Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

A warm night as I had to keep the window closed due to road noise, beans with breakfast is standard but for some reason not here, which meant breakfast was a bit dry.
Good value, nice sized room and bathroom, the breakout lounge is a real bonus.

- • Twin Room with Private Bathroom

A more definite address would have helped. The rooms each had separate entrances like a motel although breakfast was in the main house.
The location should not have been a problem but our rental car GPS deposited us in a housing estate. The postal code was insufficient to get us there easily. A Good Samaritan helped us find the B&B but in the process I dropped my phone in his car. Looking for someone from whom to get directions, we forgot where we parked our car and needed help finding it. Our host was very helpful allowing us to make (and take) calls to the friends we had just left in Edinburgh that night and the next day. We arrived early evening and were exhausted by the day's events. In the morning we took advantage of extra space in an adjacent suite to map out the route to our next stop. We eventually had the phone returned by mail. Breakfast was good though we did not have "a full English."

Nothing not to like
What a gem! Set on a farm just off the motorway so easily accessible but the rooms back on to beautiful countryside view. Rooms are so clean, got everything you need. Love the addition of the communal area, lounge, dining area kitchen; again has everything you need and clean. Host was wonderful, breakfast was amazing, all home cooked. Would 1000% love to stay again.

Room 5 (where I stayed) is very quiet, clean and comfortable, albeit a little basic. The most important thing for me on business travel is a good nights sleep and the quiet room made this possible. The owners are really friendly, accommodating and helpful. The breakfast is outstanding and freshly cooked. Location is perfect for exploring Glasgow, Edinburgh and surrounding areas.

Very quiet and rural location, even though it's close to the highway. The rooms, although not very spacious, are very comfortable. We also had access to a common area next to the rooms with a living room and kitchen, where we could relax and watch TV Amenities include coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. The host was very friendly and communicative. Private parking. A varied and complete Scottish breakfast prepared by the hostess. We really enjoyed it. Thank you.
