The number one spot was praised as having "ever-changing panoramas of hills, valleys and dry-stone walls that define the classic English landscape".
The mountain view from Snowdon came in third place overall, but ranked highest for those after a Welsh escape.
The experts added: "Known as Wales’s highest peak at 1,085 metres, it attracts over 600,000 hikers each year. It reveals a 360-degree view across lakes, ridges and distant hills that shimmer in the morning light."
For Scotland, consider The Old Man of Storr in the Isle of Skye, for truly remarkable countryside views. The experts praised the "moody Highland scene".
Head to Durdle Door in Lulworth for the top-ranking coastal views - "the natural limestone arch juts into the sea, with golden cliffs and turquoise water combining in a perfectly framed stretch of the Jurassic Coast".

London's skyline was the only city spot that made the top 10 list. Expect to catch a glimpse of landmarks like St Paul's and Canary Wharf from the vantage points.
The experts added: "With over 30 million visitors each year, the UK’s capital offers countless panoramic photo opportunities, but these viewpoints are particularly special.
"From either vantage point, you can see the Thames winding through the city, with landmarks like St Paul’s Cathedral and the Shard all in frame."
The locations were all chosen based on visual impact, elevation, and scale, featuring both iconic landmarks and hidden gems, which can be enjoyed without special gear or technical expertise.
