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...).

NetherlandsQuite far away from closest village, the oven doesn’t work properly, the toaster is on its last legs, the owner didn’t provide the key code. We had to ask for it at reception who were thankfully still open when we arrived.
Quiet site with lovely walks in the area

United KingdomToaster didn't work although microwave also had built in grill, had to buy bog rolls as two for six people over three days insufficient! Telly in lounge a bit naff. Only tuned in to limited number of channels. No BBC, itv, etc. Wireless network intermittent and on last day TV had no aerial reception either! Not that we watched it much as it was middle of summer so out most of day but probably more annoying if you went say winter time ?!
Quiet location, size of place, beds, facilities.

United KingdomTV did not work on BBC one & two. Far too warm at points, no instructions on heating. No instructions for anything, ie cooker, microwave. Oven timer flashing but couldn't fix & therefore use the cooker without instructions. Double bedroom door couldn't close because of the size of the bed. Blinds in living area broken & ineffective. Would have been an issue if anyone but our dog was sleeping in the living area. The owners free wi - fi would not connect but fortunately the site had wi - fi we could connect to for free.
Easy to find. Nice quiet site. Warm. Comfy double bed. Lots of storage, mirrors in each bedroom. Blind & curtains in double room good blackouts to sleep. Pet friendly. Good woodland walk right next to the lodge. Good parking next to the lodge.

United KingdomThere were a few minor things in the lodge that need repairing but it did not affect our stay at all.
We love Springhouse, this was our 4th visit and second time in Labernum Lodge. The lodge has all the amenities you could need, including a washer/dryer, dishwasher and even lots of games. The location is perfect if you love the great outdoors. We got to see the stars so well due to so little light pollution, which was heaven. It's a lovely quiet and friendly site.

United KingdomThe neighbours opposite with a touring van who complained about our kids playing outside the lodge and the noise my car door made. No negatives about the property or place. Was disappointed there was no milk in the shop and when I asked if there would be some in the morning, they said no..it would be another week. So come very well stocked!
Quiet beautiful site. Perfect for kids. Lodge was clean and spacious. Absolute bonus having a washing machine and a dishwasher ..also amazing having a dog bed even though we brought one. Will definitely book again.

United KingdomWent for a weekend in late January. On arriving there was no heating on. It took a long time for the place to warm through, even with the heating and the electric fire on. It would have been nice to walk into a warm lodge.
The forest walks right on the doorstep were great for the dog. Right behind the lodge and long forest roads deep into the forest.
