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 KingdomVery limited storage space, though as accommodation is quite small this is understandable. There was space for suitcases under the bed so clothes could be kept in the case. However, this was not suitable for the type of bag we used. Limited space to put stuff in the kitchen which was fine for a weekend but we would have struggled to find room for everything had we stayed a week. A bread knife would have been handy and larger cups or mugs.
Location was good for walks. Being environmentally minded accommodation was perfect for us being on an organic farm, with a compost toilet too. Liked the clever use of old tyres recycled into containers for plants. Accommodation clean and had most things we needed.

United KingdomNot much of a negative, but would have liked a bug net in the cabin or a form bug prevention to have the ability to leave the cabin doors open. We slept with the doors open due to the heatwave
Cabin was tidy, comfortable bed, great views, polite owners, well looked after farm animals, free wifi

United KingdomLocation perfect for exploring the Kerry Ridgeway, Offa's Dyke and Shropshire Way which are all nearby. Cosy little hut with separate kitchen area. Cute farm animals as neighbours including two llamas. My second visit here and would go again. Solo traveller felt very safe. Peace and quiet, away from all the stress.

United KingdomNothing to not like, pictures don't do the place justice! Only recommendation would be for some guidance / step by step instructions in the manual on starting and keeping the log fire going 🙈 (from 2 young city girls!!)
This place was picture perfect, it was exactly what 2 city girls needed for a break away! Like a little glamping trip, being on the farm and having the animals close by was wonderful. The views were incredible and hospitality was exceptional. We will definitely be back and couldn't recommend highly enough

United KingdomThe only thing to be wary of is the route you take as it is in a very, very remote location! Our sat nav took us through single track roads for about 45 minutes. This can be a plus for some people who really want to get away from it all, but if you are concerned about navigating narrow, hilly country roads and potentially scratching your car etc. it's just something to be aware of. Also in colder months (we stayed in November) worth being aware that the shower is in a separate block to the shepherd's hut itself, so may get a bit chilly getting changed etc. with not much room to put your clean clothes but I'm sure that in warmer weather conditions this is not an issue at all.
The hosts were very friendly and helpful, explained everything very efficiently and brought us extra matches when we needed them. Very tranquil location, zero light pollution so stunning views of the night sky on a clear night. Cosy little shepherd's hut with views of the rolling countryside. Eco-friendly composting toilet which was easy to use. Good sized kitchen, well equipped with an electric oven, kettle, toaster, mini fridge and gas hob. Wi-Fi worked well enough for our needs, we were able to stream Netflix/Amazon Prime perfectly well. Wood burner was the only source of heating, with plenty of fire wood and kindling, worked very well for us and kept us very cosy.
