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 KingdomI booked this trip as a weekend get away with my husband for his birthday & our 6th wedding anniversary celebration. We arrived in the Friday to a warm welcome from staff in Craven Arms pub and had a drink then went up to the hut. It was warm, very clean, a lovely breakfast hamper with tea coffee pastries and porridge pots. The bed was comfy & shower was great! We ate at craven arms on both evenings & the staff were very accommodating and even reserved us a table for the Saturday evening with out us even asking, which was nice after a long walk that day! The food was delicious and a good variety of beverages to choose from. We really enjoyed our stay and will be returning! Thank you

United KingdomBeautiful surroundings the local people where very welcoming , food at the craven arms was very good but limited menu We'd sit outside on evening & all you could hear was the waterfall a few miles away Breathtaking the hut itself was in a great location behind the craven arms Very well decorated clean with underfloor heating , I think only downside was lack of phone signal & you'd have to go outside to connect to the pub WiFi but hey that's what going out to the remote countryside is all about right re connecting with what's actually important just being you no distractions All in all a amazing experience

United KingdomVery comfortable bed , and hut had been brilliantly planned and constructed, so as to give best possible facilities in limited space. Staff in the main building were friendly and helpful and set a relaxed and happy tone for visitors. Very useful walking info in the guest folder enabled us to enjoy the area better than we'd planned ourselves.

United KingdomI would of liked an undercover seated area maybe a slight porch. also to be further apart from the other huts. although this would be quite difficult with the limited space.
the property was just beautifully built and kept. lovely spot with great walks. The food at the craven arms pub was amazing. definitely go have the steak pie if your passing.

We love the location. Appletreewick is a beautiful area. The Craven Arms is a fantastic pub and I adore the shepherd's huts. They're so quirky. This is our 3rd time staying and we'll definitely return again.

United KingdomThe WiFi from the pub was barely useable within the hut. It's a bit cramped, but it would be wouldn't it? Hence a short stay for us only.
Our first stay in a Shepherd's Hut so it was a novel experience. It's good for a short romantic break but it is very small. We are glad we stayed but I think it's a one-off. Located behind an excellent pub that serves good food. In 10 minutes you can be walking along the River Wharfe. A really excellent location for walking.
