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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

South AfricaThe 6 km gravel road was somewhat of a challenge, but not a problem if you take it slowly.
Lovely cottage with all required amenities. Beautiful setting with great birdlife and mountains. Firewood was supplied upon request and we enjoyed the fire and star gazing in the Karoo. Highly recommended and we will be back!

South AfricaReally only a few minor details. Kitchen sink would have been happy with a decent plug, the coffee plunger might need to be renewed, an extra light bedsheet between duvet and mattress covers for those very warm nights.
Natural surroundings, various hiking opportunities, beauty of the area, privacy, nice stoep to sit and relax, very accommodating and friendly hosts, cared for interior and exterior.

South AfricaThe only less positive feedback: The bed was a bit hard, had some stiff backs the next morning. But the quiet surroundings gave us a good night's rest.
The cottage was clean and in immaculate condition. The area was clean and peaceful.

A place where you can relax close to nature and forget about everything else. The whole experience was amazing and we will definately be back. Not one thing wrong.

United StatesSuch a great cottage! Clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The kitchen is well equipped. Gas stove/oven and lamp bulbs that hold a charge make loadshedding manageable. Really appreciated the heater in the bedroom and the wood stove in the living room while visiting in winter. Wonderful front porch for lounging and admiring the view. The area is beautiful. The host is very thoughtful and is great about communicating and providing specific directions/instructions for traveling to and accessing the property. The property is a working farm and they have mince kudu and beef available for purchase by the kilo. We loved the rural location outside of Graaff-Reinet. The 6.5km on gravel road was totally passable with our 2-wheel drive/lower clearance sedan (sections of washboard are a bit of a nuisance, but not a problem). Wish we could have stayed longer! Highly recommended.

South AfricaIf you have any sort of spider or insect phobia, this is not the place for you - better to stay in town.
I cannot rate my experience highly enough. I enjoyed two weeks of peace and tranquility while still able to get necessary work done thanks to reliable WiFi (except for periods of load-shedding). Plenty of different corners of the farm to explore on long walks and wonderful birdlife. Town is just a few minutes drive away. Provision made for lighting and cooking during load-shedding. Hosts of both the human and dog variety very friendly and welcoming.

South AfricaWhen it's load shedding at night, you can't open the windows for a breeze as it lets the insects in from the bush.
Lovely stop over place. Secluded in nature. The most amazing sunset and sunrise! Will definitely stop over again.

South AfricaWhat a lovely gem? Everything you needed for a comfortable stay with the added openess of a farmstay. We were nearly caught by unsuspected flash floods but the owners fixed the roads early the next day. Lovely family. Don't stay for only one night - it's hatd to leave.

South AfricaMany insects at night - suppose it is to be expected on a Karoo farm. No decent coffee - would have made the stay even better if there was!
Location is on a farm - peaceful and quiet but not far from the main road. Comfortable size. Value for money. Neat and clean.
