If you've never been, and I take it you haven't, a walk through central London is a treat in and of itself.Mine starts at Oxford St., goes down Old and New Bond, Picadilly cutting back and forth through the arcades to Jermyn, down Pall Mall to Trafalgar to the Strand. Jeez, you'd be shocked at how many FREE world class museums you'll go through or by, great shops, historic buildings, and you'll soak in the atmosphere. YMMV, of course, depending upon taste, and in my many trips there I've seen the chain stores encroach the area to distraction.
If you're an engineer/techie type do the Science and Industry Museum. If art, well, there are so many choices. If anthro, do the Museum of Man and the British Museum of course. The list would occupy weeks.
In Bath, visit the Roman baths and the Georgian circles and relax.
