I wouldn't worry about training on something aerobatic - there's time for that later and your lessons will be much cheaper if you stick to a non-aerobatic aircraft for the time being.
Why is it a stretch from London? The Tiger Club is only a 5mins taxi from Upminster tube station these days. Based at Damyns Hall. They do allow PPL tuition in their cub, they dont have full time flight instructors but there are a few around - I would contact them and see what they say! Https://tigerclub.co.uk
For aerobatics, they also have a cap10. I don't think you should mix the aeros with the ab initio, and you wouldnt be able to obtain the EASA aerobatic rating until you had 40 hours PIC after licence issue.
Other option is White Waltham, they do have many full time instructors, but it can be hard to book an appointment as they are so busy.
Hope this helps!
