Our timber cladding is rotten apparently and needs to come off. Should we replace it with fresh timber, or do something different? Ideas welcome.

Properly executed cladding should not cause any issues, but I have personally seen first hand that badly installed cladding literally destroyed a building structurally by creating a great environment for fungus to spread. Before making your decision you might want to go over this official guide on cladding: http://www.fema.gov/media-library-data/20130726-1707-25045-0913/chapter9.pdf It gives a lot of information on how cladding works, behaviour of water on cladding etc. I would personally never use cladding, but I have seen cladded buildings doing absolutely fine for 25+ years. Saying that they were in mild climates with no coastal winds or airborne salt. I'm not an expert on cladding or coastal properties. Insulation on an old house is always a good idea, as it really helps with cold spots and can greatly reduce fuel bills. With smooth render, you can also add additives to it to help inhibit salt, which would increase its lifespan in your area.

Problem with these 60s houses is the bricks are ghastly... very little work arounds to that other than external insulate and render. Claddding always poses an issue of longevity and fading of timber (looks good when installed and a cause of regret when it fades). We have recently used a weatherboard on deveopments in London and it looks great, is long lasting and available in a range of colours to suit everyones preference. https://www.marleyeternit.co.uk/Facades/Weatherboard/Cedral-Click.aspx

Stop making me blush ;-) I like the more taupe ones too. They go better with the colour of your roof, I think. And I really like the Iron Grey one. Victoria's house looks beautiful! And just because I had your house open in Photoshop anyway, I've also tried Cobblestone.
