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 KingdomThe only fault was the road. It was very busy and many vehicles speeding. Unfortunately, nothing can be done about that
The views are stunning. The property had everything you would need and more. The owner came along to see everything was ok and gave us recommendations on what beach to take the dog to and where was good for fish & chips

United KingdomI have to admit there was nothing we didn't like. Everything you could need for a holiday was provided. The accommodation was beautifully decorated and the sea view from the full window was excellent. It was everything we hoped it would be and more.
On the morning of our arrival the owner sent me an email with all the required information. This included the key safe number for the front door key and information with regards to the storage space underneath the accommodation and where the key to that was located in the property If required, we could store out luggage in there . It is also where the washing machine / tumble dryer and large fridge freezer for extra food storage was situated There is a small fridge with freezer compartment in the accommodation. Considering the accommodation was basically one large room it was cleverly set out with the added bonus of a small shower room / toilet incorporated. The bedroom was set at the back of the property and could be sectioned off by closing the net curtains attached to the walls (so cosy). As we have hectic lives , we wanted to go somewhere where we could do nothing except relax unwind, take in the sea air while watching the wild life and watch the world go by and that is exactly what we were able to do. The property also has a telescope and binoculars for use during your stay. We were able to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine (when it didn't rain)

United KingdomNothing it’s perfect as it is.
Love Pew with a view, Always love returning to this amazing wee fisherman’s cottage. This was our 4th visit & next year’s holiday was booked before we arrived. The scenery, wildlife - seals, dolphins, and at times orcas & basking sharks. Peace and having the sea beside you is just what you need. I love sitting watching the ever changing sea in front of you. The huge picture window , the various seating areas in the garden & in front of the cottage provides choice of perspective. Great for wildlife watching. Getting up early to watch the sunrise out of the sea is a must. Sitting by the fire pit at night watching the stars & shooting stars, and if you’re lucky the Aurora takes your breath away. Susan is an excellent host, so lovely, welcoming and nothing is a bother. I go with my mum & dog. I actually found this wee gem for the dog as she loves the water so much & I wanted a place where I could open the gate and let her run into the sea.

United KingdomTwo wine glasses would have been nice. Bit of traffic noise.
The cottage had pretty much everything we needed and we didn't find it cramped at all. The view is spectacular. I was just happy just to sit and stare out of the window. It's proximity to the road meant that we couldn't open the window to listen to the waves, but when the windows were closed you could hardly hear the road noise. Sue was a super helpful host.

United KingdomIt was cosy with the heating on, but the heater in the bedroom made a sort of metallic clanking noise as it heated up and cooled down. If you wanted to eat in the cottage it would have been on your lap but the kitchen did contain everything needed to cook a full meal and if it was warm enough eating on the deck would be great.
The seafront location is truly spectacular! Even in late November when the sun hit those rocks in the morning, through that massive picture window, it was amazing. It’s petite but very well converted inside and has a generous seating area and a bedroom that embraces the cute factor. I loved the fact that there was a true sense of history. The cottage dates from the 1600s when they were fisherman’s cottages and looking out at the rocks on the sea coast, from which the cottage was built, makes you think! We were there in a real cold snap and it was below zero a lot of the time but there is a decking area with furniture which I think would be fantastic in the summer. Great communication from Sue.

United KingdomThere was a lot of clutter in the kitchen and it made it hard to find room to prepare food. The fridge was way too small and you had to try and carefully position food in there otherwise when you opened the door it all came out. I banged my leg off the bed as the wooden post as you walked in. No access to a beach.
