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.).

Located in the picturesque village of Carlton Husthwaite, Swan Cottage is a delightful cottage set in a beautiful garden. Hosts Colin and Sue are very welcoming. Breakfast is a wide choice from a tasty menu to suit all tastes and served with a view to the extensive garden. It was cold when we were there, however cottage was warm and comfortable. Village gives easy access to the A19 and York plus short distance to North York Moors and the delights of places likes Reivaulx and Hemsley.

Our two days at Swan Cottage were a delight. Our hosts, Suzie and Colin, made sure we felt like we were staying with family in their 300 year old beautifully decorated home. Very spacious room with comfortable bed, arm chairs and sofa, television, wifi plus a very large bathroom e suite. The breakfast was huge and full of lovely options. A short walk past the quant village church to the pub for dinner. Parking onsite and of course two very friendly dogs to help make us feel at home. A perfect spot to explore York, Castle Howard and so many other local spots. We will be back.

Suzy and Colin welcomed us into their gorgeous home. A pretty cottage, just off the village Green and a minutes walk to the village pub. The room was fantastic with original features, a very comfortable king size bed and a lovely seating area by the window. The bathroom was spacious and had both a bath and a separate shower. What can I say about breakfast other than it was fantastic. Lots of choice, vey good quality ingredients and the setting was beautiful; in the dining room with views out over the garden. Lots of walks in the local area and a short drive to Thirsk. We loved our stay. Thank you Suzy and Colin for making us feel at home and we look forward to staying again.
