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 KingdomIn a perfect world the shower could have been more powerful, but it didn't spoil our stay at all. The road down to the lodge also had some large potholes- fine if you take it slowly though, just be careful!
The Lodge was incredible and totally made our stay in Skye. Perfect location next to Brother's point and the most gorgeous sunrises round the corner. Bed was very comfy and having the washer/dryer was really useful after lots of muddy walks. Will definitely be back!

United KingdomTV was damaged on arrival, messaged about it, however never did receive a response regarding this. Shower is not particularly powerful, however sufficient for needs. Driveway is narrow and a little rough, but taking it slowly is fine.
Excellent, enclosed, peaceful rural retreat, very spacious. Everything that you may need was there,. Vaulted ceiling in lounge area and bedroom made the place feel very open and comfortable. Nice and warm with the wood burning stove. Bed is large and very comfy and cosy. Complimentary bottle of wine on arrival was very thoughtful and enjoyable. Nice outdoor space with seating. Lovely location in Northern Skye, cabin feels very special when you are there, well worth the trip.

United KingdomThis is simply feedback because the question is here - the front door is rather stiff and sometimes tricky to lock. By the second day, we'd got the knack of it. It just needs a firm hand and a bit of a wiggle. Also, the TV is a decent size with a HDMI port for devices, but the screen is losing colour in places which makes some scenes a bit difficult to see. But in no way did either things impact our stay.
The Lodge was as perfect an escape as one could imagine! We loved the woodburner which keeps the cabin incredibly warm, no matter how cold it gets outside. The cabin is located at the end of a private lane, at the start of the footpath that leads to Brothers Point, so you see hikers passing in the morning, but it's very quiet and private. There's a parking space, a kind gentleman that pops over every couple of days to see if you need more firewood, and a bottle of wine on arrival. The bed is enormous, the shower has decent water pressure, the kitchen has all the utensils you need, and there's plenty of cupboards and drawers to use during longer stays.

United KingdomThe glass front door could do with a privacy curtain/screen. Especially with a busy footpath outside. We had to clean dishes/cutlery/glasses before using them.
The Lodge was perfect for cosy nights in and exploring Skye during the day. Short drive to Portree and walking distance to the Jurassic Coast. Wood shed was well stocked for the duration of our stay.

United KingdomThe shower is very weak, and the temperature is erratic. The skylight in the bedroom has no blind, but personally we loved waking up to the sunrise.
The location is absolutely outstanding - overlooking rolling hills, with just the sounds of the waterfall and the ocean. At night there is no light pollution, and you can stargaze. It's super cosy to come home to after a day's walking, the log burner is a lovely touch. The kitchen has everything you need, and the bed is super comfy.

The Lodge was perfect for the dogs too, enclosed garden was perfect. Location was great, I didn't realise how big Skye was but we were in a good location to visit the bits we wanted to see easily.

The place was spotless and the views were incredible. The lodge is close to all the major attractions up the North end of the island so it is easy to drive to and from. The decor is fantastic and the welcome bottle of wine was a nice touch. The wood burner is a great touch as well for cosy nights in after a day out hiking. The bed was unbelievably comfortable it made it very hard to get up and be productive!

Beautiful and Quiet privacy place. Surrounded by sheep and green yard. We visit Isle of Skye in spring, it is chill morning and night(~11°C), house is warm and comfortable. It is joyful experience to look through the window during sunrise and sunset. Facilities are just we need.

United KingdomYou are close to a landmark so be prepared for the odd walker to pass the front to access the public footpath (didn’t bother us). TV had no signal but you have Netflix. Marked down slightly due to a minor issue with the cleaner upon our arrival.
The lodge is in a beautiful setting right next to landmark Brothers Point which is just a short walk down to the rocky beach. Everything has been considered here from comfort and warmth to kitchen utensils ie garlic crusher etc. There is decking at the front door with a picnic bench and sheep are in the vicinity constantly which is wonderful to wake up to. Short drive to various landmarks and Staffin is very close by. Lovely hot shower, plenty of towels, loo rolls etc. There is even basics like wash up liquid, condiments, tea towels, washing machine capsules etc. Huge comfy bed. Easy to use log burner makes for a cosy night in with Netflix on and a glass of complimentary wine.

United KingdomA welcome folder for how to use the appliances, how to recycle etc would've been handy, but it didn't detract at all from the holiday.
A stunning location on the north-eastern coast of the island. The views were breath-taking and ever-changing. It snowed, which was wonderful. A water main burst due to the cold, leaving all the houses in the area without water for a few hours, however the property managers were there straight away with water supplies whilst it was being fixed.
