Britain has incredible footpath networks. The Cotswolds, Lake District, Peak District, and Scottish Highlands are all weekend-trip distance. Waterproof jacket mandatory.
Sunday morning car boot sales (garage sales in fields) and farmers' markets are beloved. Borough Market in London is famous; smaller village markets are often better.
