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 KingdomInternet wouldn't connect. We didn't contact the hosts about this as we were out most of the time and used mobile data instead. The shower might be an issue for tall.people due to being under the roof slope. No hanging space in the main space which would be an issue for a longer stay but there is a chest of drawers. If you have small children or a dog, the steps to the grassy area at the end of the garden are dicey, especially when wet.
The location over looking the beach and across the bay was phenomenal. The garden at the top end also allowed for an amazing view. The house itself has been nicely decorated with a smart kitchen and bathroom. The bed was super comfortable too! It is all really clean and beautiful and well looked after.

Everything you need is there - from the kitchen utensils to washing/dishwasher tablets, even a little radio in the kitchen was such a nice touch and made our morning while cooking breakfast. Communication was great and the view - amazing.

United KingdomBeautiful little cottage, in a fantastic location right by the sea. We had a lovely stay. The views are exceptional, and all the fixtures and fittings are very high quality, with some lovely touches such as welcome basket and use of beach towels. Lovely wood burner and super comfy beds. Misunderstanding about key collection - the email from the owners said they meet guests on arrival, but they allowed us an earlier check-in (which was brilliant) and weren't there to meet us. All was sorted quickly, but probably best to ask for the key safe code just in case. We would happily book this property again.

United KingdomThe location was perfect for our family to have some quite relaxing time together. Rock cottage had everything available to meet our needs for a weeks away,the property is beautifully decorated, very clean and makes for a very comfortable and cosy stay. Being on the sea front means direct access to the beach and the most amazing views. The spar is just up the road and the View does a very good breakfast at a reasonable price.

United KingdomThese are minor matters but worth mentioning perhaps… ? The master bedroom was a little too cold. I stayed in October and I don’t like warm bedrooms in least but this room was more than on the chilly side for me - especially on windy days. Both/2x front doors were very hard to lock. The outer door especially: it could take 5-6mins to push the door handle up enough to allow the key to turn in the lock. The key safe was stuck with salt air and getting the key out on arrival was Vv difficult. I was on verge of getting the owners out to help me get in!
The property’s sea views were out of this world: both out of the master bedroom & lounge windows. And the welcome package was sustainably sourced and delicious! The carpets were also deep and plush and overall, the cottage offered a very comfy bed, a new kitchen, powerful shower, loads of space & tasteful decor. Altogether rockpool cottage is a safe place for solo travellers to explore the surrounding area & get back to feeling yourself. If you’re looking for socialising this isn’t the one for you
