Question about which mortgage?

This is a hypothetical question, just thinking out loud...
Say I can lay my hands on £50k for a deposit on a house which is worth £100k, and still have 20k in a isa, for emergencies etc.
I get 1.8k pm, so could easily pay off a fixed rate, tracker mortgage over 20 years.
But would a off set mortgage be any good. I'm looking to pay off the mortgage as soon as posss.
Thanks for any replies
