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 KingdomNothing, everything was perfect!
Buckle up for a long review, because I cannot say enough good things about this place! Easy to find, parking on the door step (extra parking over the bridge, less than 2minutes walk away if needed), the house was spacious and spotlessly clean, a well equipped kitchen and a courtyard style garden which is secure for dogs/children, extremely comfortable beds, soft towels that smelt devine and a shower with fab pressure and lots of hot water. The front bedroom over looks the river and the location was so, so peaceful, even my partner who suffers insomnia and usually averages 3-4hrs sleep a night, was getting 8-9hrs sleep here! Town is a short walk away and the fells are within 15min drive. Simon (the host) was extremely helpful when I locked my partner out and also provided thorough instructions prior to arrival. I honestly cannot recommend this property enough, I will definitely stay here again and I will be telling all my friends and family about it! Thank you

United KingdomNot so much not like but maybe a double bed that can turn into 2 single beds in one of the bedrooms ,not everyone travels with a couple.
The cottage is a 10mins walk from the town centre so ideal for food/drink and shopping. An ideal base for the lakes.

United KingdomIt would have been nice to have a welcome pack - there was just a small bottle of milk. The cottage does lack a woman’s touch in my opinion but that didn’t really deter from our enjoyment.
The cottage is in a lovely quiet location overlooking the river Cocker. Everywhere was clean and the bed was lovely and comfortable. We loved the settees with the recliners and it was good to be able to access Amazon Prime and Netflix on the TV.

United KingdomNothing - it was perfect ❤️
Beautiful home from home which had everything you could hope for during your stay. It was modern, tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. The photos are a really accurate representation of how pretty this property looks and it is extremely well maintained. The location was also so lovely looking onto the river and perfect for exploring the town area and wider area. It was so close to the main street, but also just 3 mins walk to a lovely park for walking my 2 dogs. The garden and neighbour were both lovely too. We highly recommend this beautiful property for anyone wishing to explore the Lake District and wider area, plus we found 2 beautiful beaches closeby too. PS Communication with the owners was brilliant too and even a helpful little video with directions which was a first for me. :) No

United KingdomThe host, Simon, was very helpful and friendly and easy to communicate with. The property was really lovely, with a nice place to eat together in the kitchen and a lovely downstairs space to socialise. The river is located at the front of the property so it was lovely to sit out by the river with a glass of wine in the evening/cup of tea in the morning. The garden was lovely, with a nice picnic bench to sit at. The neighbours were also very friendly! Cockermouth is a great place to stay too, with easy access to lots of stunning walks round the lakes and some nice spots for dinner/to grab any essentials in the day. Cockermouth itself has lovely short evening walks too, especially by the River Derwent.
