At this stage I am just checking a SIPP is the correct way to go.
Well you should certainly look at other options, but as I personally only have any experience with SIPPs I'll just comment on that.
You've said that picking your own funds has been beneficial, which is a "vote" for also doing so in a SIPP. If you want to carry that practice over into a SIPP there's not a lot of "cheap" options, due to the tendency of most brokers to have
ad valorem pricing for holding funds, i.e. charging you a % of the value of those holdings each year.
Of the flat fee for funds brokers, AFAIK there's just Interactive Investor, IWeb/Halifax and ShareDeal Active, and
IWeb is actually
Halifax with a different skin on; both are part of the Lloyds banking group.
Personally, I have dealing accounts and ISAs with Interactive Investor and IWeb, and my SIPP with IWeb. I don't know anything about ShareDeal Active.
Monevator is a good source for quick broker comparisons. Take a look at:
https://monevator.com/find-the-best-online-broker/https://monevator.com/compare-uk-cheapest-online-brokers/ https://monevator.com/cheapest-pension-diy/Of the ad valorem brokers the cheapest is Vanguard at 0.15%pa, which at £150pa for £100K may be competitive for you considering that everything else is free with them ... but, of course, you can only buy hold Vanguard products (ETFs/funds) with them, which is kinda restrictive.
