Sgt,
I did a similar trip in March and used the Michelin Red folding maps also, the scenic routes marked in green are particularly useful.
As for accomodation then I stayed in some Hostals in Spain, cheap and clean, either ask at the local petrol station or just ride around looking for a Hostal sign.
Is there something particular you want to see do in France? you might want to look at the Portsmouth/Plymouth - Santander ferry, gets you right to the great roads in northern Spain and normally works out cheaper than riding through France.
I did a bit of a ride report on my trip here:
