I wouldn't want to only be able to wash my hands with cold water after using the loo. Sorry.

avenida

For hygiene reason though would it not be better washing your hands in cold water than not washing them in anything before you go next door into the bathroom?

pimento

Yes, but I don't like using cold water to wash my hands.

Can you not just fit a small wall-hung basin above the toilet with hot and cold feeds?

Something like this: http://www.screwfix.com/prods/50273/Bathrooms-Showers/Basins-Toilets/Basins/Grove-Cloakroom-2-TH-Compact-Wall-Hung-Basin-450mm

Have you got a bathroom with separate wc? what size of basin do you have?

Its a nice idea, but I think it would be better with an option to connect a hot water feed too.

I know it might lead to "hot flushes" but surely that would be a good thing sometimes.

We used to have a separate bathroom and toilet and I took the wall down.

If you don't put the lid down, spray from the toilet flush can spread for several feet, so I don't think that this design is ideal for hygiene, especially if it's only cold water for keep it clean. For info google "spray from toilet flush".

Not everyone puts the lid down.

Also to use the basin, clothes etc will brush around the toilet.
