Some personal experience with this... when I was last in the UK we planned to spend a few days in Edinburgh and when we told people in London that we were driving up in 1 shot (no overnights) they kept commiserating that it was such a long drive...

Not the reaction we were expecting since we'd done Vancouver - San Francisco in straight shots several times.
