Maximising 65K investment for 4-6 months

Options
Just got a 65K interest only mortgage to cover building work on my house, but due to planning and builder delays I'm looking to place it all in a bank account where it can earn interest. What's the best account to use?

    If you already have an ING account then you'd get 6% on that till August. Otherwise the Coventry Building Society will pay 5.1% on all balances for a year provided you deposit at least £1000 or pay £1000 through the account (eg salary) each month.
