We had the highly recommended Seafood Platter for 2 which was excellent. Can’t comment on anything else on the menu but their main fare is great. Service ok with one lady looking after everyone. Book ahead as it was full on a Thursday night. It is a 30 minute drive from Kirkwall on South Ronaldson so you definitely need a car.

On our first day in Orkney we drove across the islands to the Murray Arms for a great fish lunch - as per the marketing. My friends chowder and scallops were good, but my Sea Bass was dry and overcooked. Loving Sea Bass and coming all the way from Australia to enjoy the best Orkney had to offer, I was really disappointed. Was this fish even fresh not frozen? Is Sea bass even caught around Orkney. Maybe not. The restaurant boasts it gets its fish straight from their own boats, so I was expecting the best. Sadly disappointed.

A pleasant restaurant and bar with some outside setting A predominantly fish restaurant on the Sunday when we went I would say the food is high end pub grub , but with higher than average prices The only fault was my roast vegetables where a bit under done ,roast vegetables should have some caramisation. A good meal and would go again.

Stopped in for lunch after visiting Hoxa tapestry as it was recommended to us. The scallops were amazing! The scallop and seafood chowder looked delicious, and my friend said it was. Great service and a really lovely restaurant area. It's definitely worth a visit, especially when it's a bit cold and wet outside!!

Beautiful, modern rooms. Ours had a lot of natural light from skylights but by night we had blackout blinds in the bedroom. The bed was comfortable and the room also had a digital TV, Wi-Fi and tea and coffee making facilities. Breakfast was good and the bar and restaurant were excellent, especially if you love fresh seafood.

This renovated historic building has been beautifully updated and presents a first class attention to detail throughout. The staff are also helpful and food delicious. A perfect stopover for any traveller. The area is lovely and their other restaurant “The Gather” also worth visiting.

Great hotel. This was our first visit to the hotel and I'm sure it won't be our last. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was just amazing. We stayed for 2 nights and loved it, we'd definitely recommend a stay here if you're down in South Ronaldsay.
