Loveliest place in the U.K.?

There have been a couple of threads recently about places that you want to get out of as quickly as possible - Newport, Stevenage, etc!
It got me thinking, which towns do live up to expectations? Where is the perfect U.K.-topia?

Lynmouth has always been a happy place for me ever since I was a child.

@Jellycatspyjamas the drive through Glen Coe is amazing, as are the beaches on the Isle of Harris

MN in danger of bigging some places up.
I mean Saltaire is nice in comparison to some parts of Bradford, you can definitely spend an hour or two wandering round, visit the Hockney gallery etc but one of the loveliest places in the UK, no.
And I say that as someone who grew up 20 mins away and worked in neighbouring shipley for a few years.

I've just googled Saltaire, it looks fabulous and is a Unesco site I believe. Would love to go and see it. I love the architecture of towns like these. For rural stunning scenery Northumberland ( across the moor from Alnwick to Rothbury for example ) is stunning, especially if you take a drive there on a summer's evening at the golden hour.
