However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 67 years remaining on the lease.

I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would appreciate some independent thoughts.

As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
