Hi Iain,
Suggest you pre-survey using google maps or Google Earth. You can cover a lot more ground from the "air." In google maps, switch to satellite view.
When you find somewhere that looks ok, take a screenshot and store it along with Lat/Long and name of road. You can also preview topography in Google Maps.
Some rest stops on minor roads/secondary highways can be ok.
Head out prepared with multiple candidate sites and check them out by daylight. It's not easy to find places these days. In daylight, it may be possible to speak to a property owner and get permission to go off road o their property. Properties that offer farmstay accommodation or camping may be open to a small fee for use of some quiet corner of the property for the evening. Always make it clear you won't light fires and you won't be shooting or hunting.
