Personally, I love the British accent and wish that I could hear it all of the time. No certain part of Britain has an accent that bothers me.
Every American will have a different opinion and remember Britain has a huge range of different accents.

Originally, both the British and Americans spoke with a rhotic accent. Rhoticessentially means an accent where the letter 'r' is pronounced strongly after a vowel. Rhotic accents are strong in both the US and Scotland, but seem to have disappeared from British English and its derivatives, such as Australian and New Zealand English.
