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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United KingdomI know this can't be helped but the only thing for me was the road outside, there are no pavements so everytime we wanted to go a walk we would have to take the car and park up, not great if you like an alcoholic beverage with dinner as I like going a walk later at night with the dog but couldn't do this as it was a bit precarious to walk on the road.
Everything! Lovely cosy cottage with the log fire. Was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. Hot tub was a great bonus. Host Angie was lovely. Dog loved the garden as it was all enclosed so we didn't have to worry about him escaping.

United KingdomThe quiet location was relaxing and peaceful, the garden is very secure which meant peace of mind that dogs couldn’t escape….they could go in and out as they pleased. Plenty to see within a short distance. Visited Lunan bay beach, definitely worth a walk there. Coastline near the cottage stunning. Cottage well maintained and had all we needed for a long weekend. Plan to book again

United KingdomWhat a fantastic 3 night stay.... excellent location with stunning scenery and walks. The cottage is clean, cosy, and just so peaceful with EVERYTHING you need for your stay. The hot tub is an added bonus, especially after a long day walking along the costal paths and beaches. We also enjoyed watching the bats playing and feeding in the garden it was a spectacular show they put on for us each evening. We will most definitely be back!!!!

Beautiful cottage! For us, the remoteness and peaceful surroundings were everything we needed. Away from all the hustle and bustle of daily life, but close enough to town to pop and buy essentials. Lots of beautiful places to explore only a short drive away, lovely walks along the coastal path.

United KingdomNothing, apart from our phone provider (3) not covering the area, hee haw to do with Cliff Walk cottage but once connected to the Wifi all good.
A fantastic cottage with everything you need. Plenty of space for the four of us and our dog. Both bedrooms were comfortable with all the bedding and towels you'll need. The living room was spacious with a cracking fire so nice and cosy after long dog walks. The Kitchen was well appointed, the wee extras like coffee, tea and biscuits were a nice wee touch. The secure garden was great for the dog and the hot tub an amazing bonus for us all. So peaceful every night! Highly recommended and Angie is a fantastic host

United KingdomThe beds are hard & really uncomfortable for us - this was our second stay though, so we brought our own mattress topper this time (although it says a lot that we liked the cottage so much - and it suits us for visiting family in Arbroath - that we returned regardless of the beds). Also, allow an extra 5 minutes, maybe at 10 degrees higher, for the oven to cook your dinner.
Location great for us (a couple) to stay with our large-ish dog. The property has a large enclosed garden, with lovely coastal walks on the doorstep. It is warm, well equipped and quiet. Also, maintained to high cleanliness standards. It really is lovely and a home-from-home. Wi-fi is good. Netflix & Amazon both available on the tv. This was the second time we have stayed here and we will return again ... both times we have visited we have commented on how nice it would be to downsize & live here. We love it. The owners are really helpful, on our first visit (before the higher fences were installed) they came and helped us build up the height of the stone wall with hardwood logs to stop our dog being able to see (& be tempted to jump) over. Obviously this was taken on board & higher fence panels are now in place.

United KingdomNot really a negative, but there is nothing on your doorstep (shops etc) so you need to drive to everything. We wanted peace and quiet so suited us perfectly, you just need to plan ahead a bit!
Really beautiful cottage in a peaceful location, with the most gorgeous, dog friendly garden. Handy for walking and running,especially along the cliffs. The owners were really helpful and quick to respond to any queries. The cottage was spotlessly clean.
