Cafeteria L'Escut - Avda. Les Voltes, 11, La Bisbal d'Emporda

This cafe is our favourite under the arches. They have regular exhibitions from local artists as well as the fanciest and nicest toilets we've ever seen! Oh, and good coffee, of course.

The Orkney Islands - website

One of our favourite rally spots where the Orkney Bike Club holds their infamous Ravin' Mad Rally. Full of history and the friendliest people in the United Kingdom, this is a wonderful place for a holiday or long weekend. Find out more about Orkney on the tourism website..

The Celtic Motorbike Company - website

We went to Dublin for a long weekend last year and discovered this great bike shop. They also told us where one of the best biker bars in Dublin is, the Old Barn. So if you fancy it, stop in and maybe they'll tell you, too.

El Ginebro - Ctra. de Vilopriu a Garrigoles, s/n, Vilopriu

A lovely little restaurant not far from us. The food is excellent, the service very friendly and the surroundings are absolutely amazing! It's just been refurbished, so if you're in the area, check it out.

Els 4 Vents - Avinguda de la Generalitat, 23 (al costat de La benzinera), Sant Jordi Desvalls

Another local restaurant that is superb. Doubles us as a bar that doesn't appear to close on Saturday nights. If you make it down here, say hello to Monica who runs it with her husband who's the chef. Wonderful place.

Browns Farm Bed & Breakfast - Browns Farm, Marlborough, Wiltshire - 01672 515129

Last time we were back in the UK we stayed here one night. Very friendly place with lovely big rooms overlooking fields. The breakfast was great and the price was very very reasonable, which makes a change from many UK B&Bs,
