Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomBeautiful setting, very spacious and comfortable. Clean and tidy with a lovely little kitchen & roomy bathroom. The main room was just gorgeous. Large open beams, a lovely seating area with TV, and a massive but more importantly very comfortable bed! There was also a single bed which our adult son slept in with no complaints. Jo, the owner, was lovely and welcoming, as were her gorgeous dogs. We only stayed one night and my only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer! Would highly recommend.

United KingdomLoved it all and we have no complaints but a coffee machine would have been a bonus or some ground coffee for the cafetière that was there. But amazing place and no complaints.
Location was absolutely perfect and quiet, sun was out and the views were beautiful. They left bacon and bread for breakfast which was a lovely touch. I stayed with my 8 year old boy ready for Silverstone the next day which is only down the road. We do the trip annually to this car event so hopefully we’ll be back again next year for an amazing stay.

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike about the property. However, as the bedroom/sitting room was on the second floor, it would be unsuitable for some people. There was a one storey cottage next door for those unable to climb stairs.
The location was ideal for our purpose: to visit family in Towcester. It was in a very peaceful setting despite being on a working farm. We enjoyed being surrounded by fields and farm animals. The cottage was cosy, comfortable and well appointed. There was a welcome supply of milk, bread and bacon for breakfast. The host was very friendly and approachable.

United KingdomProperty was quite cold (we discovered windows on vent the next morning which explained why). Prefer natural bedding (cotton sheets /duvet cover) and firmer pillows. Bedding had a strong scent (fabric softener) which is not something we like.
Well equipped property, great amenities in a quiet location. Kitchen had a tea selection, coffee, bread, milk and bacon for breakfast which was unexpected and a very nice touch. Keys readily available despite our late arrival so we were in the property within moments of arriving. Property felt very spacious and shower was a great size.

BelgiumMy girlfriend really, really loved the bed, it was the night sleep we needed before our Silverstone running event. When we arrived there was a small bottle of milk and some bacon in the fridge for us to use and bread, tea and coffee were also available. We really enjoyed the remoteness and quietness of the location, as we both live in a big city (London/Antwerp), this was just the retreat we needed before our event. We cocooned in the living/sleeping room after making diner in the full kitchen and just hang on the sofa watching Formula 1 and some Sky with our diner and a couple of beers.
