Kitchen design challenge

We’ve had Howdens and a local independent do a
Plan, not impressed with the options given links below to photos of the existing, plans from those 2 a sketch of something we’ve come up with and a fairly blank plan if someone wants ago.
The double doors are staying, (but plans show one gone) they lead trough to the dining room.
The main user is short (4ft11) and somewhat immobile so howdens do a 60mm plinths (instead of 150). DIY kitchens do 575mm units in a limited range so was thinking of using them for under a breakfast bar to sit at using chairs (stools are no good). They also do 100mm plinth.
Howdens do pull down units for inside the wall units. Then we want a slide and hide oven set at a lower height so dishes don’t have to be lifted up into it or bending down For an under counter one. Keeping the existing fridge freezer, the boiler and tumble dryer will leave the kitchen. Would like a slimline dishwasher.

Which of the many doors do you actually enter from?

On the last plan the double doors are from dining room through that is the stairs. The door on the left is to a utility room/toilet. The door at the top is to the lounge, the door and window on the right is to outside and the only entrance to the house, apart from patio doors in the lounge.0
