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 cosiness of the property was my favourite part. very peaceful and a lovely location and only a few minutes drive from Canterbury town. The staff were so welcoming, great communication and very attentive. I booked for my partners birthday and was very happy with the freedom and ability to decorate with balloons, banners and a cake as seen in the photos. we will definitely be returning!

United KingdomThe mattress on the pull out bed was very thin and not very comfortable. But there was a spare double quilt which we folded in half and our little one slept fine.
Loved the tree house. Really well done and we all enjoyed especially our 8 year old girl. Stuart was an excellent host and gave a nice welcome. Our little one loved the pigs also. Breakfast was brilliant.

United KingdomThe beautiful location is situated unfortunately close to the A2 and, although you can’t see it, the noise from that busy road detracts from the countryside views
Stuart was incredibly welcoming and an attentive host. he also cooks a great breakfast! There is a communal feel to the lodge and we were encouraged to use the family’s bikes, trampoline etc as our own. I stayed in the treehouse with my children, who were very excited and impressed with our accommodation. We also took the opportunity to explore in the woods and say hello to the friendly pigs who live on site.

United KingdomI think the only few things we will fault is that they should provide blankets for the outdoors especially for the evening or even if its required indoors and also if they provided a few bottles of water in the fridge that would be great like most places do. Also a bedside light would be great even if its a small one that sticks to the wall/
We enjoyed our stay at the tree house, it had amazing views and was in a good location. We loved the surrounding area, it was very peaceful and nature at its best. Stuart was very welcoming and showed us around the property when we arrived which was quite helpful especially because most places you don't even met the host. Also, It's only 10minute drive from Canterbury.
