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 KingdomThere wasn’t anything to dislike.
Friendly welcome. Facilities and accommodation perfect for our stay. Great food in the restaurant. Great location for gravel biking around Kielder and the Scottish Borders. Nice feel about the place. Would 100% return 😁

United KingdomI would have liked wider towels and mugs rather than coffee cups! It could be a little dark in the early evening, one of the bulbs was out in the living area so my cross stitch was a bit tricky.
It was clean and spacious. Very close to Kielder and easy to get to. No road noise at all which I appreciated! Well signposted from the road. It was cosy. Staff were great, even gave me some milk when I forgot mine! I felt very safe there.

United KingdomSome of the parts of the room look a bit worn (carpet, furniture), but not really a problem.
Very pretty place, very welcoming (we loved the pond and all the farm animals roaming around!). Great facilities and lovely staff. They were very accommodating as we were visiting for a wedding and were going to come back late: they arranged access so that we could get into our room late. The area is beautiful and definitely worth a trip. We'll be back. The room was very large and comfortable.

United KingdomMy little girl has a range of allergies and the owner was fantastic with explaining the menu and suggesting alternatives. For a small place in rural Northumberland, they catered very well for allergies and dietary requirements. Some of the bigger chains could learn a thing or two from Boe Rigg. Location was stunning and my children loved the chickens and ducks roaming around. Room was clean and comfortable.

United KingdomTo keep the room cool we needed to leave a window open but then the Cockerel woke us up at 4.30am! I know that a rural location brings these natural noises. But a fan in the room would have helped keep it a bit cooler on warm days/nights. Some coffee and uht milk would have been nice in the room
Lovely location with friendly staff and nice home cooked food. Great selection of whisky!! Lovely pond on site with ducks etc
