THE Jurassic Coast has been voted the second most stunning place in the UK.

The World Heritage site was named in a National Express poll to identify the most beautiful locations in the country.

In total, 1,000 people were asked for their opinions by the coach operator.
And Dorset's rugged stretch of coastline came second only to the hills of the Peak District in the survey.

The white cliffs of Dover were in third place, while Henrhyd Falls in the Brecon Beacons claimed fourth place and the Isle of Wight's needles were in fifth.

National Express managing director Tom Stables said: “From wondrous waterfalls to incredible rock formations, there’s no shortage of places in the UK to surprise and delight but it’s hard to think of a better place to visit than the Jurassic Coast.” 

“Sometimes it can be easy to miss out on the marvels at our own front door so we hope our list will inspire people to get exploring the amazing natural sights right here in the UK”.
