Partners
We are lucky to have a number of ‘Partner’ businesses, in the area and further afield, who can help make your stay with us more interesting and convenient. Below are links to just a few, but if you have a particular interest in something to do or somewhere to go, let us know and we will see what we can work out!
Getting here & Going Home – places to stay along the way:

Motorcycle Transport
Colin & Jo offer door- to-door bike transport between the UK, Holland and our hotel at very reasonable rates compared to the costs of riding here (fuel, overnight stays and meals, tyres, ferry etc). You hand your bike and gear to them a few days before your holiday, take a ‘no frills’ flight to Klagenfurt, Salzburg or Ljubljana with just hand luggage, get a shuttle here and bike and gear are waiting. Repeat the procedure backwards for the return journey! Less stress and more time to enjoy our great roads! Contact Colin and Jo directly for further details and exact quotes.
