Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomVery welcoming and helpful staff, typical small village pub with basic rooms which were clean and tidy. Great service at the bar and at breakfast. Breakfast food was absolutely fantastic, the best I've had in a hotel/pub for years !!!

United KingdomJust a personal preference, coffee at breakfast was rather too weak.
Seemingly newly refurbished pub and rooms, clean and a comfortable bed, with a Tassimo coffee machine in the room which is always welcome. Superb breakfast, good value and clearly cooked to order. Service excellent throughout, from welcome and ease of check-in and at breakfast.

United KingdomI didn’t dislike anything about the property. I was only cautious with my son because of the inn’s nearness to the major road.
It’s a cute inn with very friendly and warm staffs. The room and beds were very comfortable and we loved our breakfast.

United KingdomThe wait for food was really slow on all 3 occasions we ate. We understand that Saturday was slow service as it was really busy - pretty much a full house but Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning wasn't busy in the restaurant but we still had to wait 25-30 mins for our food. This then made resulted in us being late for work on Sunday morning. The room we stayed in as right by the main road going through the village and due to it being a warm night with no aircon, it did mean we had to keep the window ajar which meant we could hear cars going past all night/morning. I'm a light sleeper, so I struggled getting to sleep for most of the night.
The location was lovely - set in a beautiful rural village. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The food was absolutely amazing!! So delicious! Beds were super comfy and our room had a smart tv so we could watch some netflix after a long day at work. Would recommend!

United StatesNot a thing.
Feels like home. Always welcoming. Loved the fresh made pizza - served Friday & Saturday evenings. Lovely full English breakfast in the morning - as well as other selections made to order. Able to spend time at the pub from 12 noon to 12 midnight. Able to order in and they will allow you plates & utensils. Looking forward to planning a return trip. Hannah and her colleagues and The Unicorn Inn will be missed.

United StatesAbsolutely nothing.
So welcoming & comfortable. Feels like coming home. Locals so inclusive. Gave us a great recommendation for a top local curry shop. When we discovered we couldn’t get it via Just Eats or Uber Eats, they gave us a ride to do take away. Love the room set up - deluxe family room shaped in an L - one end double and one end two twins. Exceptionally arranged for family.

Love the deluxe family room. Love that we can stay with kids - one double room and two single beds. Love that the double is on one side of an L and the two twins are on the other side of an L. Love there is a restaurant on premises. Love the breakfast with Hannah. Love that the bus stops right in front of the Inn.

Comfortable. Neat. Clean. Hospitable. Close to The Repton School. Everyone was delightful. We arrived after the restaurant part of the pub at the Inn closed. The staff got us settled, and taught us the local take out app. The locals were so open and friendly. Hannah, proprietor, serves a fantastic full English breakfast and is so welcoming and kind.

United KingdomIf you want an invoice for your stay don’t bother with the Unicorn. Promised an email invoice when I was there but never arrived. Phoned up and told one would be emailed and confirmed email address. Never arrived. 3 days later phoned again, got same reply “we will email it” Still never arrived. Restaurant not open Monday & Tuesday.
Breakfast was nice enough. I only had egg on toast but full breakfast was available.
