How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The ONLY thing i would add would be wifi access, otherwise everything met our expectations. It’s a quiet spot, but if you want to come to work, bring a dongle. Otherwise bring books :)
All breakfast ingredients were supplied, and were generous and fresh, and a good variety of options. The home-made bread was EXTRAORDINARY. We received the warmest welcome, and the change of booking dates was no problem at all. The visit was like staying at your mum’s place (without mum, LOL), and the cabin was cosy, comfortable and very well equipped. Very central to wineries and other tourist locations, too. This is a great bolt-hole if you just need to relax, and we’ll be back for sure!

The fresh bread and generosity with the amounts of eggs, milk and butter left for consumption was much appreciated. The home made jam was incredible and the bread turned both of us into unstoppable grazers - delicious!! We plan to stay here in future if we head your way again. Getting in before we arrived and starting the heater was also very appreciated and a homely touch. Thanks so much!

Roseann from the time I booked was easy to contact and we kept one another informed of our arrival. She was there to welcome us when we arrived with our grandchildren and explained the villa set up and said if need anything else to just ask. Our grandson loved all the toys to play with. There was freshly baked bread , butter . homemade jam and milk /oj in the frig :) I was lucky and got a tour of property and some homegrown mandarins they were delicious There was also the supplies for a cooked breakfast the next morning which was a real bonus for our family . Great location and we have already talked about coming back as a family and seeing more of the area

We only had one night, so next time, we will stay longer and enjoy the comfortable cottage and visit the surrounding towns and attractions. Everything was wonderful.
It was close to the wedding venue we were attending. We stayed in the Kookaburra cottage. It was clean and spacious with a perfect, quiet outlook. Had everything we needed and more. A special touch was a freshly baked loaf of bread, homemade jams and honey, bacon & eggs & orange juice. Happy, friendly, and very helpful owner. Thanks for making us feel welcome, Roseann. I highly recommend staying at Dixiglen Farm. We will be back!

The host was very friendly and provided us with home-made baked bread and jam. The bacon and eggs were an extra addition. The villa was perfect for a large family get together., with each bedroom having its own bathroom. The shower was amazing. Our grandson enjoyed the trainset. Thankyou for going out of your way to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

Unfortunately, I found the bed to be uncomfortable and after the second night, I woke up a little sore. While the cottage does provide a peaceful getaway, I do believe that for longer stays an option for wifi might be helpful.
The quaint cottage and the surrounding scenery were lovely, I enjoyed walking around the grounds - the fresh bread and locally made jam were amazing, and was such a warm welcome. I enjoyed the peacefulness of it all.

That our stay was short.
As soon as we arrived we were greeted by Roseanne, who was absolutely friendly. We stepped into the villa and it gave a home away from home feel. The beautiful home baked bread was delicious, as well as the jam 😊 we were also provided with eggs, bacon and juice. My family ate 1 loaf within the hour. The rooms were clean,we enjoyed the space from the rooms, kitchen and lounge. Having the convenience of 4 showers and toilets was great for a family of 7, but it houses up to 12 adults. Location was great! Wish we got to stay longer to experience the full charm of the villa.
