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 KingdomWas a little hard to find the entrance to the property when we travelled home one day in the dark, but Deborah our host did provide good directions. Cannot be helped though.
Beautiful and comfortable accommodation, all the facilities and furnishings and extra touches were fantastic. Good cooking facilities. Friendly hosts and good location- 10 minute drive from Canterbury and to the beaches. Very peaceful and private. A fantastic stay and would definitely visit again. Thank you to our hosts

United KingdomWe always prefer a rural location away from the hustle and bustle so this was perfect. Great for cycling on the crab and winkle trail, walking and yet close enough to explore Canterbury and other local seaside towns.

United KingdomVery friendly warm welcome when we arrived. We were shown how to use the microwave etc. Tea, coffee and milk was provided. The place was very comfortable. Under floor heating in the bedroom and shower room. We wanted a quiet relaxing night away from the children and pets and this was perfect. We went out in the evening for a meal and then in the morning we drove into Canterbury for a fry up.

United KingdomAbsolutely perfect accommodation. Loved everything about it. The location is perfect as it's hidden away in woods from busy towns and traffic but a short distance drive to Canterbury and seaside town Whitstable. Accommodation was presented on the highest level. The Host is professional and very friendly..she cares about your comfort and experience. Not a single disturbance during the night..I left the window open during the night..only could hear birds singing. The place is very modern and furnished very well. Very clean and tidy throughout the property. The kitchen has got everything to prepare your dinner . I will be returning soon for sure. Outstanding experience.

United KingdomThere is very little we did not like apart from the lack of a window in the bedroom and the tiny shower cubicle. We were cautious about driving out of the drive as it can be difficult to see oncoming cars in the main road.
We fell in love with the idyllic, tranquil, and private setting this place has to offer. Although the hosts live within the grounds, we did not feel overlooked. We were made welcome by the host and shown round the property. It was bigger than expected, spacious and clean. The open plan kitchen, dining and living area was tastefully decorated giving it a calm ambience. The usual standard facilities were available, with free litre of milk in the fridge! The shower/toilet was very spacious; however, the shower cubicle was smaller in proportion to the size of the room. My husband would have liked it bigger to move around. The bedroom was huge with plenty of storage (wardrobe and a chest of drawers) and the bed very comfortable. We appreciated the blackout curtains and blinds. We would have liked to a bedroom window that we can leave opened for overnight. The location was great; it did not take us long to find the Canterbury city centre and to drive to the coast. We would certainly highly recommend this property despite the cost!

United KingdomNothing we didn't like but in terms of feedback for improvement we would say that the annexe should be given a name of its own and better signage out the front because the postcode covers a broad area .
Outstanding contemporary Annexe in a beautiful location. Accommodating and friendly owners. Spotless and well equipped. Quiet, Safe, Gated property. The property is a very large one bedroom annexe with a kitchen containing a washing machine , microwave , coffee machine , instant hot tap, a stove, cutlery and crockery, kettle and toaster. The place has air-con, under floor heating in the bedroom, integrated blinds , a very comfy bed, power shower, plenty of storage, plenty of plugs, free fast WiFi . The list goes on.. this is very well equipped for either leisure or work trips and although it feels extremely remote it is 10 minutes from Whitstable and Canterbury and has a good phone signal (no signal in the toilet for some reason ) . The owners were helpful lovely people who couldn't do more to help. In terms of self catering accommodation What you get here for your money is better than anything rose I've found in the area . Also space for one car and the property is gated giving a feeling of safety. Shame they won't take dogs but they explained they had dig related damage before so we completely understand why they won't take dogs now . We came for one night with our baby. Plenty of room for the travel cot . We all had a great sleep and will definitely come again .

The bathroom was lovely and the sink was amazing we wasn’t batting for room at any point of the stay and the kitchen had everything and more. From start to finish we was greeted very warmly and shown around the property which was very nice and it made us feel very welcome. I cannot fault any part of the stay at all.
