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 village shop is expensive. If we were to go again we would get an online shop at ASDA and get it delivered which would be much cheaper (3.55 for bottle of Coca-Cola). If you are thinking of going to Alton Towers on the bus, it leaves at about 9.25 from the bus stop at the end of the driveway. And comes back about 5.30pm. The parking at Alton Towers is £7 which standard so approx 15 min walk to the park.
The park for the kids, beautiful views and it was quite no disturbances. We stayed in cottage 1 kids room had a double bed and bunk bed. Parents have a separate room with a double bed. Proper cooking facilities, plus microwave and dishwasher.

United KingdomNothing it was more than expected
The location was ideal for a weekend of fun at Alton towers. Check in was quick and simple. The children enjoyed the animals located on site and playing area. Added extras like tea coffee milk We’re appreciated and a nice gesture. The house and the site were cleaned to a high standard and the area was really calm and peaceful just what you need to relax after Busy fun packed days at the theme park.

United KingdomSmall things. WiFi was patchy, but hey - it's the country. Could have done with a fan or something as it was really hot to sleep, but for most of the year that's not going to be a problem.
The location was perfect. A very short drive from Alton Towers. The farm is serene and wonderful. It made me instantly relaxed. Our daughter had the best time, throwing sticks for the dog and feeding the guinea pigs. The alpaca had outstanding haircuts. Really cosy cottages and friendly owners.
