Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

United KingdomWe really liked the high quality of the accommodation, the outstanding charm of the building (including the mill waterwheel and the old front door), and the super attentive and helpful hosts. The tennis court and the meticulously maintained garden gave us loads of opportunity to relax. And of course, playing with the two dogs of the house was an endless source of fun!

United KingdomGuy and Cindy went above and beyond to make our weekend a memorable one. The mill is beautiful and their personal touches make it like a home from home. The garden is stunning and we enjoyed walking around it with our baby and their 2 dogs. The breakfast was 10/10 and set us up well for our days out, and they made sure our baby had a great dining experience too! Superb hosts, we will recommend this place to all of our friends and family

They have one and although I did not have the opportunity to use it, sitting next to it with a lovely cup of tea was just as good. I did not want to leave.

United KingdomWe found the property fairly easily but a what3words address would have been easier.
Hewletts Mill is a superb B&B. The property is amazing and it’s set in an immaculate garden surrounded by the River Cam. The hosts, Cindy & Guy, were extremely pleasant but not overbearing and clearly have a good eye for interior design. We had previously stayed in the fabulous but very pricey Newt Hotel which is nearby, however in finding Hewletts Mill we discovered our own mini Newt!

Our lovely spacious room had wonderful high beamed ceilings and an extremely comfortable bed. The following morning we had a fabulous breakfast.
