UK mobiles with roaming enabled should pick up the local Movistar, Vodafone (ES) and Orange networks. Many mountain areas do have coverage. Though expect to walk in and out of signal range. I've sent and received texts from some point along pretty much every trail I've walked on the island and been able to make calls from most of them. So Tonda, your experience does not match with my own. Mobile coverage in the towns and urban areas is excellent.
