The route we followed came from the CTC (Cyclists Touring Club). They publish 3 routes which are free to members and available for a modest fee to non-members. I don't want to infringe their copyright by re-publishing them here so I recommend you go to www.ctc.org.uk.
The route we chose was the one they call their "Bed & Breakfast" route. Which I divided into 14 roughly equal segments and my wife found us accommodation near those points.
