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 KingdomWhile the location was good near to Dingle and Ventry, it was difficult to walk anywhere as it's on a very busy main road with no footpath. A car is a necessity.
Very comfortable with a well stocked fridge on arrival. Maura made us a lovely cake with fresh cream and home made jam.

United StatesIt was right on the roadway and could be loud during the day but quieted down at night. As we were there during a warm time, a fan would have been a nice addition but I know heat is not that common. Everything else was perfect!!!
Pat and Molly were the absolute best part of this stay! They were so kind and accommodating. They had filled the fridge with food and left us homemade cake one evening as a treat. Very close to Dingle and on the Slea Head drive route. So much room and comfy beds. Perfect for a family or two couple groups. I highly recommend staying here!!!

IrelandAmazing exceptional hosts and house. We really appreciated the food Maire left to welcome us and the fruit cake. The stove was great too! This house has a very nice layout with lots of space in the living area and bedrooms. The bedrooms are bright so if you like sleeping in a very dark room in summer just bring a sleep mask

United KingdomOccasionally the traffic could be heard in the evenings and the place will be truly excellent when one or two of the planned additions arrive.
Lovely airy and comfortable cottage as part of the owners property. Great heating system and generally a lovely place to 'come home to' after a day out exploring. The log fire too was a lovely feature.

United StatesOur stay at the Dingle Woodland Cottage was excellent. The cottage was bigger than I anticipated and had all the comforts of home. Beds were super comfortable, plenty of bathrooms and an easy ride into town. If you want an Irish welcome, you will surely get it from Maire and Pat. Thank you again for the fresh flowers , stocking the refrigerator with some essentials, and having the fire ready for us. Until next time, Ann and John.

GermanyMaire and Pat are simply the best hosts you could wish for. Maire welcomed us to the cottage on arrival day and showed us around. The cottage is spacious, very clean, open and with lovely interior. The beds were amazing we slept like babys. The fridge was stocked with some food for the first breakfast, the following days Maire even brought us some cake that she made (which was really really good). The drive to Dingle town was about 10 minutes, there's free parking at the harbour as of 6pm. Maire recommended a restaurant to us which we visited 3 times during our stay. We wouldn't recommend to walk to town as its on the street most of the way. The cottage is directly on the Slea Head Drive start and was a perfectly located for us to start the days and explore the Dingle area. We have absolutely nothing to complain about and would 100% return and recommend it to friends&family. To Maire & Pat - thank you so much for everything, take good care and we hope to be able to stay with you again when we return to Dingle!! All the best to you, Rebecca and Isabell

IrelandMáire and her husband were incredible hosts to us. They welcomed us when we arrived and left the cottage. It was renovated not long ago (3 years, I reckon), and you can definitely tell. Plenty of cosiness between the common area downstairs and the bedrooms upstairs. Windows in the common area downstairs being in a very nice amount of natural life whilst having options for privacy from the main road traffic. And you can't beat the location of this cottage. It's a very short drive into Dingle town, so you have access to the town without being in the chaos during peak season. And you've already a head start on the Dingle peninsula. We will definitely look this place up next time we're in Dingle!

United StatesIt was a bit difficult not having electric receptacles near a mirror, but we found that common throughout Ireland.
The Woodland Cottage was a wonderful experience. Pat and Moira were gracious hosts and made sure we had everything we needed to be comfortable and cozy for three days/nights, even stocking the fridge with light snacks and breakfast items. A fire and Netflix at night was a perfect end to our days.
