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 KingdomNothing at all, 10/10 - except having to leave!
Absolutely amazing place to stay. Can't fault it at all and all the little touches and supplies are lovely. The pod has everything you would need, its a great size with parking next to it. Very private feeling. Loved sitting on the decking just listening to/watching the animals just outside. The host met us to let us in, very friendly and recommended a very nice cafe/bakery!

The best pod we have stayed in. It has everything needed to prepare any food you might want. Andrea is an excellent host with recommendations for anything that you might want to do and where to go whilst you are there. The hot tub and firepit are an absolute bonus and make the experience of staying here even better. Can't recommend this place enough.

United KingdomThere is only one mirror (in the bathroom). It would have been great to have one closer to one of the outlets for blowdrying, etc, but we made due just fine and this is truly the only thing we were missing :-)
The glamping pod was spacious and very cozily decorated. Everything was tidy and clean. What made this pod special were the various little touches left by our wonderful hostess, Andrea. From personally guiding the way to the glamping pod (Google Maps got confused) to the coffee, tea, hot chocolate, delicious jam and many more things provided, we could not have asked for more. Unfortunately, we could only stay for one night, as we had quite a long ways to go still, on our trip around the NC500, but whenever we're back in and around Halkirk we will absolutely be back!

United KingdomNothing at all! If I have to find something very minor it would be great to have a mirror in the bedroom with a socket nearby for hair drying. But that is total nit picking.
Everything. We have done a touring holiday in Scotland mixing up our accommodation between hotels and glamping pods. This is the best of all the pids by MILES and better than the hotels too. If we could have had this pod in all our locations our holiday would have been completely perfect. The pod has everything you need and MORE. It's super comfortable with a proper king size bed and extremely well equipped kitchen. Even little things like a bottle of ketchup, oil, salt and pepper so that you can cook properly. Nothing was too much trouble. The hot tub is incredible. It's just all out luxury in a pod. And best of all the coo's are your neighbors! We came away after 2 nights feeling totally recharged. Can't praise it enough.
