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.).

United KingdomThe only thing I would like to improve would be Gluten Free bread- I realise that you may not have a celiac every day, but there are better gf breads available. You can also get decent GF pastries.
Amazing setting. Although we visited in March, there was evidence of a well-kept garden with essential pruning and cutting back in progress. The evening menu was interesting and all effort taken to accommodate my need for GF. The food was exceptional and at £30 for 2 courses great value. Full Scottish breakfast was huge - the scrambled eggs and smoked salmon tasty. Our room was warm and clean. The bed large and very comfortable. Our bathroom was across from the room, and there was a privacy screen to go across the hallway .The bath was so deep and the water hot. We hope to visit again next time we are on route north.

United KingdomThere was nothing we didn't like.
On arrival, which was much later than anticipated, we were very warmly welcomed. we were asked if we would like an evening meal but after looking at the menu we asked if there could be some amendments made due to dietry requirements. The chef came out to talk to us and he couldn't have been more helpful with the result that we had an absolutely excellent meal. All the meals for the rest of the stay were of an equally high standard. A great deal of work has been carried out at this magnificent hotel such that it is a beautiful, pleasant and relaxed place to stay. The bedroom we had was very spacious and beautiful with a similarly large and comfortable bed. Likewise the rest of the hotel had large rooms with many interesting features. We certainly couldn't fault the staff as they were extremely helpful and nothing was too much bother for them. The grounds that the hotel sits in were lovely and we are sure that in the summer they would be very colourful. Both the hotel and the grounds are very relaxing and you are able to go for quite long and pleasant walks in them.

United KingdomArriving in the dark... Would have been much nicer to arrive in daylight to appreciate the full splendour of the mansion house as you drive up the long approach to it.
The beautiful old mansion house, decorated really well. Was like stepping back in time. Although it's huge the lounge with coal fire was cosy as was the room.
