I would plan on doing it on a leisurely pace. I like to be able to say, wind looks bad tomorrow, I think I will stay here another day.
Hostel sleeping is often easier and sometimes cheaper than camping in many countries. I don't know about England.
I like your attitude when traveling, best way to go. Often I feel I need to finish a tour at a certain time/day and that is not the best way to tour.
