There’s no need to break the bank this Valentines Day, as a road in the Cotswolds has been named as the most romantic in the country.

Copse Hill Road, in Lower Slaughter, has been named as the most romantic road trip in the UK by EnjoyTravel, a car hire comparison website.

Editor of EnjoyTravel, Sarah Clayton Lea, said: "We're thrilled to highlight the UK's Most Romantic Road Trips for 2022.

“The Cotswolds' is known for its breath-taking beauty and the Copse Hill Road was a clear winner when it came to our ranking.

“This road trip has something for every couple; from exploring the quaint bridges dotted along the way and sampling delicious baked goods from charming tea rooms to spending a night in a cosy country inn. The Cotswolds romantic road is a truly great British drive."

Roads were graded on factors such as natural scenery, unique things to do along the way, jaw-dropping viewpoints and overall popularity on social media.

This news comes as almost two thirds (63 per cent) of 25- to 34-year-olds are making at least one holiday in the UK.
