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.).

The breakfast was perfectly cooked, delicious! The ensuite rooms were really comfortable and clean. The hosts were lovely and couldn't have been more helpful. You have access to a beautiful sitting room to relax and read.

Amanda and David were the consummate hosts. They helped me arrange my booking on the ferry to the Isle of Wight. And they even gave me a ride to a wonderful restaurant about 20 mins away and then picked me up.

United KingdomThere was nothing to report as a negative at all.
Had a 4 night stay here and really couldn't fault it. David, the host, was a lovely guy, very welcoming and brilliant as a host as well, nothing was too much trouble for him at all. Was happy to serve breakfast (a great full English!) at any time including early starts when we wanted, gave us some good advice on local routes to avoid traffic and was always friendly, happy and was nice to talk to at the end of our day. The accommodation itself was excellent - the room was really nice and everything was spot on. A lovely bathroom with a great power shower with instant hot water and all very clean. Also had a lovely garden that you were welcome to sit in of an evening if you so wished, a nice spot to sit and chill after a long day. Located in an absolutely beautiful part of the country, in a nice quiet lane and with a great pub that's well worth a visit only a very short walk away. Will not hesitate to visit again at some point in the future.

United KingdomThinner duvets would have given more comfort, particularly as we arrived during a heat wave, The sign at the entrance was just visible, with plants threatening to obscure it. In evening light we missed it as we drove slowly down the lane and found it easier as we drove back up.
It was a lovely home in well kept gardens; it was well kept and clean. The owners were friendly, welcoming and very helpful and gave us tea on arrival. Rooms were of a good size and well equipped. Breakfast was excellent although we probably ate too much.

CanadaThe only grumbles we have here involved the ensuite bathroom. The shower had a fire hose pressure which sprayed everywhere and outside of the tub/shower area. And the lighting over the sink and around the mirror was too dim to be useful.
From the moment we arrived to the time we left Amanda & Dave were wonderful hosts. They were welcoming, friendly, and very helpful in deciding what to see and do in the surrounding areas. Our room was cosy and comfortably sized, very clean and nicely decorated. We had a large spacious ensuite with both a tub and a shower, and a full array of toiletries. Breakfast was served in their bright and spacious home dining room. It was wholesome and filling and included both cold and cooked options. An added bonus for us was the ease of parking at the front of the house. We would highly recommend staying at this lovely B&B.
