Most beautiful UK County you have spent time in?

[Mr Everyone]

Turning our geographical focus of this great country into a positive one.


I nominate Derbyshire; Ashbourne, Matlock and Buxton. Oh yes!

 

[Frutos]

Sussex

 

[Lincoln Imp]

Goes without saying.

 

[Muzzy]

I can never understand why people from this area bypass Dorset to get all the way to the overrated Cornwall!

 

[sixnilup]

Sussex then Derbyshire

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Cumbria, for the Lake District.

 

[seagull_special]

herefordshire and shropshire

 

[Beach Hut]

Sussex by a country mile

 

[Eric Potts]

Cumbria, for the Lake District.

THIS : Very much so

The counties are less clearly defined than in England, but gotta be mid/north west Wales for me, so Merioneth, Caenarfonshire kinda way. Beautiful mountains (complete with forests and government-maintained mountain bike trails), awesome beaches.

 

[philsussex]

Sussex

 

[Commander]

Cornwall. And parts of Shropshire.

I was born and raised in Purbeck so I am a bit biased towards Dorset. Sussex is OK but come on, those of you who think that Sussex is the most beautiful county really do need to get out a bit.

 

[sams dad]

This is a tough call. The Yorkshire Dales are stunning, so they would be my first choice followed closely by the Exmoor National Park in North Devon/West Somerset.

 

[Twinkle Toes]

Cumbria, for the Lake District.

Good call Edna.

ps Although it isn't a county (obviously), the Isle of Man is has all the wonderful landscapes you find on the mainland - but on a mini scale. Oh, and it's got many sections of first-class roads that have no speed limit (not to mention the best motorcycle racing in the world). Marvelous.

 

[Deleted member 18477]

No competition. Sussex.

 

[patchamalbion]

Gloucestershire,Cumbria and Cornwall

 

[the right footed denilson]

Crawley, East Grinstead, Burgess Hil, Hastings, Gatwick Airport. Beautiful!!

 

[severnside gull]

much as I love (and live in) Shropshire and its blue remembered hills, I couldn't nominate anywhere without a coastline - which bit of coastline I haven't a clue as it is all fantastic! Caermarthenshire? Sutherland? Cumbria?.................... I will have to be dull and say Devon just because it has two coastlines and some beautiful rolling green hills inbetween.

North Yorkshire and parts of Hertfordshire
