Transport for London's (TfL) website is full of information about travel, including maps for the Underground and Buses.
You can even find a bus map for services operating from a particular area
eg near your hotel. The Oyster Card is the most flexible and useful travel ticket for use in London. And of course you can easily get Tube Maps for your Smart phone.
The London Pass may help you save money on entrance fees around London.

Accommodation & Travel
I use this reliable website BRITAIN'S FINEST for accommodation, from inns and B&Bs to 5 star hotels, but actually it has information about all sorts of places you might like to visit as well.
National Rail Enquiries gives you most of the information you need to travel by train in the UK. Our rail fares for longer journeys are usually significantly cheaper if you book in advance.

I hope you'll find the links on this page interesting and useful. I don't often check that the links are still working, so if you find one that isn't do please let me know.

Last year I was lucky enough to work in London with May, who runs a Cookery School back home in Australia, and organises Gourmet Tours to India.
Holiday Cottages on Exmoor
Little Quarme holiday cottages on Exmoor are set in the beautiful landscape made famous by Lorna Doone. Walk in the footsteps of poet Samuel Taylor Colerdige along the Coleridge Way, or follow parts of the dramatic South West Coast Path. A perfect rural retreat in one of the most beautiful parts of England.
