You should probably consult a solicitor, but I doubt if the relationship is short (less than 3 years) will she have any entitlements to the house. After that period, (or if for example you have been laid off work and she is the only one contributing to the mortgage) she may well have a case.
If you are worried you can get a document similar to a pre nuptual doc from a decent solicitor.
