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 KingdomCan’t fault the property but if I had to the bath was out of order and the one shower was very temperamental the other shower was in the annex outside the property
It was in the middle of nowhere away from the hustle and bustle of life very peaceful

United KingdomThe property could use a little maintenance work, the garden around the hot tub needs its light bulbs replacing as it was too dark at night, everything is already there just the lights weren’t working. One side of the toaster kept tripping the electric, as did using the dryer alongside the kettle.
Really wonderful location, house, garden and amenities. Even though we stayed in August, due to the location on a quiet road it didn’t feel like it in terms of business. Really close (10 min drive) to Fell Foot which we launched our paddleboards from (there’s some pull-ins near by we could park as we went early each morning). Some really nice pubs nearby too! Hannah was very helpful. Definitely recommend overall.

United Arab EmiratesAccess road to the cottage was quite narrow. I am not used to driving on such roads, but after couple of times going through it, it became a breeze. Also there is no WiFi coverage in attached separate bedroom, and mobile coverage there was not great. Otherwise in the whole cottage, WiFi and mobile coverage were great.
Cleanliness was amazing. One of the best, much better than 4 or 5 stars hotels that I have been to. Amenities in the cottage were just great with outdoor spa tub and outdoor table and chairs just amazing. Also firewood places in living room, attached room, and backyard are also great. Smart TV giving us access to all streaming services that we are subscribed to. Cottage has all appliances that you may ever need: washing machine, dryer, oven, microwave, water boiler,….. On top of that, cottage is equipped with all essentials that you can think of: utensils, cleaning material, water bottles, wood logs, even spices, you name it. WiFi access and mobile coverage were very good. Owner was very responsive for the few inquiries we had and she was very much keen on getting us comfortable in the place.

AustraliaMost wonderful cottage, loved the welcome package of bubbles, crisps and biscuits. The house was of high quality finishes and there was plenty of logs for the log burner. Very comfortable beds and amazing views. We would love to stay here again. Only negative was that the 4th bedroom was in an out building which we were not aware of.

United KingdomBecause of the extremely cold weather (-5°c) the hot tub took so long to get to an appropriate temperature meaning I spent a long time getting it going and keeping an eye on it, arriving at 3pm our first day meant using the hot tub wasn't possible. This wasn't the host's fault but I wonder if possibly this could have been set away a little before guests arrive just with it being advertised as a selling point of the cottage. Then unfortunately there was a hot water issue in the beautiful room with the en suite which we looked forward to staying in as I was away with my fiancée and her parents. We managed without it but it was a shame. Again though the hosts did tell me this was an issue the day I booked it, and as I did book only 1 day in advance this could have likely all been organised had I booked a bit earlier. We will most definitely be staying again and look forward to staying in that room. The whole place is honestly amazing and my dislikes aren't really dislikes.
The decor was absolutely beautiful, it looked like it had come straight out of a magazine. The hosts were brilliant and messaged us before our stay with a number to call if we needed to. The instructions at the cottage were easy to follow. Everything was so comfortable, the sofas and the beds were super relaxing and the whole place was just a dream of relaxation. No noise or light pollution. Making the hot tub on a night truly magical.

United KingdomThe house is beautiful and has great views. Lovely layout to house, and very clean. Owners left us prosecco, chocolates, eggs and milk. The house was well heated and had everything you could need. It was a family visit, 2 couples and 2 single people and there was plenty of room as the property has 4 rooms. It has central heating plus log burners. It has washing machine, tumble drier and all appliances you could need. Room for us to park our three cars. Lovely house, we enjoyed our tine here.

United KingdomThe only issue we had was finding the property at the outset, which was quickly remedied by checking the emailed info by the host. The email had only got to me an hour prior to reaching though so would have been helpful to have it beforehand.
Beautiful property with lots of space. Great location, close to several pubs.
