Eco-friendly travel
- Tap water is safe to drink. Bring a refillable bottle. Free refill points are common.
- Use trains and buses: London transport takes contactless cards.
- Walk the national trails and the coast path: well marked and beautiful.
- Respect the Countryside Code: close gates, keep dogs on a lead near animals, take your litter home.
- Recycling bins are everywhere: check the labels.
- Many shops charge for plastic bags: bring your own.
