If there’s one thing Britain has an abundance of, it’s great views. From rolling hills to rugged coastline, we’re spoilt for choice when it comes to lush, green landscapes and beautiful countryside (well, at least our rainy climate is good for something).

We decided to celebrate Britain’s glorious countryside with our pick of the properties boasting beautiful views. We were hard pushed to narrow it down to just five, but we think you’ll agree the ones that made the cut are definitely worth shouting about.

5. Approximately 600 feet above sea level, this Grade II listed farmstead offers far-reaching views across the Chiltern Hills.

4. Our pick of the south west enjoys magnificent panoramic views over the Dart Valley to rolling Devon countryside and Dartmoor beyond.

3. Architect-designed with views in mind, this rather unique-looking cliff-top property offers views of the sea or the gardens from almost every room.

2. This chocolate box thatched cottage sits amongst open farmland. It has a newly built garden room, with near-panoramic views across some of the best of Hampshire’s countryside.

1. Our winner – the “royal box of golf” – sits within feet of the 18^th green of St Andrews Old Course golf club. Its balcony gives a grandstand view of the course, the first tee, the starter’s box and the clubhouse, framed by the West Sands beach (which you might recognise from the opening sequence of the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire). What more could you ask for?
