. The location was perfect for walking up to the waterfall. The kitchen was well stocked with plates, cutlery, cups, pots, pans etc and there was a lovely box of shortbread on the table on arrival.

United KingdomSatNav directions were unhelpful, sending us up dirt tracks rather than keeping us on the road. It should be emphasised that when arriving in Lochgoilhead, people should stay on the road and ignore SatNav instructions.
Very clean, comfortable and quiet. Wonderful views. Neighbours were nice and friendly. We really appreciated the owner finding us a lady to look after our dog while we went to a wedding. A lovely lady with a lovely family.

United KingdomWe had visions of sitting admiring views of the Loch rather than the road in front of the house. Woodland views out the back of the property were nice though.
The property was lovely, extremely well appointed with all we needed to cook breakfast. Very good use of space, each room had plenty of wardrobes and drawers. Lounge was so comfortable and good internet and television choices. Perfect for preparing to attend wedding at nearly Carrick Castle.

United Kingdomit was invested by miggies and there was no fans or air con so the heat was unbearable as if we opened the the windows the miggies were taking over the full cottage literally everywhere it was one of the worse experiences we have ever had we had to decide on the kids being dangerously hot or bit alive and crying because of them everywhere. the bath had came out with lots of mud from the bubbles but I don’t know what it was or the last time it was cleaned but my daughter had a fever and illness the week following and she was the only one that used the bath and not shower also there is no view you have a car park in front of your windows or bundle of trees at the back nothing to see at all
this property looked great in photos and host was very easy to use and available on the phone
