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.).

IrelandThe location in the centre of the town makes it a great base for exploring Portumna Castle, and its beautiful grounds, garden, forest park and marina. It's also close to the public beach on Lough Derg. In addition you'll get a warm welcome from owners Dick and Liz, who will sort you with places to see, things to do and local history. I'd strongly recommend hiring a bike directly from Podumna and doing a few loops of the above attractions. The terrain is quite flat, so no excuses!

IrelandNone that I can think of.
We like the accessibility of all amenities and love the owner's hospitality. The pod was cosy and we might come back again.

IrelandFirst and foremost, owners Dick and Liz are what makes this place great. They were helpful with any queries we had, but more importantly, they were constantly engaging with us and other guests in non-intrusive way to make you feel welcome. On top of the owners, the location and facilities are great. While you are located in the centre of Portumna town, when you go through the gate you feel as you've entered a remote forest where you can completely detach from the external world enjoy your holidays.

United StatesThis was a wonderful stop along our trip. Location was great walking trails the castle we even got a craft fair and a festival. The owners Dick and Liz couldn't have been more helpful and friendly and their nephew Jack was always checking that we are okay and if we needed anything. I especially want to thank Jack for the hot water bottle What a great touch Hope to see you again in the future. Slainte' ☘️

IrelandNot much, its a great location.
Glamping right in the middle of Portumna might sound strange but this is a wonderfully secluded location right off the main street. Shops are nearby. Lough Derg swimming centre & the local harbour are only a short cycle away so is the Portumna Bridge & Castle. The pod are very comfortable and the facilities are excellent. Dick Ridge, your host is a lovely man and he couldn't be more helpful. Anything you need or a suggestion for something to do Dick is your man.
