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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 could have been improved was the pathways - they were horrifically muddy (we're used to a bit of mud, so no real problem for us), but I can only imagine how impassable they would become when the site is fully booked over summer & autumn. There definitely needs to be some gravel or wood chip put down. Oh, and maybe a little shed near the hot tub to keep clothes and towels in, etc.
The tent was great! Everything that we needed was provided. The staff were really friendly & helpful, and even though we were the only people staying there we were looked after yet given our privacy. Facilities were spotless.

United KingdomA great location with great hosts. There has been a lot of love put into this location and we used the hot tubs for 2 days and that was very enjoyable. Wes and Zara made us feel very welcome and couldn’t have done any more for us. The stars on a clear night were something else! And lots of things within close distance. Highly recommend! We managed to go on the coldest weekend of the year so far and we weren’t prepared enough so definitely take lots of warm clothes and layers if going off season!

Everything! This was our 3rd stay & Zara & Wesley went above & beyond in looking after us as always, they are a charming & friendly couple.The woodland is beautiful, full of birds singing, the hot tub was magical, like a fairyland with the little lights around it! We had a hot tub in a thunderstorm on the 2nd night & it was exciting 😄 It was so romantic to come out of the hot tub & cook a vegan feast on the open fire after.Slept like a log both nights thankyou.

Relaxed, well organised. All the nuts and bolts of a camping stay were present and working.

United KingdomNothing to dislike about this site , absolutely nothing I'm
Zara and Wes have made this site into a place of complete r&r They could not have done anymore for us during our stay , be partially disabled I average 2 hrs sleep a night, there it was 8 hrs. The set up is well planned and easily navigated. The hot tub was amazing and being able to sit under the stars in it made it even more relaxing, I would recommend this site to anybody with mental or stress issues to try this site , it certainly did me a power of good. We will certainly be using it again and certainly keeping in touch with Zar and Wes , both fantastic people and a wonderful couple . Gary

United KingdomWe would of liked something to secure the entrance to the tent, as people who don't camp at all and the first time glamping we felt a tie on the zippers would have benefited us. We didn't ask so they might supply one.
The staff were lovely, especially the lady, very chatty, friendly and helpful. Showed us around and told us where the important things were straight away. The hot tub is amazing. When we first arrived, we got in it cold as it was so hot outside, but once warmed by the log fire, it was amazing. The pictures you can get of the smoke with the light shining through, brilliant.
