The August 2008 issue (out now) of Photography Monthly has an article: The UK's 100 Best Landscape Locations. It covers South, East & South-East, South-West, Midlands, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Each location has a short 50 word description, an OS map refererence and a photo (and they're great shots too) with the occasional piece of advice thrown in (i.e., shoot the Giant's Causeway in Jan/Feb mornings).
In general though, I'm always disappointed by these reviews. I'd love to have more information about the location: when to shoot it; what else is in the area; how best do I get there; does it change with the seasons? That's the real limitation with the location sections in magazines: they just can't devote the space to do the locations justice.
