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 KingdomSome beds too springy, but very hard to please everyone when it come to beds. Could do with a few maintenance issues dealing with. A couple of window handles broken or stiff which felt like they where going to break. The decking areas have various rotten panels and posts and need staining to protect from the Scottish weather.
Nice spacious log cabin. Very well equipped Warm Absolutely massive television in the living area Washing machine and drier available plus dish washer. Various ovens and an air frier available. 2 bathrooms one ensuite. One large double bed the other bedrooms had 2 single beds in each. Good location and quiet.

United KingdomOur single mattresses were really quite uncomfortable - could feel the springs coming through and would really benefit from replacing. But other than that… faultless.
It had absolutely everything we needed. Location was brilliant, was peaceful - spacious and all communications really helpful.

United KingdomNot a lot really but a bit of maintenance is needed the guttering outside the front door was hanging off in a couple of places and pouring water onto the decking and steps making them green and very slippy and the toilet in the ensuite was very slow to fill, but I'm sure that will be sorted come the quieter months
The log cabin is pretty big, more than enough room for the 6 of us, the main bedroom has ensuite which was great for mum and dad, the other 2 bedrooms were twin beds and were a good size, served by a family bathroom, the living area was pretty generous with a good well equipped kitchen and nice dining area, Kippford it's self is a 10 minute walk

United KingdomThis is a lovely property, however it was affected by a long list of snagging issues, that could be easily remedied with a little TLC. There were also issues regarding cleanliness: the baby high chair provided was dirty. There were a number of long black hairs on the bathroom floor in the en-suite, we were all blondes.
Well situated, large, well equipped, warm, well furnished, comfortable.
