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 KingdomThe cottage was lovely. The bed was super comfy. The shower is hot and powerful. The projector screen was amazing, and the views were beautiful.

United KingdomThe main road, although the stunning scenery and exceptional comfort more than made up for it. It went quiet in the evenings and when inside it didn’t really matter
A beautiful and thoughtfully decorated cottage that’s incredibly comfortable and welcoming. The open-plan kitchen and living area were ideal for socialising — we celebrated our daughter’s 21st birthday here and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The space is fully equipped for self-catering, with a spacious fridge and a double oven and a cosy log burner. The views from both the living room and the sun house are absolutely stunning, overlooking the estuary and a nearby nature reserve. It’s in a fantastic location for exploring Aberdyfi, Aberystwyth, the osprey project, and many other local attractions. There are also lovely dog walks right from the doorstep. The hosts were warm and helpful, with great communication throughout — always quick to respond and happy to answer all my questions. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a stay here.

United KingdomNothing really to fault with the property or the facilities. I couldn’t find any oven gloves which would’ve been helpful although maybe I just didn’t see them! The property is right next to a road which is fairly busy during the day so if you’re taking a pooch that isn’t well trained, make sure they’re kept on a lead when leaving the cottage. I thought the traffic might be distracting at night but the road was very quiet from 8pm onwards.
This property is an absolute gem! Beautifully restored and in a fantastic location overlooking the wetlands with the mountains so picturesque in the background. There are some great walking routes in the local area that we were able to enjoy despite miserable weather. It was lovely to have the log fire and projector screen in the evenings for a cozy movie night. The external cabin is a lovely spot for a morning coffee where you can really enjoy the views. It’s the ideal property for family and group stays with great communal areas and spacious bedrooms. Will definitely be rebooking for the summer!

United KingdomThe only thing we didn't like was the noise of the traffic in the morning. We were up early because we had a little toddler with us so it wasn't too bad.
The view was stunning and the accommodation had everything you could want. We really liked the Cinema Projector and the log burner.

United KingdomNothing at all - a lot of thought and attention has gone into this cottage.
Exceptional from booking to check-out! The hosts are quick to respond to any queries prior to arrival and the information pack and arrival info prior to arrival is excellent. The cottage is very nicely decorated, perfect for a couple or for up to 6 guests. We loved the home cinema system, log burner, modern kitchen with coffee machine and the hosts even left a little welcome hamper for us - so thoughtful. Even staying during a storm, the views were spectacular and was a great place for us to stay for a conference in nearby C.A.T, with the kids - Corris is nearby and we stop at springtime every year to see the Ospreys at the nearby wildlife centre. We'd love to return in the spring or summer and take advantage of the beautiful walks nearby - this cottage is a great base, cosy and just perfect!

We received all the information regarding our stay from owner the day before our arrival ( very well done for the info pack) They left us a lovely welcome hamper with wine and cakes😋. We can't wait to return.

United KingdomInternal kitchen cabinets were not clean. Bins in kitchen were very smelly, limited bin liners. Oven doors were full of greasy marks, off putting and unclean. Kitchen island work surfaces not clean. Wine cooler not working. Frying pans unclean and greasy. TV big screen projector over heats and causes crackling on screen. Sonos speaker in living room not working. Patio door windows were very unclean, greasy and dirty. Bathroom linens were dirty, lucky we brought our own. Shower doors unclean. Under Toilet seat was unclean. Master bedroom mattress topper was grubby. Parking with a very narrow payment walk to holiday home at night with dogs, children and luggage isn't the easiest access. Inside of summer house was very dirty and no lighting. Was charged additional £20 dog fee after paying in full, despite one of the hosts informing us that there is no dog fee to pay, to later be told by other host there is additional fee charges for our two tiny dogs. Overall we were quiet disappointed with our stay. Its a lovely property but we felt its massively being neglected and needs a little bit of love...or maybe better domestic staff.
Location and view from master bedroom is probably best feature of this holiday home.
