Is there the same type of accommodation in Ireland and the United Kingdom as on the Camino de Santiago in Spain?

Although Ireland and the United Kingdom have a strong hiking tradition, there are not as many public hostels as in the past. The associations managing their sections of the Camino are working to open more hostels, but for now, most of the available accommodations are Bed and Breakfasts and hotels; in some cases, there are also very basic options in churches, operating on a donation basis.
