What's the most scenic triathlon you've done in the UK. Just competed in Gower (South Wales) - most fabulous location. Swim (and transition, etc) in beautiful bay, cycle has fab views. It was even sunny!!!

I havent done too many but a few years ago did a tri very close to the Woburn estate, and the cycle went through the forest around it (a bit dark and cold in early spring!) but the run went through the estate and through the deer park. Not amazing scenery but a great feel to the whole thing.

Competed in Ilkley on Sunday - a hill was repeated a total of 4 times (3 on bike and one on run)...the view from the top was nearly worth the pain!!!

Blenheim is very scenic and good for spectators as you pass them 3 times on the bike and twice on the run. It is hilly though especially from the lake up to T1.

Do they still do that?
I did tatton park this year and it was pretty nice. Cross country running in places though!
