Agreed, outside of London the options are often severely limited.
I was back up North at my parents over Christmas. Everything is either up or down a big hill, buses are pretty infrequent, trains are at best once an hour (and unreliable) and public transport really cuts down past 6pm, most journeys are more than a couple of miles. There aren't many options other than driving without a significant investment in the alternatives.
