The best UK road trips have been revealed

The ten best UK road trips have been revealed.

A study of 2,000 drivers has revealed the key components required to create the perfect road trip from the vehicle and passengers down to the destination.

It involves a sing-a-long in the car, a detour down a country road, a bag of crisps – and the dulcet tones of national treasures Stephen Fry and Sir David Attenborough on the radio.

The research revealed that when it came to best places to road trip in the UK, scenic areas came out on top.

‘In the UK and abroad, drivers can take their pick from hundreds of thousands of cars to suit any kind of adventure they are going on, be it into the Scottish Highlands or taking Route 66.’
