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 wifi connection is rather slow, but there are better things to do there than play on your phone! Less confident drivers may find the route to the property a little nerve-wracking, but we thought it was fine - just take your time and ensure you follow the directions from the owners!
Beautiful old farmhouse set in stunning countryside. We were happily greeted and shown to our room which was spacious and furnished in keeping with the property - we enjoyed the slightly wonky floor, reminding us of the age of the property but it is very well maintained. The four poster bed was very comfortable, we also enjoyed sitting out in the garden in the sunshine reading. Breakfast was the best bit - a delicious selection of home-made and local ingredients, eaten at a large table where we could chat with other guests. Excellent!

United KingdomSingle track road (but short distance) to find the property - but that was a blessing because it was a peaceful location but with amenities ten minutes away! Nothing to fault! We will stay again.
Made to feel very welcome at all times. Attentive to detail. Great hosts and super clean accomodation and really great breakfast. Could not fault in any way. Also great pub restaurants nearby and a super deli in Nayland.

The location was tranquil. We loved the wildlife in the garden, squirrels, rabbits and a woodpecker to name a few. The farmhouse was beautiful and our room was stunning and very comfortable. Very thoughtful touches like milk left for us in the morning and when we got back in the evening and lovely homemade cake in the afternoon. I would not hesitate to highly recommend a stay here.

This place was a real find. The previous reviews certainly weren't wrong! It's a beautiful farmhouse in a wonderfully peaceful setting. Spotlessly clean. Very well equipped bedroom/bathroom with luxury bedding, comfortable bed, and a good powerful shower. Very congenial hosts. We were greeted with a warm welcome, tea and cake in the sitting room, and tips on the local area including recommended pubs/restaurants and how to walk up to the village at night. It's a must do if you can; through the fields in the pitch black with nothing but a torch light to guide you certainly puts you at one with nature, we even ran into an owl! Good night's sleep followed by a plentiful breakfast with lots of choice including tea and coffee, cereal, juices, homemade muesli, jams and preserves, toast and several tasty cooked options. We only had an overnighter but will definitely be back!

United KingdomNothing. It was perfect!
It’s is a stunning and welcoming place to stay. The roads surrounding it are very narrow with few pull in points but that’s pretty consistent with the rest of the area. The farmhouse is true to its roots with visible beams and wobbly walls. It’s well cared for, clean and the ground beautifully kept. I’d like to come back to see it all in bloom soon!
