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.).

AustraliaMinimal night lights outside cottages and roads. Although torch was provided but an evening walk would be nice :)
Big patch of green grass with few farm animals to see. The bird and wind sounds were really soothing to hear especially at night when going to sleep. Breakfast hamper was generously packed with quality items.

Australia2nd bedroom isn't a bedroom, it's in the lounge! So privacy is an issue, or if someone gets up early. Tight parking for large vehicles but manageable.

AustraliaJust a couple of cleanliness things, my two year old found old chips under the couch (like hot chips) which was a bit gross. Just a more thorough clean needed to pick up on those things but otherwise well kept
Location and comfort was ideal. Great for my two year old to explore the property!

United KingdomMusty smell. Bathroom and kitchen were dated and tired despite mini face-lift- they were functional but let the cottage down a little. TV too small and in an odd corner so we never bothered . Bed in main area an outdated idea...luckily only 2 of us staying so not a problem. No dishwasher meant plates etc not cleaned well by previous occupant.Maintenance inside for fans,blinds and paintwork with screen cleaning/repairs needed.
Comfortable bed and living area. Great views. Quiet and private. Relaxing. The owners have clearly put effort into updating the cabins and they have potential for further improvement to make them deluxe.

AustraliaThe only con, which was uncontrollable from the staff, was that we had to leave a day early due to the flooding and storms happening during summer. Just something to be aware of during storm season was that we did struggle to get back down the mountain once it had started to flood. To the staffs benefit they worked hard to keep the generators always on so we always had power. No other issues we enjoyed our stay greatly, even if it was cut slightly short with a bit of weather drama we would highly recommend this place.
We were in the Cassowary cottage, right at the end with our own little archway entry, super private and such a well taken care of cottage. The location of this place is breathtaking, the anniversary/breakfast hamper was so lovely; they included fresh eggs from the chickens, bacon, bread and juice. The birds would stop by in the morning when you'd leave some feed out, we sat on the balcony with our morning coffee and watched the birds and the alpacas, it was akin to a Disney movie. We brought our dog and we loved taking her for walks around the property to see the alpacas and the horses, I think that was my favourite part, the black horse is very sweet and friendly. The spa bath was lovely and it still worked considering the power outage from the storms. The staff were generally quick to get back to any concerns or questions we had. Honestly the best place I've ever stayed and would be lucky to have the opportunity to go again (just not maybe during storm season!)

AustraliaAttention to cleaning detail inside was not to standard. Dirt and dust behind furniture and bed, lamp shades, switches, art on wall over bed covered in dust. Ants in spa bath may be coming in through the filters. Kitchen a little run down. Bathroom could use a makeover. If bath salts selection is offered in the toiletries then please fill them up for each new guest (one of the 3 was just about empty). Just the special things people are expecting to find were disappointing, especially as this cottage was classed as the superior more expensive one.
Beautiful location. Tranquil and peaceful. The cottage catered nicely for a relaxing break close to town amenities.
