What to see, and any suggestions of hotels or similar?

I have not spent time in that area with a bike, the maps make it all
look inviting but I would like to narrow it down a bit. Andorra I know
from previous trips, but the rest is new to me. Four of us are passing
through there in May en route from Santander to Calais and may hang
around the area for a few days.

The coast from around Zarautz[1] to San Sebastian is nice.

Restaurants in San Sebastian, probably hard to find a bad one.

Mountains.

Biarritz.

[1] I lived there for a while.

Pyrenees aren't exactly on the way.

Good question. When I did it (lots of years ago), we just picked the
skwiggliest roads we could find on the map and went for it. Then we'd
drive into a town and look for a hotel. Only time we got turned away
was when we crossed into France and they weren't taking any dirty
bikers. Which was just as well really coz it was pissing it down on the
French side, so we drove back through the tunnel we'd come from, back
into the sunshine on the Spanish side, and found a lovely hotel that
looked over the valley. This was before blogs and stuff, so didn't make
any notes, just did stuff.

We're going the long way round, it's a holiday.
