How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewGreat Location with a really relaxing vibe about it. The Hot Tub was sensational.
No real place to dry towels and robes or have extra towels available.

Verified reviewThe hut itself was lovely very cute, great use of space. I really loved the hamper that was there on arrival. The fridge was stocked with fresh milk so we didn’t need to go to the shop when we wanted a cup of tea, they also provided fresh eggs, cereal, chocolate, tea, juice, Starbucks coffee pods, Prosecco and snacks a lot of thought went into this, these little details really made it!
Nothing

Verified reviewSuper beautiful spot! Great parking, hot tub, and bed. Good kitchen facilities.
Very extremely humid inside, with no screens on the windows to keep bugs out. So we had to sleep with the windows closed. Upon waking the whole place was filled with condensation - very humid, some mildew in the bathroom. We really loved it but screens would have improved the whole experience for fresh air while sleeping.

Verified reviewThe hot tub with view to the river is lovely. Gordon and Michael gave us a nice basket of goodies which was a lovely touch. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchenette fully equipped, and the shower was nice and warm. We also went to Loch Lomond for a walk, as it is very close. 100% would go back and recommend to others.

Verified reviewFrom the scenery, to the cozy feeling as soon as we walked into the Hut, to the delightful welcome basket with goodies and a bottle of processo, and the robes with slippers. The hot tub was a life saver after several days of hikes! It's a place someone can honestly stay for a long period of time without feeling like they need to go else where.
Nothing, little quirks that could be fixed up, but nothing too serious. The only thing I noticed is the curtain above the kitchen sink in the Conic Hut needs to be replaced. It looks like there is mold on it when down completely. I think that may help and preserve some possible bad reviews in the future.

Verified reviewThe views where amazing , very quiet, listening to the river at night was very tranquil. Beautiful basket full of goodies and processco was a lovely touch which we thoroughly enjoyed. Hot tub was beautiful very clean and 40°
Pillow case was dirty on the corner. Blinds could do with being replaced as there is mold on them.

While I know there’s not much to be done there were so many bugs in the hut throughout the whole trip which really took away from our experience

Verified reviewThe location is great for getting to Loch Lomond and sitting between Drymen and Balmaha is good. The hot tub is lovely to relax in with the little stream running down the lane. The mattress is comfortable, the finishing touches are nice and the contents of the breakfast hamper are good quality items.
For anyone of above average height it’s very cramped and difficult to move around in the hut. The bed only runs the width of the hut so is also too short for tall people making it difficult to sleep. There are chairs that go with a table but that means it’s not possible to open the bathroom door fully and the size of the bathroom means it’s not possible to sit on the toilet properly either. The shower has also has no pressure. While the breakfast hamper was nice there was no indication if you could get a top up of anything if you were there for more than one night.
Really disappointed with your review Alexandra. The Shephard hut pictures clearly show the size and include the square footage in the description. The bed is also a standard double. You also scored a 5 for cleanliness which is disappointing. We don’t charge extra for the welcome hamper and supply milk, juices all for free. Happy for constructive feedback but this feels unfair.
