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.).

AustraliaMaintenance of the cottages eg. Decking and outdoor furniture broken.
Comfortable and clean bush style cottages. Although quite old, we felt very comfortable there. It is in an excellent location in central Hunter Valley surrounded by wineries and close to the village. We were blessed to have many kangaroos living on the property so we were able to get quite close while they were grazing daily. This property also has a small pool which was a bonus as we were visiting in summer!

AustraliaCurtains and some of the facilities very dated. Carpet stained, Although on site saying had WiFi, there wasn't any in cabin. We were comfortable but for the money paid would have expected a little more. Property needs some maintenance.
The location and privacy was fabulous. Seeing the kangaroos was amazing.

AustraliaNothing really, but keep and eye on the fridge, as we managed to freeze all our stuff in the main compartment. The setting was too high, so we adjusted this. Wasn't a major problem, as it was only left over food from the day before. No internet, but used our own personal hotspot.
On arrival, saw the welcome note and birthday wishes for my husband, together with a bottle of wine. Very nice touch. When I put our food into the fridge also found a basic breakfast pack, with loaf of bread, milk, juices and several spreads. That was not expected either. Thank you. The cottage was very nice, roomy, A/con already on as it was a VERY hot day, and an overhead fan in the bedroom. When I read the blurb re the accommodation, it said bar fridge. I rang to check what it was and was told it was a little larger than a bar fridge. A lovely surprise it was a fridge with separate freezer. This needs to be amended in the booking.com notes. We need a freezer or freezer box inside a small fridge. It was a very quiet location, as surrounded by open land, not a lot of trees nearby, and kangaroos came to visit each day. There are other cottages, but all well spread out. Bathroom with separate toilet very spacious. There is a laundry sink, if needing to wash any clothes, and a rack to stand outside tor dry the clothes. So no washer or dryer. We didn't need this, and what we had was enough if we needed to rinse anything out. The balcony/deck is on 3 sides of the building, but because of the extreme weather, sadly too hot to sit outside. Would have loved to sit and watch the roos as they grazed. One mum had a large youngster, that kept climbing in and out of her pouch.

Australiahard to say , nick picking , the sofa lounge was a little to soft ,the veranda from the bedroom was noise due to the sheeting not being secured to the cottage, this is nothing to complain about , if any thing the cottage has charm
great place to visit . cabins were located close to each other but with the scene of privacy. would recommend , morning and night roos everywhere , recused a turtle from the pool , everything was well presented , due to covid we couldn''t access the owners , though it was extremely well organised and we seemed invited , the placement of the little things like bread ,condiments and milk was extremely welcoming. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED , on another though our first visit to the hunter was our anniversary a few years ago came back this year and we had the same cabin ,bit of a bonus , have no idea if it was the owners discretion or just luck ,was a great surprise , THANKS

AustraliaThe cottages feel tired and could do with some updating. The outside furniture was rusty and our sliding door didn't work at first. It was expensive for how tired they look.
Location was excellent and it was lovely and quiet. I also loved the whole loaf of bread left for us for breakfast. It was really generous. When the sliding door broke, someone came straight away to fix it.
