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 KingdomThere wasn't anything we didn't like. All fabulous!
Beautiful location and the pods are amazing, very cozy and so many amenities! The hot tub was a massive hit, super clean and easy to use. We made full use of the firepit with BBQ for dinner followed by toasted marshmallows. Marshmallows left for us to toast at the fire pit was a lovely touch! We particularly loved feeding the sheep and goats in the morning and getting some chat John :)

United KingdomWe lived in the Nettle house. It was lovely and clean. It had everything we needed for cooking. Beds comfortable and plenty pillows. Kids loved the upstairs bedroom. House lovely and warm and hot tub was very clean. We were supplied with a basket of wood and lighters for the fire plus marshmallows for the kids. The owners were so friendly and helpful and allowed the kids to feed the sheep and goats. 5 minutes drive takes you to the shops and restaurants and play parks for the kids. Really quiet and peaceful. Definitely stay here again.

United KingdomThe bed upstairs wasn't so comfortable, and I would love to have the jacuzzi covered with some roof so you can still use it when it's raining. Apart from that, it was all to the highest standard.
We had a really nice and relaxed stay at The Cuddies. Highly recommended 👌

United KingdomLiked all aspects of the trip couldn’t fault a single part really.
amazing location just a couple miles from loch lomond - didn’t feel too out the way but was also quiet enough. John and Doneil who run the Cuddies couldn’t have been friendlier, and were more than happy to answer any questions. I particularly loved meeting the goats and would come back purely to see them!

United StatesWe loved everything about this place! The units are incredibly desgined - small but efficient with everything we needed. Our family rented out all three units and it was perfect. John and Doniel were so friendly, there for all we might have needed, and showed our little ones the farm and the animals, even letting them feed the goats. We were just sorry the weather made it so we couldnt light the fire at night or use the hot tubs! Tips for other travellers Though the location is out in the country there are towns not far to go to. We went to Stirling castle one day (about 45 minutes away) and on another day we went to Luss - a super cute town. No doubt if the weather was better we would have had a chance to take some great hikes nearby!

United KingdomNothing, everything was excellent.
Amazing location with stunning views. The pods were the perfect size, well heated and exceptionally clean. The hot tub was brilliant on a cold, clear night. Doneil came to greet us on arrival and the hosts salted and gritted the pathways every morning and tended to the hot tub daily. 100% would recommend and definitely will stay again.
