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 KingdomThere is no phone signal at the pod, although a 5 minute drive towards the town and it picks up quickly.
The pod was perfectly located for a tranquil getaway and felt very private and secluded with beautiful views over the hills and farmland. It’s super cosy, well kept and clean. Menna and Eifion are wonderful hosts and even took time out of their working day to show us around their farm which was greatly appreciated. Everything we needed for a short stay was in the pod including cooking supplies and utensils and even gowns for the hot tub which was a lovely touch.

The pod was brilliant. The location is wonderful, no nearby neighbours that could be seen or heard. The pod itself was very clean and spacious. The hot tub was fabulous, no complaints about it whatsoever. Very easy to use and easy to keep alit.

United KingdomThe location was great. It was secluded in a field on a farm. We had no signal whilst there which was really nice to be able to switch off. (We did download a film or two before arriving). The views from the room and hot tub were brilliant.

United KingdomWe arrived very late, after it got dark and we couldn't see the pod house. It would be wonderful if it were lit up to be seen by those who arrive after sunset.
Stunning location. Quite place, cosy little pod house with beautiful views. If you want to use the hot tub, take into consideration that it takes around 4 hours until the water is ready. it was too late before it was ready, and being tired, we gave up on using it.

United KingdomI had an amazing stay at this beautiful accommodation. The outdoor hot tub was a highlight—so relaxing under the stars. The terrace offered stunning views, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or watching the sunset. Inside, everything was cozy, modern, and well-equipped. It was the perfect escape, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to unwind in a peaceful, picturesque setting.

United KingdomLoved it. Have previously stayed in a shepherds hut which was a little too cramped. This is the next size up and it makes a big difference. Take your cat for swinging! If the owner reads this, I sent you a message regarding the wine glass, I assume you haven’t got a notification for it. Please let us know how much we owe you

We booked to stay in the pod for our 1st wedding anniversary and it didn’t disappoint. We wanted a quiet private place and that is exactly what we got! The host had the hot tub ready when we arrived. It’s exactly what I expected, in the middle of nowhere would definitely stay again!
