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.).

United KingdomThe bed unfortunately wasn’t very comfy, other than that it was perfect.
We did self catering and had everything we needed in the well equipped kitchen. You could have eaten at the on site restaurant.

United KingdomNothing really my opinion they should take more notice of outside lodge.i.e. a jet wash around decking area because of trees and wild Life as there was a lot of dead flies cob webs and moss stains on railing and bird mess. And update chairs and tables as 2 were broken when we arrived.
This lodge was fantastic for what we paid, onsite jjs bar was lovely brilliant staff service and food lovely. Nice peaceful area perfect for getting away with family to chill out. Definitely we return at a later date. 😁

United StatesThe bed was not the best, as mattress is basically sofa bed quality. Mattress upgrade is the only suggestion, and if possible, have hairdryers on request for foreign visitors, as I was unable to use mine with the UK power outlet.
I've just returned from a lovely stay. The cottage was immaculate and equipped with anything you could need or want. Modern decor with lots of windows and light. Checkin took less than 2 minutes. The woman at the desk was friendly and welcoming. I was on my own but felt safe both in the lodge and on my morning walks around the park. The location is ideal, especially as it is close to Pocklington and not far from York. JJs restaurant is right there, which had great food and wonderful service. I will look forward to staying again in the future. Thank you. XX

Very nice cabins with hot tub. Plenty of space. Hot tub at the rear of cabin, which provided privacy. Local area nice for food drink and local walks in the rural area. Had a wonderful Sunday roast at JJ.s bar & restaurant situated near the main reception.

United Kingdom- if you are coming on a hot day bring your fan because the lodge can get extremely hot and no matter how many windows you’ll have open it won’t help much - if you are ordering any celebration packages maybe call a day before to ensure it’s done as I’ve booked it and paid for it couple weeks before arrival and when we’ve arrived birthday package was not there (not really lodges fault as they’ve said they are using external company and they’ve missed it- refunded money straight away - not a lot of privacy for the hot tub as you have all other lodges in line next to yours from both sides - spring mattress so it can be tricky sleeping on it as you can feel the springs constantly due to wear and tear - very late check in (4pm) and early checkout (9-10am) however you can get late checkout for extra price
the location is absolutely amazing. allethorpe park is so peaceful and nice, after 10pm you can’t hear anything and just enjoy and relax. the lodge was absolutely great for a price, all needed things were there (cutlery, pans, pots, even board games/card games/dvd’s!). knowing that the lodge is pet friendly it was really clean. the hot tub was great too. and the food in JJ’s Kitchen is to die for (we didn’t eat in the restaurant, we’ve ordered online for the pick up and it was ready in 20 minutes!). you also get emergency number which you can call if you have any issues. checking and checkout extremely easy. great amenities near by, plenty of shops only 4 minutes drive from and allethorpe lakeland 3 minutes drive from which was great.

United KingdomThe hot tub felt a little overlooked by the lodges on either side, it would have benefited from a little privacy screening to reduce our 4 year old from inviting conversation with the neighbours when we were partially dressed getting in / out of the hot tub and removing / replacing the hot tub lid. The hot tub lid was a little awkward to put fully back in place from the veranda and meant my partner had to get dressed to go round the back of the hot tub to make sure the lid was back on properly, it took the edge off unwinding and relaxing to then have to get dressed to replace the lid.
We loved the lodge, very spacious and clean, perfect for our little family getaway. The lodge was set in beautiful grounds which our 2 young children enjoyed exploring in the evening once the golfers had finished for the day. There was no sales pressure to access other facilities on site so we were able to completely relax and do what suited us as a family. Very friendly staff at check in / check out, they were really good with our kids and gave them some Halloween treats for the road trip home. We really appreciated the 1pm late checkout as it meant we could enjoy our last evening there rather than having to pack for an early checkout on the morning of our departure.
