Strangely enough, I am also looking into this, although I believe the regs are a lot more lax on this in Scotland.
My chimney is in use as a flue for my old gas back boiler, which should be ripped out and replaced with a combi oiler ithin the next few weeks and as I will be left with e gaping big hole in the living room, I have decided I'd love a stove. Gonna get a sweep to check out chimney and if all is well, I won't bother with a flue, spending the money saved on liner etc on a better quality stove.
