How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewVery well equipped chalet, beds were comfortable and shower performed well. Location is perfect for Dartmouth and surrounding area. Ample parking directly outside chalet. Recommend using the park and ride for longer days in Dartmouth. The Sainsburys and Lidl are a few minutes by car. Garden time nursery in opposite direction to Dartmouth is great for breakfast, lunch and cake! We enjoyed our stay.
Nothing at the chalet affected our stay. We were very comfortable there.

Verified reviewPretty good location just outside Dartmouth Good parking options Very communicative host
So hot and no fans or air con to cool rooms off so struggled to sleep Few things were a bit tired such as window blinds
Thank you for taking the time to complete a review. We don’t unfortunately have air con in the chalet for the unseasonably hot weather we’ve had recently. We are sorry if this affected your sleep. Thank you for the lovely positive comments you left in the Chalet guest book too, saying it was ‘really comfortable accommodation ‘. It’s much appreciated. Regards Ray and Angela

Verified reviewThe settees were comfortable. Bread, Butter and milk was there on arrival which was just as well as I did not find a shop on site,
The very old broken orange blinds could not be raised or opened in any way. It was like being in a shipping container as you could not see the outside. They were dusty and the one in kitchen was greasy. The double bed was against the wall meaning that one of us would have had to clamber over the other to go to the loo, I tried to sleep in the other room where the bed was against the wardrobe making the wardrobe unusable. The bed was so uncomfortable I ended up all night on the settee. We did not unpack and only stayed one night, The loo does not flush well and blocks. There is a plunger under the sink which was useful. The photo on Booking.com of the place was an old one it does not look like that now, cannot see in through the windows as the main picture shows due to dreadful blinds. Rusty, loose and peeling rail outside and grass not cut for some time.
Wow. What a scolding review which in no way reflects the review scores of previous guests. We are disappointed you felt this way. But let’s deal with the issues in order and honestly. I guess your character is revealed in the ‘positive’ comment where we leave bread, butter and milk as a goodwill gesture. Yet you say it was a good job as no shop on site. No-ONE said there was, ANYWHERE!! Not on the listing of our chalet or any other advertised. In fact I say it’s a mile to the Sainsbury’s. The blinds are NOT old and they can be raised and opened. They also give a degree of privacy. Yes, some have been broken. Normally where the windows are opened, but this does not impact the ‘look’ or operation. There is one section of blinds that doesn’t open fully. We have tried to fix that, but again it doesn’t impact the overall operation. The pictures on the site show the bed against the wall. It can be moved away if you wish to have space. But this is the same in all chalets of this size and layout. The single beds can also be moved closer together if you wish, although access to the wardrobe is normally Accessible. Bed mattresses are replaced regularly. And we have plenty of positive comments on the comfort. We do clean the blinds, but yes when the sun shines on them the dust seems to reappear. Personally, we find that issue on all blinds. We will address the grease mentioned on the kitchen blind as best we can. We do say in the Welcome pack that you may need to flush the toilet a couple of times to clear everything. However, if it was blocked a message to me would have been appreciated and we could have addressed it. My housekeeper has subsequently assured me it is working fine. The photos of the chalet are NOT OLD and it looks EXACTLY as in them. We have no idea what you are talking about here. You can see into the chalet and out through the blinds, but as mentioned, one of the reasons we have blinds in to give a degree of privacy. Outside is maintained by the site manager. He cuts the grass regular. I will let him know your comments. The rail outside is old but this has never ever been mentioned or been an issue as it does not in any way impact the value and facilities we offer for a two bedroom detached chalet with parking in Dartmouth for the £49.50 a night you paid on a 2 night stay in June. Feedback is a gift, and we always take constructive comments and review them. If required we will act on them also. There are a couple of points you have raised we will review. But most are not valid and at times totally incorrect. There was an issue we had with you previous to your stay that I have not mentioned in here. In the end I had to call you directly to sort. Maybe that influenced your review? I hope not. I have answered the review honestly. We have nothing to hide from prospective guests and our reviews on the site and at the chalet reiterate the value proposition we try and offer. I am sorry we didn’t meet your expectations on this occasion. Finally, the Booking dot com rating is based on guest scores and feedback. You only have to look to see the positive reviews we consistantly have. They do not manipulate any of the ratings. Regards Ray and Angela

Verified reviewQuiet setting. Pretty views across the fields. Near enough to explore the area without being in the centre. Good sized chalet with nice decor and a few extras supplied, like condiments, teabags, coffee etc. Bread, butter, milk on arrival.
Bed seemed to be going downhill slightly, and springs were noisy. Had to move away from the wall as difficult for partner being a bit disabled. Hoover didn't seem to pick up.
Thank you for taking the time to complete your review. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay overall and the nice comments. Sorry about the mattress. It’s a medium as some people like soft and some hard. It does mean a bit of movement. The hoover has been used by someone to vacuum a ‘wet’ area by the looks of it. So it has dried and blocked some of the pipe. We will take a look and if necessary get a new one. Sorry to see you marked staff down? I’m sorry we could not change the dates, as you booked the 13-16th but thought you had booked the 16-19th and they had been changed. I assure you they haven’t!! We hope to host you again in the future. Regards Angela and Ray

Verified reviewWe knew the double bed against the wall wouldn’t suit us, so took our sleeping bags and used the 2 single beds which worked well for us. Lovely quiet location and a really well equipped lodge.
Thank you for taking the time to complete a review. We are a bit confused over the low score and there doesn’t appear to be any scores for the criteria above? Either way. We hope to host you again in the future. Regards Ray and Angela.

Verified reviewThe Host left bread milk tea coffee and butter which was very nice of them and smelt clean
There is nothing within walking distance, you need a car, although there is a bus that stops outside the park , it was a lovely place and the views were great. We enjoyed it and it was nice to relax,. But it is a long way to travel from where we live.
Thank you for taking the time to complete your review. We are a little confused over the low scores on location and facilities (of the chalet) and with the distance it is for you to travel from your home ? Either way, we hope to host you again. Regards Angela and Ray

Verified reviewThe accommodation is in a great location and a wonderful base to explore Dartmouth and the surrounding areas. It was very clean and presentable, as well as warm and cosy. Really well equipped and the hosts left some provisions for us upon arrival, which was a lovely gesture. Ray (host) was fantastic at communicating and extremely accommodating. Would absolutely recommend this lovely little chalet and we will definitely be back. Thank you!
I honestly can't think of anything there wasn't to like but if I was being really picky I'd suggested a couple of coat pegs or hooks on the backs of doors (but it was a struggle to think anything to write here!!)
