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.).

Excellent stay. Plenty of parking. A harty farm breakfast, lovely service. We stayed in the Watersmeet room, A lovely large room with four poster bed and separate room with tea coffee making facilities and the table and chairs which we liked as we like to play games. A lovely bathroom with shower and bath. A huge amount of storage space. Comfy bed. Use of a large deep (one end) covered swimming pool. Beautiful views over Exmoor especially when having breakfast in the conservatory. Large smart TV. Nothing was too much trouble.

Good welcome by Richard . Accommodation very roomy and comfortable. We chose the accommodation as it was close to a variety of walks two directly from the farm which was perfect. Breakfast included fresh local produce. The bonus was that two very good pubs were just minutes drive away. For September we were lucky with the weather. Great stay

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing, there is nothing not to like
The breakfast was the best, well cooked, well presented, plenty of choice, Wilsham farm only has four rooms and we all ate roughly at the same time, so it was lovely to catch up with the other guests and the host to discuss your days plans plus it is a wild life lovers paradise, we saw red deer, kestrels, buzzards, peregrine falcon, sheep, exmoor ponys, plus the five farm dogs Flapjack in the room is to die for!!!!!!

United KingdomWe were surprised that there was no lock on outside of any of the room doors so the room was unlocked when we went out. However, there was no issue during our stay and we could lock it from the inside.
Homemade flapjacks in room which were delicious. Fresh milk provided daily and kept in shared fridge. Delicious Devon breakfast and granola. Great view from conservatory where breakfast was eaten.

United KingdomTo find something that we didn't like is difficult, probably the shower pressure.
The owners of the property Richard and Jane were truly lovely. They were very amenable and did everything they could to make our stay an enjoyable experience. The breakfast food was exceptional from the home made breakfast choices, to how everything was carefully prepared and presented. The rooms were comfortable and very clean, with fresh white towels and dressing gowns to use in the pool area. The pool itself was well cared for and the temperature of the water was great. The views from the pool are incredibly relaxing, just to sit and read after your swim. The countryside surrounding Wilsham is beautiful and you can walk to Watermeet from the farm. There are so many places to visit including many Natoinal Trust around there, plus the Valley of the Rocks is worth it. We didn't always have the best of weather but we both still throughly enjoyed our stay at this breathtaking place. If you like to walk, or just chill out. This is the place to visit.
