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.).

ItalyThe only downside was staying just one night, it definitely deserved a longer stay! The visit to the farm is also worth it, the animals are very well kept and the staff is very kind. See you soon.

It was very nice cottage. there was a fun place to see animals up close and a hot tub that was already heated. It has dryer and washer as well. A lot of beds and a lot of space. The owner has creamery store and their homemade ice cream and milk were super yummy and super fresh.

LatviaExcellent place to stay with the family. Three-bedroom house nicely hosted six of us. It is up the hill with only some sheep around you - privacy guaranteed. And upon arrival, the hot tub was ready to be used. Thank you so much, Helga, for the stay and visit to your farm!

United StatesNot a dislike but the cottage is a little rustic. No microwave but it has a stove and oven.
My kids love this place with all the animals like goats, rabbits, cows, pigs and dog.. It’s a spacious private cottage on a working farm where they produce cheese, ice cream and skyr. The cottage is on a hill about 700m away from the creamery and store, which lends it lots of privacy and peace in a beautiful setting but we got the occasional curious sheep roaming around. Helga the host is friendly and thoughtful. The hot tub is nice. And the house has a washer and dryer.

RomaniaThe area is so quiet and peaceful, and the view is amazing. The cottage is very spacious and has a great terrace. We arrived early to catch the creamery open as well (open 13-17), and the ice cream was worth it. Communication was easy with the host, and everything was smooth with the check-in/check-out.

IndiaFantastic location in the hill with no other houses nearby. Perfect place for Northern lights. House is 100 meters beyond what the Google map suggests. Parking at door step. Nice hot tub with hot water. Kitchen is well equipped. Washing machine and Dish washer convenient. House is nice and warm. Can go for a round trip of West from here. Some of the lights were not working and slight air leak from windows may be an issue in winter and so will be the access road. There are 3 bedrooms but only one bathroom.

AustriaWe were looking forward to this place our whole trip. We had quite high expectations for this place. Our expectations got far exceeded. We could have never expected how perfect this is going to be. The cottage is rustically designed which gives off such a nice and cosy vibe. It is so hard to describe this place. To really get what I mean you would have to stay there for a night. The host has a farm which is located around 800m away from the cottage. As we stayed there in winter everything was packed with snow, you really cant imagine how nice it looked almost like in a Disney movie. The host family is so extremely nice and kind hearted, the felling of being welcomed is overwhelming. You are even able to visit the barn with the owners or without them. There you can cuddle with some nearly born calfs and see how the farm life works. Such a great and authentic experience. When visiting the barn you are also able to visit the barn shop of the family which only opens for you. There you can get so nice things. We did some shopping for our dinner there. The quality of the food is out of this world. You can also get some traditionally Icelandic hoodies for such a great deal. They are locally made and stunning. And when visiting the shop even in winter time, you have to try the ice cream. There they sell the best ice cream you can imagine. I have eaten a lot of great ice cream all over the world already but nothing can come close to this one. Every flavor they offer is more than delicious, but the best ice cream in the world is the salted caramel one. When you try it you wont want any other ice-cream in your life. After dinner we checked out the hot tub in front of the cottage. Due to it being winter it was quite cold and completely dark outside, but the water had such a great temperature. When chilling in there you feel like a king especially with the view you get and due to the low light pollution there you can see the best night sky. Its breathtaking.

CanadaThe cottage was very homey and had everything we needed. The hot tub was filled for our arrival with Geothermal water and was a nice way to relax after our flight and long day of travel!! They were also very kind to open their farm storefront for us to let us buy some of their yummy ice cream and goodies.

JapanThe cabin is located on a farm, set apart on a hill. It’s a few hundred meters away from the farm, making it very quiet. Sheep roam around the cabin and are friendly enough to be petted. In front of the entrance, there’s a hot spring tub, and the hostess had already prepared the bath for us (which isn’t always the case). All the necessary daily items were provided, including a dishwasher, hairdryer, washing machine, and a dryer (with quick-dry programs and even one for 6 hours). There’s also a smart TV. The cabin has three bedrooms, each with space for two people, and one room has a double bed. The curtains are a lovely red, and the bedding was clean. All toiletries were also available. There is internet access. The cabin also has guides to Iceland. At the farm, you can see and even pet animals, and there is a shop selling meats, cheeses, ice cream, and other products. I regret not buying meat for dinner there, as both the cheeses and meats were cheaper and of better quality compared to the supermarket, and the ice cream was delicious.
