Hi Jackie, it might be obvious but I can't find the answer to my question here - why not having the shower in the top-right corner of the room which from your floor plan I can see it's an empty space? Perhaps more pictures of the room could help.

Previous houses I've used a steel (so solid Bett Set) square end bath with shower at one end. I know you said separate shower - but a cluttered/claustrophobic room may not be worth it.

It always useful to have the space after getting out to dry off rather than feeling cramped.

Gina, I'm not really sure why i put it there to be honest!! The suggestion to locate the shower as shown on Jonathan's plan obviously makes much more sense! Some of my design thought was based on me thinking the toilets would need to be on the same wall so as to use the same soil pipe, not sure if this is just my incorrect logic though!??? Jonathan, I understand what you are saying about incorporating the cupboard space into bedroom 3 but if you remember back the plan (see below) was to create a study/bedroom from the hallway, old wc and landing cupboard. It wouldn't be possible to do this if we divided bedroom 3 into two rooms as they'd be no access to the far bedroom. Your plan would leave me with no more bedrooms than i have now and with a smaller bed 3. We could of course incorporate the cupboard space into bed 3 rather than the bathroom, making it an even bigger room but I'm slightly reluctant to as this room is one that has been finished.

Bathroom layout - separate quadrant shower, or more floor space?

You absolutely have room for a wetroom - If everything is splashproof, imagine the shower without the quadrant enclosure, and a tanked floor with a couple of drain points. Try to avoid too much chrome in the splash zone as it watermarks. Bath, basin, loo etc smooth and white with no nooks/crannies for easy wiping down. We have an old school towel rail in ours, next to the shower, and the chrome does watermark so needs the odd polish. here are some pics of our master bathroom. 3m x 2m, admittedly with no loo in it. We could have fitted a loo had we made the shower zone a bit smaller and zoned with a clear screen as suggested above, but were lucky enough to have a separate WC.

You could do this with a quadrant shower also to keep costs down. You would need to stand a mirror on the sill This wetroom option would be the most expensive This gives you the squarer shower that you wanted, but a bespoke side panel would have to be made Again, the Neo shower could be swapped for a Quadrant to keep costs down, but you can have a wall mirror with this option PM me if you want to discuss further Vicky
