No matter the weather, a road trip can always be on the cards. They\u2019re an awesome way to experience the world all at your own pace. Whether you fancy packing up and hitting the road for a while, or just a weekend break to let off some steam \u2013 driving around the UK can be both beautiful and exhilarating. From isolated stretches of moorland to scenic coastal drives, the places we\u2019ve chosen will live long in the memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thinking about which car would be best suited though for your next trip? We\u2019ve got you covered, as we have matched each journey with our choice of car to enhance the road for both yourself and your passengers. So drive slowly, stop often, and don\u2019t worry about taking a long way around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

North Coast 500, Scotland<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"best<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting from the top of the UK, the North Coast 500 takes you through the vast and imposing Scottish Highlands on a 500-mile round trip. Snake your way between mammoth hills of weather-beaten grasses, past sand dunes and empty beaches, deep freshwater lochs and some of the most picturesque Scottish wilderness, forming a loop around the entire northern tip of the country. If you\u2019re into spooky ruins of ancient villages, stately castles and grazing Shetland ponies, then this is the trip for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"KGM<\/figure>
\n

Stoneacre\u2019s 2026 Recommended Car: KGM Torres <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The newly rebranded KGM (formerly SsangYong) released the Torres, and it is built for the Highlands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its rugged, “tough-as-nails” aesthetic isn\u2019t just for show; with a massive 703-litre boot, it swallows camping gear, hiking boots, and supplies for a week in the wilderness without breaking a sweat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its high ground clearance and robust build make it the perfect companion for the NC500’s more remote, single-track stretches.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Coniston Loop, Lake District<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"best<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are enough roads in the Lake District to almost feel like you\u2019re driving through Switzerland. This route particularly is a 42-mile journey that takes you through some of the rarely seen parts of the District. Best for driving through the day, you\u2019ll visit Duddon Valley, an area so famed for beauty, poet William Wordsworth wrote The River Duddon, A Series of Sonnets in 1820.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other high points of this road trip include Stanley Force waterfall, Dalegarth station on the miniature Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway, and Hardknott Roman Fort. Every village and hamlet you pass will have coffee shops and pubs \u2013 great for stretching your legs and taking in the views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"MG3<\/figure>
\n

Stoneacre\u2019s 2026 Recommended Car: MG3 Hybrid+<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Lake District\u2019s narrow lanes and steep gradients require something punchy yet compact. The MG3 Hybrid+ is a 2026 standout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With almost 200 hp\u2014nearly double the power of most small hatchbacks\u2014it zips up the Hardknott Pass with surprising ease. Its “Hybrid+” technology means you\u2019ll glide silently through sleepy villages like Coniston on electric power, keeping the tranquil atmosphere exactly as Wordsworth would have wanted it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

North York Moors National Park, North Yorkshire<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"best<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One word \u2013 picturesque. With the world\u2019s largest collection of heather moorland, the rough and windswept landscape has a timeless quality to it that you could lose yourself for days. There are several journeys you could take through the moors, but we recommend the 50-mile route from Hemsley to Whitby to really enjoy the rugged views and interesting sites. With pit stops like Rievaulx Abbey, an 11th-century abbey ruins, or Captain Cook’s monument on the Cleveland Way hiking trail, making your way for some fish and chips in Whitby has never been more exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Polestar<\/figure>
\n

Stoneacre\u2019s 2026 Recommended Car: Polestar 4 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For a landscape this timeless, you want a car that feels like the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Polestar 4 is a “SUV-coupe” that lacks a traditional rear window, using a high-definition camera system instead. This allows for a panoramic glass roof that stretches right back, giving your passengers an unparalleled view of the Yorkshire skies and moors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s 100% electric, incredibly sleek, and provides a peaceful, high-tech sanctuary for the drive to Whitby.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Snowdonia to Anglesey, West Coast Wales<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"best<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you fancy a scenic drive across 26 miles of the Welsh countryside, then Snowdonia to Anglesey is the way to go. The excursion is bursting with things to see and do along the way, including visits to the region\u2019s highest peak, Snowdonia, and Penrhyn Castle and Garden. If you opt to cross the Britannia Bridge onto Anglesey, consider having a visit to the town with the world\u2019s longest name, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. There\u2019s not much to do here, but it makes a great photo to send to your mates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The endpoint of your journey is South Stack Lighthouse on Holy Island, which is great in summer, as you can climb the lighthouse for fantastic ocean views out towards Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"BYD<\/figure>
\n

Stoneacre\u2019s 2026 Recommended Car: BYD Sealion 7 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As you head toward the world\u2019s longest-named town, you\u2019ll want a car that\u2019s equally impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BYD Sealion 7 is a premium electric SUV that features the revolutionary “Blade Battery,” making it one of the safest and most efficient EVs on the road in 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its spacious, vegan-leather interior is the height of comfort for exploring Snowdonia, and its rapid-charging capabilities mean a quick top-up in Bangor is all you need to reach the South Stack Lighthouse.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Causeway Coastal Route, Ireland<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"best<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jump on a ferry and head over to Ireland for the longest road trip on the list, so make sure to book some hotels or B&Bs on the way. The Causeway Coastal Route is a 130-mile road trip linking Northern Ireland\u2019s 2 largest cities \u2013 Belfast and Derry. One of the UK\u2019s most celebrated seaside routes, you will pass a collection of famous landmarks along the way so you should expect to stop often on this journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The town of Ballycastle marks the halfway point of the route \u2013 it’s just a few miles from Northern Ireland\u2019s most famous tourist attraction, the Giant\u2019s Causeway. Factor in some time to stop and gaze at this geological peculiarity but be ready for some extreme weather conditions. Other highlights along the way include Dunluce Castle and the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dacia<\/figure>
\n

Stoneacre\u2019s 2026 Recommended Car: Dacia Bigster<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Dacia Bigster is the “big brother” to the famous Duster and is the ultimate value-choice for a family odyssey in Northern Ireland. It offers massive interior space for a fraction of the price of premium rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re travelling with the whole family to see the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge, the Bigster\u2019s “no-nonsense” ruggedness and hybrid efficiency make it the most sensible (and stylish) way to tackle the Atlantic weather.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Atlantic Highway, South West England<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"best<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Atlantic Highways is a 70-mile section of the A39 that runs from Barnstaple in North Devon down to the seaside town of Newquay in Cornwall. This drive takes around 1.5 hours and presents many beautiful coastal views on one side with hilly landscapes on the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlights on the Atlantic Highway include many beautiful beaches, such as Westward Ho! in Devon and Summerleaze Beach in Bude on Cornwall\u2019s northern shore. If you have time, take a short detour along the toll road to the lighthouse at Trevose Head near Padstow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"CUPRA<\/figure>
\n

Stoneacre\u2019s 2026 Recommended Car: CUPRA Tavascan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Atlantic Highway is all about style and coastal vibes. The CUPRA Tavascan\u2014the brand\u2019s first all-electric SUV coupe\u2014is a head-turner that matches the trendy energy of Newquay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its glowing exterior logos and a futuristic “Y-shaped” interior console, it feels like a concept car brought to life. It handles the winding coastal roads with sporty precision, ensuring the drive is just as exciting as the destination.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
