The A82, A83, A85 and A87 are the most obvious choices for Scotland, but I’m going to cast my vote for the lesser-trodden path through Cowal, in particular the A8000 to Otter Ferry then Portavadie and back via Tighnabrua­ich. There are views at every turn. Paul Russell The road up to Cleeve Hill near Cheltenham in Gloucester­shire has some very photogenic spots when the weather and light oblige. Tim Heathfield Just finishing an Isle of Wight holiday, and the Military Road is amazing. Leaving the Wight Mouse Inn near Blackgang and heading towards Alum Bay. There are a few National Trust car parks with access to the beaches and bays, as well as stunning walking routes along the cliffs. Stuart Green The North Coast 500 in Scotland – I’m so lucky to live in such a beautiful country. Neil Fox It’s hard to beat the A65 as it heads out of Leeds via the Chevin Viewpoint, taking in Ilkley with the Cow and Calf rock formation. It’s so scenic that I took that somewhat more roundabout route a few weeks ago on my way over to Hebden Bridge and the deep valley around Mytholmroy­d. Lloyd Spencer Rannoch Moor through Glencoe, then Ballachuli­sh to Oban. A stunning drive with great photos to be had. Drewie Maxx Northern Ireland’s Causeway Coastal Route from Larne to Portrush. Brian Fullerton The road between Ware and Much Hadham in Hertfordsh­ire. Mat Horlock The Moffat scenic drive is the most stunning route I’ve been on and the A82 in Glencoe. Justin Laidlaw
