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.).

South AfricaFarm road not the best. Our children had small cars (Swifts) which they just managed to get down the farm road. If we go again we might try and leave their cars somewhere in Dullstroom town.
Lovely accommodation with a large fenced in yard which was such a bonus as we had 4 dogs that weekend. The walks were beautiful! Gavin was very friendly and accommodating

South AfricaNo Vodacom cellphone signal but mainly a problem due to the medical emergency that we had. Gavin did however assist with a phone and a booster. Mainly MTN. Also no wood fires allowed for a braai. Can only use charcoal. We prefer wood.
Very nice and secluded. You will need a vehicle with proper clearance to reach the farm. We had a medical emergency and Gavin was amazing in assisting us. Had a nice view over a dam and did not see the other chalets from our chalet. Facilities were great and it was like home from home. Enjoyed the fishing even if strictly catch and release. Areas around dams were neatly maintained. Will definitely visit again. Although it was not cold enough to light the fireplace there was sufficient wood to make a proper fire. Always had hot water since the water is heated by gas. The waterfall and rock pools for swimming was amazing. The staff was very friendly. We had to travel with two vehicles. The one vehicle had low clearance and Greg, the owner, assisted that we could leave one of our vehicles at his house in town. Overall we had a great experience despite the medical emergency where we had one of our family members admitted to hospital in Middelburg.

South AfricaThe driveway - we should have been warned about the condition of the road to the house. One has to have a high-rise AWD vehicle. It if rains, you’d have to have a 4x4.
The location is magnificent. So quiet and peaceful.

South AfricaThere’s nothing not to like!
The property was absolutely blissful. Fenced in with a large garden for our two medium breed dogs to have a blast! As if it weren’t enough the trails all over the area, down to the most beautiful waterfalls and trout dams were an absolute treat to take the dogs out for the day with us. Pams pools is absolutely beautiful and a must see! The fireplace is a treat & the incredibly helpful farm manager provided us with wood even when we forgot and had to ask for some on a Sunday. Overall- we would have loved to stay longer and will certainly be back

South AfricaNot an easy access to the venue which requires a vehicle with high clearance. But this also contributed to a unique experience. Be mindful of poor or no cell phone connectivity.
Tranquil, hidden gem close to Dullstroom. Beautiful walks, waterfalls and abundant bird life. Ideal place to recharge mind, body and soul. Gavin the farm manager is very friendly and helpful and makes you feel at home from the onset.

South AfricaAccess Road was not in good state of repair, however, we were warned to use high clearance vehicles. No pool queues for pool table, although we did not follow up with manager as we had plenty of games with us to play. Sofas a bit hard.
Beautiful location. Excellent host. Lovely walks and good fishing dams. Close to town but remote enough to be peaceful. Lovely fires in the evening and co.st atmosphere for a large group. Spacious rooms. Lots of space for little kids to run arounnd.

South AfricaThey mention the roads and need for ground clearance especially with all the rain - thanks! Maybe just let people know beforehand about cellphone signal. But it was not a crisis at all, thanks to the farm managers assistance.
The pools and waterfalls are absolutely lovely. We went with our 4year old and it's great that you can drive most of the way and then have more time to spend splashing about. There is no Vodacom signal at the cottages, but the farm manager is attentive, lives just a few 100meters away and in a pinch will let you call or message whoever you need to from his phone. Perfect, quiet weekend retreat.
