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 KingdomThe hot tub was not clean there was a build up of residue around the hot tub this could have been done with being emptied after each stay cleaned out and then refilled. There was also no lighting around the pergola and outdoor sitting area but we felt this had been done on purpose to prevent people sitting outside later than the 10pm curfew for the hot tub.
It was modern and spacious with a lovely outdoor area.

United KingdomThe floors were a little dirty, our socks were all black after only an hour or two in the lodge. Not a big issue for us but maybe a steam clean wouldn’t go a miss! The beds were also quite small so maybe a bigger bed in the rooms that had the space would be ideal. Although these thing’s absolutely didn’t take away from our weekend!
These lodges were great, everyone absolutely loved staying here. Everything was well equipped and the outdoor space is amazing. We had 2 lodged right next to each other and we had the hot tub which was great as well as the BBQ was an awesome thing to have. Overall we had a great weekend!

United KingdomUnfortunately we couldn’t make use of the hot tub as it was awaiting a part to repair it. There was insufficient cutlery which was dealt with quickly and we were grateful for that. The property only provided plastic tumblers and again still not enough for the number staying. I totally understand the need for plastic when using the hot tub and outside area but having no choice for indoor use was very disappointing. I have stayed in properties with hot tubs which provide both glass and plastic.
The location was excellent. We didn’t travel too far to be in beautiful countryside. It’s also very close for exploring Loch Lomond, we took the opportunity to have a boat trip on the Loch, which I would definitely recommend.

United KingdomNothing really. If I had to say one thing it would be that Balloch isn't just a stroll away. However, we knew this from the description. We did walk there and back and the route is beautiful if you come back past Balloch Castle. So this isn't really a negative at all. In the evening we did go to eat in Balloch but we took the car as it would be a bit of a walk in the dark however, we did see other people from other lodges using a taxi service so the next time we might try that.
The lodge was very luxurious and spacious. More than enough space for me, my husband, my daughter, her boyfriend and my son. We also had our big hairy bearded collie with us and he loved it. We were very respectful of the fact that everything was cleaned and maintained to a very high standard and so we took care of it as we would our own home. James was very accommodating and a pleasure to deal with. The outside area to the rear is amazing but unfortunately the weather wasn't very kind to us so we didn't get to use it much. I would definitely book this property again in the future. We had a great stay.
