Clematis or...?

I want a vigorous twining climber for the front of my house, which is east facing. We suffer with strong coastal winds, so I need something tough. I'd LOVE a wisteria as they're just so beautiful, but I'm worried it wouldn't survive.

So, a Clematis Montana? Our neighbour has a very healthy one, so I'm sure it would grow here. Which variety would look good against a red brick modern house?

I LOVE a Garrya - I really adore 'James Roof'- but I think they like a sheltered site.
