Topping the list was the Causeway Coastal Route between Belfast and Giant’s Causeway, followed by the Atlantic Highway between Bath and Falmouth and Newcastle to Lindisfarne in third place.
About the Arran coastal route, the list noted: “Scotland isn’t short on spectacular driving routes, but if you’re short on time this route will give you a flavour of the whole country. Dubbed “Scotland in Miniature”, the Isle of Arran floats off the country’s west coast. During the summer, you can sunbathe on sheltered beaches and even take a dip in the sea.
“It’s busiest during this period, but it never feels too crowded. This slow and scenic drive takes in the best of the island’s sweeping coastlines, miniature harbours, waterfalls and castle ruins.”
