I arrived after 11pm, was warmly received and taken to my room. Breakfast was very good, as was the service all round.

This is a great place to stay. Friendly staff, fantastic seafood and nice cosy rooms. It’s in a nice little village on South Ronaldsay - which is very pretty and has lots of good walking and interesting wildlife. It’s about a 20 minute drive from Kirkwall across the Churchill barriers. There also seems to be a decent bus service to Kirkwall and Stromness although I didn’t use this. Highly recommended!

Exemplary staff and manager
Beyond expectations in hospitality. We had a tasty meal in the bar with locals filling us in on island lore. The staff was beyond friendly. As a team, they helped rescue my laptop, left on a local bus, by asking a friend to chase the bus down by car…a brilliant rescue.

A real treasure of a find. Host was so welcoming and genuinely helpful. They went above and beyond to accomodate us and our doggy. Really doggy friendly. Gave us ideas, hints and low-downs! The seafood was divine: freshly caught and cooked beautifully. If you get the opportunity, share a seafood platter with another in your party. What an experience! We don't go back to revisit places as a rule but we would definitely come back here.
