Where is the most beautiful view in Britain?

Wish you were where? Photographs: Getty

A short piece in Sunday's newspaper prompted much discussion on the desk, or as much discussion as the business of producing a paper allows. The story was accompanied by a landscape colour picture that was positively heart-wrenching for those of us stuck in a strip-lit newsroom as it got dark on a Saturday evening. It was a patch of frost-touched Surrey countryside. Cue debate: where is the most beautiful view in the land? The obvious candidates came up - Cumbrian lakes, Snowdonia, cliffs in South Devon ... Although by the time the first edition was published, opinion had very much swung behind the view from the inside of the Coach and Horses.

More imaginative nominations welcome.
