Debt Consolodation mortgage

Options
Ok, in a nutshell
House Value = 300k
Outstanding mortgage = 125k @ £675/month 21 years left
2 x Personal Loan = 20k @ 430/month 50 payments left
3 x Credit Card balances = 23k

Spent 70k improving house some from savings and the rest from the above borrowing

My income 31k + 10k overtime and bonus (7k of which is guaranteed)
Partners income 11k

Although can afford payments on all debts keep on wondering whether or not id have been better to put in onto the mortgage. I know mortgage lenders are a bit dubious of high personal debt including mine (yorkshire building society) . Mortage advisor told me the current debt levels would mean they couldnt offer me enough to clear it. I'd like to remortgage but not at a massive interest rate. Curent rate is 3.74% but fix coming to an end in 6 months

Any advice greatly appreciated

Cheers

    Find another broker. This seems like a bread and butter case for a broker.

    Youll be fine with someone who has some experience behind them.
