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 KingdomI was a little disappointed as this lodge was advertised as having a machine machine (it doesn't) and there isn't a laundry on site either. I packed under the pretence of doing some washing whilst there. The TV had lots of interference, Netflix/prime wouldn't work (tried logging in to our own accounts) and the TV would crash/turn off - we eventually got digital TV something like on Saturday evening. Being a little picky - but the decking was covered in moss/algae/green stuff around the edges - could do with a little jet wash. We did report this to reception upon departure and they said they would report that and the slight leak under the sink to maintenance, so hopefully that is resolved for the next people staying there.
We had a really nice 2 night stay at this property. The lodge itself was clean, warm and comfortable. Decor was nice and modern. Had a hairdryer, iron and ironing board, hand wash, washing up liquid and a sponge, cutlery etc, and some tea/coffee which was a nice touch. Bedding and towels were clean. Overall we would recommend. Restaurant on site was lovely - we ate our evening meal on arrival and enjoyed our breakfast upon departure. The staff were friendly. We didn't see much of the site. The recent heavy rainfall meant a lot of the site was waterlogged/large puddles and we had a little rain whilst there too, although the ducks seem to enjoy it! The site grounds were overall well maintained and litter free.

Me and and my partner absolutely loved this lodge! It was extremely clean, tidy and just a beautiful location. The hot tub was a perfect touch!! Just gutted we didn't book longer, although we will be back.

United Kingdom- We had a wasps nest under our decking next to the hot tub, we informed the reception but they wasn’t keen to help as we informed them about 4. They had maintenance come round and have a look but couldn’t do anything. It was the week when it was the heat wave so you can imagine how hot it was in the lodge as we couldn’t even open the doors or windows!
- The location was lovely - The staff in the restaurant were so friendly

United KingdomThe staff were completely inept. The TV didn't work, the dining table bench was broken. We reported this to the staff & they fobbed us off. After we got home we contacted them about an item we had left behind. I rang at least 6 times & spoke to them about it. Suffice to say we didn't get our possession back & after my final call complaining about their lack of help I was assured it would be looked into & that I would be contacted the next day. After over a month I have had no phone call from them. They are completely inept & unhelpful. They are quick to take your money but their company is shoddy & absolutely unprofessional. I would not recommend a stay here. There are so many things wrong I can't list them all.

United KingdomCan’t check in while 4 and have to be out by 10. Doesn’t give you much time when only booking for a couple of nights. Couldn’t get booked into restaurant on site so had to travel into nearest village.
Hot tub was good. Large enough and clean. Nice secluded area so peaceful stay.

United Kingdomit was not very clean. The main toilet was not cleaned properly with pubic hairs round the base. The covers over the extraction fans were very dirty. The bed was so uncomfortable that we left early. Disappointed at the torn net curtains. I asked a member of staff for a piece of equipment (potato masher) she said that there should be one. But she never brought one. Not really 5 star.
It was well equipped and warm. Clean towels and linen.
