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 KingdomThe house is a great mix of old and new. The building itself is really old, but has been decorated modern, whilst still having character and charm. The location is great and is pretty central to a lot of different things, whether it be the lakes or Barnard castle. The hosts are really friendly and are a credit to the property.

Cottage was immaculately clean, warm and well provisioned. Very spacious and cosy, the barn has been converted to a high standard and felt very homely. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will return again.

Dairy Cottage is in a great location with easy access to The Dales. The accommodation was excellent. Beautifully decorated with all the facilities you would need. The kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans/cutlery/linens. Even tin foil and kitchen towel. All your cleaning equipment too. The kitchen also had a lovely reading nook populated with local books. The lounge was very comfortable and spacious with a lovely log burner style gas burner and smart TV. Both bedrooms had extremely comfortable beds with super bed linen. Both bathrooms were well appointed. One with a shower over bath and the other a luxurious walk in shower. Soft towels were provided. We had excellent communication with the owners who always greeted us with a smile and could not be more helpful. The village does not have a local shop but the co-op in Kirkby Stephen was only 10-15 mins drive away. There is however a lovely village pub which you can walk to in 5-10 minutes. All in all an excellent cottage. Any visitors will not be disappointed.

Dairy cottage was, without a doubt, the best place we have ever stayed in. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had struck gold! The owners are so friendly and go out of their way to make your stay a great one. The cottage was immaculately clean, cosy, welcoming and just perfect for our stay in every way. We didn’t want to go home! You will not be disappointed if you book Dairy cottage! We will definitely be back.

United KingdomNothing to dislike
The property is done out to a very high standard. It is well equipped, warm and cosy with very comfortable beds. The owners have gone above and beyond with great attention to detail. This is a really lovely holiday home and we felt privileged to stay here. The village pub is very handy and serves excellent food. The location is ideal for walking and Mountain biking.
