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.).

IrelandCan highly recommend The Black Sheep. From the moment we arrived we were treated like old friends. Alec and Jovanka were so welcoming. Location is perfect, just a short and pleasant walk to the village. Fantastic breakfast on the deck. We'll be back. Definitely 10/10.

IrelandThe world needs places like this. Alec would give you the shirt off his back and if he did it'd be a stylish one. The Black Sheep oozes character, homeliness, charm and calm in a most idylic setting. This place did it its own way and made a great stab at it. Stay, it'll live long in your memory.

GermanyAmazing location, very friendly hosts with lots of great tips for places to go visit! We stayed there for 6 days, and did day trips in different directions every day. Very well located in the middle of the most beautiful parts of Ireland, loved it! Bed was super comfortable, and room was clean and provided enough space. Also amazing view from the Veranda while having breakfast, we could even see deers from there while having our delicious breakfast! Hosted with lots of love, we could feel that

United StatesI really annoyed my stay at the black sheep b&b. The hosts are wonderful and they really did their best to make sure I enjoyed my stay. The facilities are very clean and the bed was very comfortable. I felt very safe and they gave me some great recommendations for what to do around the town. The black sheep is only about a 5minute walk from the downtown so you have great access to the pubs and restaurants but you are also very close to the nature reserve which offers beautiful hikes. I would definitely recommend staying here!
