Paradise Found in the UK | Motorcycle Road Trip Around the Isle of Wight | Part 2

- Part two of our road trip by motorcycle around the Isle of Wight.
We started the day at one of the most beautiful breakfast spots we’ve ever been to- the Bay Cafe at Totland Bay.
From there, we explored the middle of the Island, took a look around the grounds of Appuldurcombe House and had a cream tea in Shanklin.
You’re never more than 45 minutes from everywhere on the IOW, so getting around is incredibly easy. The ferry is also seamless- no need to turn up more than 30 minutes before departure as there’s no paperwork and it’s so small.

Dude you were born to do this, the passion, the voice, the style the quality. Just amazing. Also big praise for monica for the beautiful camera work. 👍
That means a lot, thank you! And I've shown this to Monika too- appreciate it!🙂
The voice, I agree. VERY inspiring
@@VVoltz Totally concur, you both are brilliant, and refreshing to see someone younger than me and my wife on a bike, LOL
Totally agree, he's a natural, easy to watch and motivating to others.
Appuldurcombe is my favourite place in Spring when the woodland floor is covered in Bluebells.
Whilst watching this video I completely forgot how beautiful our island is. Makes me sad how I don't adventure around and look at all the beautiful things we have here
I too live here and jumped on the back of his bike for a two day tour!!!
Another cracking vid dude 🤘🏻
I live in Australia, makes me laugh when you go to a pub there that is a few hundred years older than my country has been colonised 🤣
From someone who lives on the island it is very interesting to see your reactions to it all ! 😊
Do you know Steephill cove?
Yeah it is isn't it I've been here for 5 and 6 months now I'm from Essex me brother his son first words was it like going back in time have we got WiFi here said yes and ghosts to
Yay! I love watching any videos of the beautiful Island that i am blessed to call home 😊
Moved to the Island from London when my children were very little. Best thing i ever did!
What a lovely way to see the island, riding around on a sunny day.
This video definitely did it justice. Thank you. ❤
Just rewatching whole of your series to the present. You both should have a tv show. You have the loveliest of lives
Dobbs knocking it out the park with the content... A must watch.
Top stuff Dobbs👍😁
so true
It's videos like this that make me really appreciate the tiny Isle I was bought up on! Next time, you need to explore Osbourne House... absolutely stunning grounds that was quite literally built for a queen :)
I'll definitely revisit and see Osborne House next time!🙂
tiny compared to what ?lol
@@ryanscarrmusic2329 I mean for 1, "tiny Isle" is just a Island saying and 2, it's only 16 miles from east to west and 14 miles from north to south... It's not exactly a massive isle...
@@bobbicrews4389 23 miles i believe
Freddie, surprised you didn’t get to visit The Needles lighthouse at alum bay which was only a mile or so from Totland where you stayed. The chairlift down to the beach is pretty unique along with the coloured sands on the cliffs. I now live in Weymouth, Dorset and the views from Abbotsbury hill and Portland heights are magnificent on a clear day. I strongly recommend you take visit if you’ve not been before.
i have so enjoyed these videos of the island,Ive lived here all my life and sometimes i forget how truly beautiful it is here,absolutely fantastic videos
Thanks Dawn!
I've lived here for 20+ years but just thrilled to jump on this bike and view it with Freddie and Monica. What a fabulous piece of marketing for our island.
Lovely to see someone enjoying and promoting our island. Reaffirms how lucky we are to live here!
absolutely
Appreciate all your efforts for highlighting the beautiful thatched roof house cottages. Absolutely beautiful. Beautiful island with beautiful people.
Thanks for the memories Freddie. I finally got to IOW Part 2 in January 2024! From the comments, it appears you successfully managed to pique the interest of several residents and previous visitors - Including myself. Went for family holidays in the late 1950s when I was a rambunctious 8-10 year old lad. Didn't really appreciate the lovely IOW back then but now I sure do! Cheers from Alabama
Another good one. As a kid, I travelled all over Cornwall and there are some truly fantastic places in those parts.
Thanks.
WAs on Hayle beach a few weeks ago with fantastic weather - practically Caribbean!
@@arryc3947 nice!
Awww i love this video. Fell across the 2 part iow clips and thoroughly enjoyed. Me and my family, along with all of my husbands family live here on the isle of wight and u captured some truelly beautiful gems of our island. When u return be sure to visit Shanklin chine on a sunny day and then re-visit at night to see it all lit up in multicolour. Explore devils chimney and steephill cove, along with (a must on a hot day for that tropical feel) Priory bay. So glad u fell in love with our beautiful island on ur visit and look forward to seeing an update of any returns you make in the future! Happy travels!
Thanks so much Debiella, I've saved all of these tips!🙂
Keep up the good work you two!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Just stumbled upon your vids and I'm sold! Never been to the Isle of Wight (despite 4 years at Portsmouth Uni) but looks a great place as my first touring spot on the bike.
we would love to welcome you - Freddie and Monica have done a fantastic marketing job for our beautiful island.
Very professional ! You two make a great team! Looking forward to more! Couple of pointers for your next adventure's on the Island, The Needles, The Hut, Colwell Bay, Yarmouth village, Cowes, Osbourn House, Carisbrook Castle, Newport town center, Bembridge, Sandown, & Shanklin. Then I can give you another list. Great stuff! Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much Steven,
All saved!🙂
He did show Shanklin Old Village though. fantastic Island. The Island of Dreams.
Well, there it is. UC, United Croatia. I read "Blue Balls" on that shop sign there... Beautiful landscape and a soothing video! Keep safe, stay frosty.
Thanks for sharing your great vlogs.👍
Thanks for the entertainment!!! Another great one ☝️
Watched this more than once… excellent in every way 👌 beautiful
Excellent vid Mr. Dobbs, so relaxing to watch. Also most impressed with the riding gear. Cheers.
Hi Freddie
I've really enjoyed your videos about the I of W. I used to live and work here and it brought back some fantastic memories for me. Thank you.
Keep well. Bye Stuart 🙂
Thanks Stuart, really glad you enjoyed it!
Outstanding 2. Thanks. I do agree 1000% on the Jeep
About 20 years ago i used to go over to the isle of Wight 2 or 3 times a week with work, unfortunately i was in a 44 ton truck but I really enjoyed those trips, it's a stunning place. Oh and i have also been over on a motorcycle as well, i spent a week camping .
Another good video Freddie, glad you enjoyed the little island, looking forward to the next one, got to say that jacket is super cool
Hi Freddie, another great vid . Both well done and the isle of white is amazing place to visit and stay and good to see you and Monica enjoying the tour and your time there
I’m hooked on these two 👍 amazing travels,the foodies and moto roads
Another good video nice follow up to part 1.
Well now I have to check this place out! Just introducing me to a lot of interesting places, Freddie! 🤣
Gorgeous vlog. A great way to spend my commute home from work!
We went there for the first time a couple of years ago, we also loved it. Watching this makes me want to go back again on my Triumph. Great video. Keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻
Very watchable as always.
From across the pond, never knew much about the Isle of Wight. Beautiful! Great videos of your tour there. Hope you get back there.
I've just bump into this lovely channel, thank you CZcams algorithm :)) liked what you do xx
Love your content, you really remind me of Robert Webb
I like this- I'm a big Peep Show fan!😆
A bit, but better looking than Robert..lol
I agree with the Hvar comment! Minus the scaffolding fence 🤣.
Excellent video's. Makes me want to go there right now 🙌
Hey mate I like your positive attitude. True wisdom is seeing the magic in front of you. Enjoy.
Loved this video when I watched it last year. Next weekend I’ll be doing an Isle of Wight road trip myself for 3 days! 👍🏴
Yep very entertaining and informative!
Loved the way the Wood Pigeon flew onto the signpost for you!
Even nature lends Freddie a hand
Brilliant Freddie! 🙂
Fantastic ! Just enjoying your videos.
Base, middle & top knuckles 🙂
What a fabulous vlog ! I’m a frequent visitor to the Island and it was so good to see you both enjoying some of what the Island offers . I hope you get to go back and see the rest ! Thanks for the vlog !
Actually been talking about visiting the island via motorbike, so this was very helpful. Thanks.
Loved the video.....
Stunning video. Really enjoying your content. Great work 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks very much, delighted you enjoyed it!🙂
Thanks Freddie & Monica. Great work and nice music choice .It’s very nice to combine the love of motorcycles and wonderful destinations. Regards from Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks for showing some love for our island. We love it here too
what a great job of marketing our beautiful island.
Great trip. Great film editing. Plus, interesting to hear about the gear you wear. Thnx.
Freddie, your enthusiasm is infectious! Super content......Thank you.
Thanks Andrew!
You'll have to come back and see Osborne House, Carisbrooke Castle and The Needles! 🔙
Thank you for showing the IOW in this way. So much better than the programme that's just been on the tv.
Really enjoyed part 2. That place looks amazing, i love all the history. I will be planning a trip in the future to the UK, then we must go rock it bro!
100%!🙂🤘
Your voice+Monica's recording style = purrfect 👌
Thank you for nice Trip 🙂
What a fantastic place all you need is the magic ingredient a bit of ☀️ sunshine and it’s like being on the med . Real stunning views and every bit as good great 👍 blog guy’s look forward to the next one . : )
Thanks Malcolm, so so try re the sun- it transforms the place!🖤
Another fantastic video!! Like I said previously my dad used to live in Ventnor and he used to take us all over the island when we used to visit him, he is in a care home now with dementia, so it's lovely to see parts of the island we visited together. Thanks Freddie 😀
Really glad to bring back some memories Mike- it's a very special place!😀
Great two part tour of the IOW. Massive credit to your partners use of the camera.
Just discovered your channel fantastic isle of wight fabulous vidios stay happy and safe
Thanks for these two videos Freddie, I had no idea the isle of white was such a lovely place...I thought it was just a place people go to when they retire
I found you recently on here, really enjoying your content. Thank you :)
I’ve never been before, I never realised how beautiful the island is, I only live an hour from Portsmouth, so it’s definitely on my to do list, time to load up my bike !
Great video, thanks for uploading 👍🏼
make sure you do a vlog too when you come over. Our marketing department doesn't believe in you tube!!!
This is the most detailed Isle of wight vlog.
Loved this mini series Freddie and Monica, you need to promise yourselves to one day return to the island to watch the start of the Fastnet sailing race which is run every two years, one of the most spectacular events you'll witness, it starts at the end of Cowes week , the week long sailing festival, even if you don't sail the spectacle of all the sailing boats from small to huge is a sight to behold! Loving the channel, obviously!
Good work Freddie! 👍
I have booked this trip for end of April BH weekend, for our Birthday celebrations! After watching both your video's I just cannot wait! Freddie you are just fantastic at this, very informative and the epitome of cool and a true Petrol Head! I have been a biker all my life, the wife however has not! But we came to a compromise and are doing this trip on two modern Vespa's! I have written down places you have shown to be of interest, Totland Bay Sunset is a must do! We are stating in the beautiful Town of Shanklin and I just hope the weather is kind to us! Keep up the brilliant work
What a lovely place and I really like the style of this video. Nice and chilled with some great views and I like the authenticity of it. Will be following from now on 🤘🏻
Thank you for the support Chris!🙂
myself and my wife did a similar tour around the IOW a couple of years ago, couldn't have wished for better weather and such wonderful views, thinking of going again
Loving your videos Freddie /Monica 😁
Well done guys fantastic video,you have made me want to go there.What a beautiful island well done to Monica too.
Thanks very much David!🙂
do come and visit soon.
Absolutely agree with you about the Isle of Wight, went there last year on a motorbike. I would highly recommend the Isle of Man. Great roads, full of myths and legends, and great food.
Thanks Anthony, IOM now definitely on my list!🙂
Well done Freddie and Monica for promoting the isle of wight, you did a great job, in-fact you should be running the tourist board here. Very professional guys.
Thanks Mike!🙂
Very nice👍🏾
Stumbled across your video whilst flicking through youtube!!
You and Monika absolutely fantastic, I love the enthusiasm and the video style!!
You now have an extra subscriber!!
Now going to kill a few yours bing watching your channel....
Thanks so much Darren, really appreciate it!🙂
You and Monika did a great job of promoting the island over those two days Freddie. Congrats on finding some hidden gems, but don't forget Steephill Cove when you come back. By the way, Appuldurcombe House is pronounced apple-dur-combe. It is the islands 'Ightham' or 'Trottiscliffe'! 😊
I was brought up on the island you certainly did it justice, if you want islands and scenery in the uk you can’t beat the Scottish west coast
Really enjoyed this little series. I should really get over to the island. I only live 20 mins from the ferry. Not been since I was 11 years old.
Brilliant, we almost have the same gear, love Rev’It, also since it is Dutch! Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Fantastic, it's great to have some Dutch gear- fantastic quality!🙂
Really enjoying this, with a very modern hipster take on motorcycling.
I also love the very (good) bad habit of constantly checking your indicators are cancelled !
I can't help myself with the indicators!🤣🤣
Glad you enjoyed the video Murray!🙂
Another Island dweller here. Nice to hear your impressions. I’m a biker too and have just got back from a brilliant trip to mid Wales for a week. To all fellow bikers, I can’t recommend highly enough going to explore that region. What fantastic roads and scenery. Devil’s Bridge and the ‘Two Hoots’ cafe are a great place to experience (loved by bikers)
Just saved this, thanks Rob!!
Another excellent video. Ride safe always (biker for 50 years).
Thanks very much!🙂
Thanks to you 2 we are off to the Isle of Wight 11/07/2021 and will try The Piano Cheers
Enjoy Richard!🙂
Isle of Man, Lake District, Wales, and more London would be my destination wish list 🙂
enjoyed the video as always & see you next time
~ An American of British heritage who has never seen the island in person
That's a great list!!🙂
Been over 4 times to the isle if wight so many beautiful places my personal favorites are st Catherine's oratory steephill cove Tennyson monument culver down stunning views of the whole island
Fantastic thanks again for part two of your trip to our beautiful island. Would love to link with you sometime
I like the sound of that!
Fantastic place,love the trip round the island next time please include Seaview near Ryde great town.
Cheers
Thanks Trevor, just saved these tips!
Cracking video 🇦🇺
Isle of Wighter here, so nice that you had a good time. It really is a lovely place - you went past my house! I also worked at Appuldurcombe house, it is seriously haunted, sometimes at night you can hear music playing even though there is no electricity. I used to lock it up at night and said goodnight to the ghosts when it was dark. I've got some amazing pictures of orbs, but then the I.O.W is famous for being haunted.
So interesting! I only found out from a few of your fellow IOW-ers commenting on this video that it's the most haunted island on earth!
@@FreddieDobbs It is, but nothing terrible has happened to be honest, and I've stayed at several hauneted places and seen weird stuff. Just spooky stuff. There was a ghost hunting TV series with a bonkers man who went to Appuldurcombe House and claimed to see the spirits of loads of virgins that were sacrificed there. Umm. where did he get them from? Even now Wroxall, Ventor and Godshill are pretty small.... But then he was discredited and well no-one here took it at all seriously.
Totally agree, the IOW is an amazing island. I recently visited Kynance Cove in Cornwall, this is a breathtaking part of the country and is well worth the journey. I would like to see you guys film around this area, you will love it.
We'll definitely try and squeeze in Cornwall before the end of the year!🙂
Quarr Abbey, Carisbrooke castle and Osborne house are also pretty places to visit on the island. Lived here all my life and I’d never want to be anywhere else 😊 Gurnard is also a great place for sunsets
We went for a few days last September and agree with everything you said about the island , it is like stepping back in time and all the better for it. If you go back have a meal or drink at the cliff top place at Niton, amazing views and food.
Thanks for the tip Jonathan, I’ve just saved this🙂
Great channel pal!
Totally agree with the Croatia comment, so you’re not crazy! We were at the Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera hotel which is on Mlini beach in the summer of 2017 and it’s really reminiscent of that beautiful coast line! Xx
Thanks Faye, I'm glad I'm not alone!🙂
Jersey is lovely aswel
Great mini weekend, nothing nicer then summer time in the UK, passed my driving test in a Capri brilliant car
What a car to pass on!!
Hi, just found your channel. I'm thinking of moving to the IoW and I found these vlogs excellent. The blacked out post box you found near the other 'old' buildings is King George, circa 1920. 'GR' at the bottom of it.
Fabulous film again. If you want another adventure get over to Kerry in SW Ireland and do the Wild Atlantic Way. Give yourselves 5 days. The travel days are easy enough - just London to Fishguard in Wales for the ferry, then a short hop cross country in Ireland to get started. It's not too expensive and the roads are gorgeous and empty during the day. With your filming you'll capture it in ways most people fail to do.
Thanks so much for this tip Marcus, I've saved all of this- really appreciated!🙂
Nice vid your enthusiasm is out standing . Been to the IOW afew times now ......our son lives there ..you should of tried going to the needles . Very interesting place .
Thanks very much!🙂 We did see the needles from a distance but had to rush for the ferry- we'l properly walk up to them next time👌
never been to the i.o.w but been to dubrovnic,i know what u mean,oxfordshire has good roads,and a great Monday night bike cafe meeting,all real friendly folks..
