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.).

Beautiful location, property well-maintained, outstanding staff & service - nothing was too much trouble, words I rarely use to describe a hospitality experience, but true here every day. We all enjoyed our visits - myself, and the family & friends who joined me at this Storrs base. This is truly a hidden gem, and a rare find.

United KingdomLiterally my only quibble would be that as we were in the downstairs room you can hear noise from the entrance way. It didn’t bother us at night as the bar area and music stops at 10:30 which I think is an acceptable time, but you can hear people coming to look at the lounge area which is right next to the room, so you can hear people by your door. I was hoping for a lie-in in the morning but at 7:30am you can hear them setting up for opening. I thought a doorway before the room door might be a good idea, to create a vestibule.
Loved the quiet location, it is immaculately clean. The decor is beautiful, as are the gardens. The lounge areas are cosy and comfortable, nothing is too much trouble. We loved it and would 100% stay here again. It was so calm and peaceful and it felt like a home from home.

Friendly staff, top-notch food, and lovely grounds made this a highlight of our family trip (2 teens + parents) to the UK. Serene escape from the bustle of Windermere. Make sure to book for dinner then watch sunset over the hills from the terrace!

All the staff were very friendly, Ashley and Jade went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Check-in was quick and the room was well appointed and immaculately clean, with the room being cleaned and beds made wonderfully every day. Breakfast was great, quickly served and with plenty of choice. The location was good with a short 20 minute walk into Bowness helpfully suggested by Ashley. The grounds were beautiful and the view from the breakfast room and our hotel room were incredible. Would stay here again.

GermanyIt was 30 degrees at the time and we had a beautiful room under the roof with a view of the lake. The only downside was that it didn't have air conditioning and was therefore very warm.
It was simply wonderful and we would come back anytime.

DenmarkCould not fault this place. We had the room with the best view, and it had everything from comfortable bed to tea/coffee to bath robes. The staff is very courteous and friendly, and the breakfast was amazing. The property is a beautiful estate - quiet, green and beautiful. Worth a stay.

United StatesMy room was quite warm. The windows were open but with no screens there were some midges (black flies.) The shower tray is dangerously slippery and needs a mat or decals to prevent falls.
Beautiful manor house with lovely garden setting. The included breakfast offered many choices and everything was very well prepared. Dinner was not included in the room price but was available by reservation and was excellent. There were two large living rooms with comfortable seating. On a rainy, cool day there was a fire in the large hearth. Staff was very accommodating and pleasant.
