I think Peterhead is the worst place I have ever been so I am surprised to not see it in the top 10 - perhaps not enough people have been there to appreciate (?) it.

We were on holiday years ago in the north east of Scotland and diverted to Peterhead for something to eat and somewhere to feed baby.

The locals all looked strangely at me when I went for a pint and asked if I was there on business; then if I was lost; then if I was visiting someone. When I answered 'no' to all they ran out of ideas as to why I could possibly be there. The concept of going there as a holiday or in passing was a completely alien one to them - says something about a place.
