I say
Tara
as TAHR-ah.
Sara
is SAH-rah while
Sarah
is SAIR-ah, so if you like SAH-rah, it might work to drop the H.

Ditto. In the UK,
Tara
is always TAR-uh (what you describe as the 'British' way), while
Sarah
is always SAIR-uh (what you'd call the 'American' way).
Sara
, on the other hand, is usually SAR-uh (to rhyme with
Tara
).
