Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomPaying £20 to take our four-legged friend, but being made to feel segregated and isolated when dining. The areas for guests with dogs, were either in the small bar area, where tables were not set for dining, upstairs above the restaurant where no one else was sat ( this was also closed for cleaning when we enquired about other options at breakfast) or the lounge/snug ( which had a wedding party in the first night, so was un available and on the second night, was again empty) The restaurant area was busy and had atmosphere, yet we were unable to sit in there, as we had our very well behaved dog statying with us. I can't understand the logic as the restaurant was a flagged floor, and the areas we were told we could use with a dog were carpeted? Because we were sat in an area not used by most guests who were eating, it was very apparent on the first night that we had been forgotten, our food took a very long time to arrive, and was luke warm.
The peaceful location of the lodges. Perfect for a relaxing break. Watching squirrels play right outside your door was perfect.

United KingdomThe shower was intermittently hot and cold. The outside of the cabin was dirty and there were cracked paving stones leading to the door. The outside areas could be a lot more well kept and attractive.
I have stayed here many times and love the location and peace of the cabins in the trees. I didn’t use the spa this time but looked as if work was being done to extend the facilities. The food at breakfast and dinner was delicious and everyone was very helpful and friendly.The bed was very comfortable.

United Kingdomthe hotel could have been warmer, the sauna and steam room were in the daytime too lukewarm . One other couple complained about their room being too small and cold.
The park outside is lovely and green. Our room was spacious and clean and comfortable. I felt it was good value for money.

United KingdomStayed in bishop suite..very dated felt old could do with updating,carpet even though hoovered felt unclean. No toilet roll and the hot water had to be reported but both was sorted quickly. Heater in living area didn’t work but there was a mobile one in there. I think I payed too much for this stay it would have been better had a breakfast been included.
Location was perfect..staff were all lovely especially lady on reception (maybe Anne Marie)

The property was small but big enough for our requirements. Very dog friendly! Kirsty on reception was fantastic and answered all our questions professionally. She is a credit to the management. Food was excellent and all staff extremely friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe heating in the Lodges could be better! Putting towel radiators in the bathrooms and larger wall radiators would make a vast improvement, especially in winter months. All we had was an oil filled radiator to heat two rooms! I feel the bed pillows need improving as they were uncomfortable and flat. The indoor pool and hot tub in the spa needed to be a bit warmer! However, we still enjoyed our stay despite the above!
The hotel staff were lovely. The feel of the hotel is warm and welcoming. The location is beautiful. The food was lovely, great breakfast choices. We enjoyed using the spa facilities. We enjoyed our night away at this hotel and definitely plan to return!
