Aunty Jenny and Uncle Charles have a little shop in Southfields (southern London) called Mowersure where they sell and service lawnmowers. They drove in from Little Bookham every day so we could just catch a lift in with them. It was a great base for us as we could easily walk to the tube station, and could have a place to dump bags or have (free) hot tea :)

I'm envious - sounds like you guys are having the Enid Blyton experience of the UK! Kindly aunts and uncles who live in quaint sounding towns working in interesting little shops and plying their guests with tea and fruitcake with lashings of cream. The only thing missing from the picture is Timmy the dog or perhaps a magic faraway tree.
