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 KingdomThe only thing that isn't great is the size of the TV screen in the lounge area. Given the distance of the seating area from the TV screen location the screen size needs to be markedly bigger for comfortable viewing. We also had to buy some replacement batteries for the control to the DVD Player.
The Cottage is located very close to Wells Town centre with good parking facilities. The rooms are very well equipped with comfortable furniture. The Beds are especially comfortable with warm duvets. The owner was very swift and helpful in responding to a call reporting a minor problem with the heating system.

United KingdomI was given the wrong key code by booking.com so couldn’t access the cottage for 50 minutes. This was very stressful as I had two young children in tow after a long drive and had to wait 45 minutes for someone at booking.com to answer the phone. I wasn’t originally given the actual owners phone number either which I should have and would have helped. Also, dog owners are told to keep their dogs off the furniture but they clearly have allowed them as there was a very strong smell of dog on sofa.
Beautiful cottage, everything you could need. Superb location and having a parking space was a god send.

United KingdomThe only thing that was missing from our point of view was a slow cooker. which had we realised we would have brought one from home.
The cottage was great, very clean, car parking opposite the cottage, and it was my space for the week. 5 minutes walk to the front, plenty of places to eat, or for coffee, close to bus stops . a number of walks in the area. and the weather was fantastic.

United KingdomNothing really. If I was being fussy I would just wanted to finish the small elements in the kitchen but for what we wanted the location and the cottage itself was superb.
Was better than we thought as the photos were not up todate. Slept so well and we were so relaxed. Great place. Have already booked for later in the year.

United KingdomThe only small niggle was that the downstairs smelt of dogs. It's a hard floor throughout downstairs so I think it must have been the rug. No smell upstairs, in fact, the upstairs was immaculate.
The location is great. The cottage is lovely and roomy. Be mindful of low, sloping ceilings upstairs if you're tall! Well equipped and cosy. Downstairs loo very useful for my elderly mum. Short walk to the town centre and harbour. Has parking for one vehicle which is really important in Wells as parking provision is sparse.

United KingdomSloping ceilings not pointed out in advert or sufficiently evident from photos. TV very small by modern standards, exacerbated by distance from sofa. Door sticking and difficult to open/close. Need net curtains in living room, occupant of adjoining cottage had habit of looking in window as he passed.
