If your house is in a good enough state to be mortgage-able you'd be foolish to cut the majority of buyers out.
Cash buyers want to buy as cheap as possible - there is no real advantage to you unless your house is not fit for a mortgage.
Unless you are sellign to an acquaintance and not advertising, you still need a HIP report.
A solicitor's fees on a sale is not overly expensive, so please use one.

I do still think you will lose out excluding the largest share of potential buyers. You can still have a quick sale with a mortgage.
Any sensible cash buyer will insist on surveys and searches and these take time.
Most mortgage buyers have an assured mortgage before putting an offer in, so that shouldn't hold up proceedings.
But whatever way you do it, using a solicitor is sensible.
