Geography may not be everyone's strong point but you would think when quizzed on a list of Great British landmarks, you'd probably expect the country's residents do pretty well.

Not so. Even world famous places like Stonehenge and Loch Ness leave many Brits baffled when it comes to pinpointing their whereabouts on a map.

Rental company Holiday Cottages recently decided to test people's knowledge and found that up to half of us got some of the answers very wrong.

An amazing 52 per cent of people couldn't place the Yorkshire Dales on a map - and only 56 per cent of people managed to correctly guess the location of York Minster.

Just over half of those who took part correctly located Loch Lomond and the Trossachs... but amazingly only 75 per cent of people managed to pin point the location of Edinburgh Castle... in Edinburgh!
