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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 KingdomWe liked everything!
Amazing property with all the mod cons and very well appointed and extremely comfortable! Jacuzzi bath, en-suite bedrooms, wood burner, fabulous open kitchen/dining with both AGA and very modern cooking facilities. A relaxing and peaceful stay in a rural setting surrounded by hens, peacocks, goats, cows and ponies. Great for families! Very helpful and welcoming owners.

Fantastic holiday home, with all the mod cons you are living in luxury! No expense has been spared giving the 5* rating which this home truly deserves. The host was brilliant, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the house and all its contents, as well as the knowledge on the array of wonderful animals he kept there. Beautiful setting, me and my family will be back for sure.

Everything was AMAZING. Huge living areas. Beautiful furnishings and space to enjoy all of the living areas. Games provided. WiFi & Netflix. Beautiful kitchen was spacious and fully equipped. Enough wood to keep a dozen fires going!! Can’t say enough nice things about the Steading. Anthony was brilliant and very helpful. Cannot fault it.

United KingdomCastleview is an amazing property. The beds are so comfortable, with lovely bedding and shutters in the main bedroom. I noted blackout curtains in the other bedroom too. All 3 bedrooms are ensuite, with beautiful bathrooms. We were able to fully relax and enjoyed the sounds of the countryside, it is such a peaceful place to stay. There was only the 2 of us staying, but the property is enormous so can easily accommodate 6 - 8 people. Anthony is a great host, he has thought of everything, we had a wonderful welcome pack, lovely toiletries, quality toilet rolls, washing powder, fabric conditioner and dishwasher tablets to hand. Full access to cleaning equipment and cleaning liquids. This was our first holiday alone in 19 years now our 4 children have grown up, it was absolutely perfect, I would highly recommend staying here and we will bring the family next time.

A perfect home from home with breathtaking fittings in every room. It is perfect & we were made to feel that it was most definitely our own home; albeit for just a few days. Thank you

United KingdomWe did NOT enjoy having to leave 😪 Even during a storm it's breathtaking.
Just home after a magical 5 days @ Castleview with 3 teens & my partner . Tony & Caroline are amazing hosts who went above and beyond to offer help when we needed it, especially during Storm We had to stay an extra night which was a bonus 😁 Caroline kindly brought us groceries to keep us going. We all felt very much at home during our stay. Comfy beds & sofas, lovely log fire, underfloor heating, ice on tap for our drinks 🥰 Kids loved the jacuzzi. Amazing views and loved hearing the babbling brook. Was great seeing the animals every day too. We're definitely coming back next year....it's a little piece of heaven ❤️ P.S. Tony's map drawing skills are epic!!!

United KingdomSurround sound speakers didn’t work but we brought our own speakers anyway so wasn’t really a problem.
Have nothing to complain about - idyllic location but close enough drive to shops/restaurants/things to do. Property was very well equipped, spacious and surrounded by lots of farm animals which we loved. Surprisingly, the animals didn’t wake us up in the mornings which was our initial worry. All the animals were very friendly, great company and entertainment. Beds were really comfy, an excellent well-equipped kitchen for cooking and lots of space for entertainment and to just relax. It was ideal that each room had their own personal en suite with also a communal toilet downstairs. The communication with Anthony and Caroline was excellent - replied really fast and were very accommodating. They also gave us many delicious eggs from their chicken coup, which went down a treat every morning for breakfast. Amazing value for money. Will definitely be back to stay!

United Kingdomwhat is there not to like!! beautiful place.
First things first, Anthony took in our Tesco delivery and packed it away for us as we got caught in traffic on way, which he didn’t have to but we are grateful and thrilled he did. The property is out of this world , amazing views and a great size. It was a difference from being in the city , so peaceful and calm. Just what we needed.
