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 AfricaLittle Prestwick is really such a beautiful spot, with an incredible view. The hosts have thought of all the details, big and small, to make your stay super comfortable and relaxing. Jess was very accommodating and helpful with check in and check out and we'd highly recommend this spot for a country getaway. It is also nice and central in Nottingham road, so you can grab a breakfast, lunch or dinner nearby, making it very convenient.

South AfricaThere was nothing that I could fault however as a recommendation I would suggest that a small little deck be installed just outside the lounge sliding door so you can sit on the balcony deck. The stoop just outside the door is quite high and if you put a chair on the step it is a tight squeeze.
It was an amazing and beautiful stay with absolutely stunning views . Even though it is an annex and attached to the main house, you had your own private space. Very modern and elegant finishes.

We stayed for six nights while visiting family living in the area. Everything was tip top and Jess went out of her way in being a great host. The rooms being serviced each day was a big plus. I especially loved the planting along the path leading to the front door and the views of the water were so peaceful.

South AfricaThe main problem was that this property is an annex to the main house. During our stay the owner was in the UK, so we had total privacy. If the owner/s would have been there, I would not be comfortable with the idea. The house and annex is built on a beautiful farm/estate and the view spectacular, but there is no patio, no stoep or veranda. You cannot have a proper braai, as there is no braai facility, only a gasbraai on the lawn with two plastic chairs and a table. The whole idea of such a place is to spend time outdoors, but without a private patio, you will not be able to enjoy the natural beauty and the view. There is no privacy if you are outside the cabin. Secondly, the loose stones used as a pathway creates a problem for a person like me who walks with crutches due to my disability. Thirdly, the couch’s seating area is very low and I struggled to get up. The single chair is also smallish and low.
The inside of the property were excellent, beautifully decorated and fully equipped. The appliances were top quality and I have to compliment the wifi and the fact that we had no problems during load shedding. It started snowing and that enhanced the atmosphere.

South AfricaNothing - everything was top quality.
We loved everything about Little Prestwick during our recent 4-night stay. The view is exceptional, all the fittings and kitchen equipment are new and in perfect condition, and the inverter meant we were hardly aware of any load shedding. The bed is enormous, with lovely cosy warm bedding, and so comfortable! Nottingham Road is the perfect place from which to explore all directions of the Midlands Meander, and Little Prestwick the perfect base for this.

South AfricaA gas stove was available in the kitchen corner. This is a great idea in load shedding times. However, misfortunes can happen. An easy accessible fire extuinguisher should be available close by.
Neat as a pin with an awe inspiring view. Wonderful facilities. We did not even realise we experienced load shedding. The UPS switchover was perfect.
