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

[@angiepanaexx]

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. ❤

[@stevo728822]

Appuldurcombe is my favourite place in Spring when the woodland floor is covered in Bluebells.

[@tareqdb9]

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. 👍

[@FreddieDobbs]

That means a lot, thank you! And I've shown this to Monika too- appreciate it!🙂

[@VVoltz]

The voice, I agree. VERY inspiring

[@49googie]

@@VVoltz Totally concur, you both are brilliant, and refreshing to see someone younger than me and my wife on a bike, LOL

[@garywateridge]

Totally agree, he's a natural, easy to watch and motivating to others.

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!!!

[@volt8684]

Just rewatching whole of your series to the present. You both should have a tv show. You have the loveliest of lives

[@taswr]

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 🤣

[@Tomy-ex4nt]

From someone who lives on the island it is very interesting to see your reactions to it all ! 😊

[@SvenTviking]

Do you know Steephill cove?

[@albertomastriaoinni8421]

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

[@ruthtimperley4038]

Thank you for showing the IOW in this way. So much better than the programme that's just been on the tv.

[@dawn3758]

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

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks Dawn!

[@Isleofwightlive]

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.

[@garythreadgill8913]

Lovely to see someone enjoying and promoting our island. Reaffirms how lucky we are to live here!

[@Isleofwightlive]

absolutely

[@adrianwalker7189]

Hi Freddie know little late watching this video, but you was asking about beautiful spots to visit in the UK, well I live in Devon, well lynton and lynmouth and valley of the rocks, beautiful, beautiful place to visit.

[@bobbicrews4389]

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 :)

[@FreddieDobbs]

I'll definitely revisit and see Osborne House next time!🙂

[@ryanscarrmusic2329]

tiny compared to what ?lol

[@bobbicrews4389]

@@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...

[@ryanscarrmusic2329]

@@bobbicrews4389 23 miles i believe

[@barrykeeto1248]

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.

[@room3663]

Dobbs knocking it out the park with the content... A must watch. Top stuff Dobbs👍😁

[@Isleofwightlive]

so true

[@ColSnders]

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

[@dylanrichards9984]

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! 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@rallyzamora8356]

[@nuttybrown7318]

Appreciate all your efforts for highlighting the beautiful thatched roof house cottages. Absolutely beautiful. Beautiful island with beautiful people.

[@mikewoodward5765]

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

[@John-L-1961]

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 .

[@andrewhayes4246]

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'! 😊

[@antonoat]

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!

[@88davidw]

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.

[@allanpeterson3358]

Keep up the good work you two!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@wilbo8328]

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.

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!

You'll have to come back and see Osborne House, Carisbrooke Castle and The Needles! 🔙

[@apeiron42-j1r]

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.

[@m12ttd]

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

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!

[@marcusrichardson3472]

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.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks so much for this tip Marcus, I've saved all of this- really appreciated!🙂

[@anthonykerruish4750]

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.

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.

[@FreddieDobbs]

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!

[@quizzabella]

@@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.

[@johnambro7181]
