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.).

IrelandI appreciate we were in a forest & as one of our party needed internet access it was quiet stressful for them , we had to travel some distance regularly to facilitate their needs.
The directions & access to the lodge were very clear , the property was lovely and cosy & we enjoyed our time there,

IrelandWould have liked to sit outside longer in the evenings, but it was so shaded it made it too cold.
Perfect for a screen free family getaway. Our boys (5) and (3) had the best time exploring the nature outside collecting pine cones. Cabin was really comfortable and clean.We Bbq'd both nights as the weather was so nice. Fully stocked kitchen equipment, so we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend it. We can't wait to come back!

IrelandIt was cold when we arrived and the heating took a few hours to warm the place. But it was February when we visited so it can be expected. Tips. The water isn't drinkable, so do bring your own. The heaters use a lot of electricity, so keep an eye on the electricity meter. The host did provide a top-up code, which was much appreciated, and we had no problems. Limited Internet may bother other visitors, but we went there to get away, so it wasn't an issue.
Absolutely lovely cabin and maintained to a really high standard. The host was really helpful with any questions or queries. Really good spot if you want to get away. Close to Ballyconnell town, which has plenty of amenities, ranging from supermarkets, pubs, and food options. Also a taxi service if required.

The layout of the cabin, the tv nook upstairs and balcony. Kitchen was well stocked, novelty factor of staying in a forest. Also had lovely lunch in local coffee shop following day

IrelandIt was stunning. All the little finishing touches were beautiful. Myself my husband and 3 daughters (aged 10,7 and 6 months) had the most relaxing time here. Sitting on the porch was my highlight. I loved that there was no WiFi so kids played outside or played board games. Will be booking again.

IrelandWe were slightly worried as we were told the night before we went that we would have to top up the electricity meter in the cabin. We had presumed electricity was included...We were bringing two small children so we were worried as we didn't know when the electricity would run out. We bought some credit just in case. The owner had topped it up before we arrived and it lasted until the early morning after the second night and we had to top it up then. Just something i think is worth knowing before you go.
Beautiful cabin in a beautiful location! Very comfortable and very clean. Was very well equipped. The cabin was really spacious and it was decorated so nice. We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend it anyone.
