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 reviewThe property was spacious for the 3 of us. Nice surroundings and had everything we needed. The clubhouse was great for the toddler in the evening.
Balcony/terrace was a great space but could do with a bit of a touch up

Verified reviewLovely, cute lodge. Nice and clean. Plenty of kitchen utensils available to use. There is a hairdryer, iron and board etc. Everything you could need. The lodge is at the end of the row which was quite private and next to a babbling brook! Quite idyllic.
The small bedroom with 2 single beds is very small. We managed fine though, so not really something to dislike. The swimming pool wasn’t opened very often and seemed a bit odd when the lifeguard was on duty. It would be nice to have swimming available more regularly rather than just 2 half hours a day.

Verified reviewThese people are scammers! They ask for £100 deposit (privately) and they do everything in their power to not return it! I’ve seen the same reviews on trip advisor!
When we left I received a text with a picture of an orange blob on the master duvet, I apologised even tho I thought, that’s weird I don’t have any orange colours etc I’m going to be graphic now but I did say oh I did get my monthly thing while I was there but I was assured it wasn’t blood! Anyway, 3 weeks later, these poor cleaners are still trying their best to get this orange stain out 😂😂 (think they thought I’d forget about my £100 deposit) I was told these poor people have been working tirelessly to get this stain out!! ANYWAY long story short I received £20.50 back from my deposit 😱😱 jeeeeez they must’ve shopped in Harrods for a new one! By the way, I slept in the sofa 2 nights out 4 because there was a wasps nest and they were entering through the vent in my en-suite! I didn’t realise it was a nest at first but I contacted them as soon as I did! Now they are saying it’s my fault I slept in the sofa because I didn’t tell them 🤦🏼♀️ AVOID AVOID AVOID! I will be reporting them to the park too because I am not the only victim here!

Verified reviewThe location-setback a bit from the road and with a small beck running alongside. The space in the living area The views from the windows The extremely comfortable sofa The table and chairs outside The manager of the property was responsive and helpful Showers were nice and hot and the water pressure was good The parking-being able to park just outside the chalet The staff on the site-really helpful and friendly-they opened the shop for us one evening when we had run out of peanut butter for our dachshund. Short distance to walk to the Lake
The toaster-too small but a trivial thing The bathrooms were a little bit small The bed was too hard for me-but that's a preference thing-I have Osteo-arthritis at numerous points in my spine and I couldn't sleep in the bed-I ended up sleeping on the sofa and slept really well. I think beds are a preference thing anyway-some people like hard beds and some like soft.

Verified reviewThe lodge was immaculately clean, beautiful bed linen and very comfortable beds. We liked that the second bedroom had two full sized single beds. The lodge was modern and beautifully decorated, very cosy and relaxing. It was very well equipped, especially the kitchen all matching crockery and cutlery and utensils. There was parking right next to the lodge for 2 cars. The location on the park was excellent, a 2 min walk to the marina in one direction and 2 min walk to reception and the pool in the other. So quick and easy for driving on and off the park. The beck flows right past the lodge, lots of ducks pottering around. We also saw squirrels, rabbits and deer wandering around on the park. The team provided excellent communication, nothing was too much trouble and they responded very quickly. Highly recommend this lodge, we can't wait to return.

Verified reviewIt was a lovely setting and was very nice inside
When we arrived the property felt cold and whilst there was central heating the fire didn’t work so we couldn’t warm up quickly. We also weren’t told that we needed a pass to use the facilities until we asked and we only managed to swim once during our stay as others had pre booked.

Verified reviewNice location, lovely lodge,
Maybe the owner could speak to the site reference having a fence but up between the lodges to stop people taking short cuts between the lodges or a sign up saying no access, as holidaymakers kept cutting through the gap between the lodges. That's only a personal thing.

Verified reviewLoved how cosy and spacious it was and the beds were also very comfortable.
The check in time and check out times .. usual times are check in at 3pm and check out T 11am. We could pay additionally £25 per person? But I think this is unfair.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review. We are glad you had a fanatic stay at Tiggywinkle Beck. Check in/ check out times are clearly advertised on Booking.com and confirmed as soon as we receive your booking. If you did want to check in early, or check out later than our normal times, our housekeeping team do offer this service. This is just a one off fee of £25, it is NOT per person.
