    Not enough info to go on - e.g. what do you mean by 'good'?
    Do you have a preference for fixed or tracker?
    Where have you looked so far?

    I think you're best bet is to search sites like:

    www.moneysupermarket.com/mortgages

    www.moneyfacts.co.uk

    These will let you see what options exist for you. After that, I'd suggest going direct to the lender if you're pretty clued up of visiting a whole of market mortgage adviser if you're not comfortable with how the process works.

    Your big deposit should help you qualify for some of the better deals, and you can consider a fix as well.

    Do you have any credit problems?

    cool.
    that looks exactly what i need.
    ....
    ive used only geerings n collier agent to get a 4.9% fix at 5 years or 4.5% at 3 years..
    i like fixed just for the added security but what do you all think about the tracker or similar mortgages??

    no credit problems either luckily
