Bathroom help

Just looked at this again.

Can you put the shower where the bath is.  Put the vanity unit on the empty wall under the window.  Towel rail on the wall.

Move the bath to where the shower, vanity unit and towel rail is.

That’s how it is now but I want a mirror above the vanity which I can’t if it’s under the window

Is a fan extraction pipe or a soil/ vent pipe? Depending on which way the joists run it could be routed under floor ou through the external wall and then up.

The obvious solution is a smaller shower tray. 

Nothing much wrong with your suggested layout but I'd opt for a larger vanity in a big room.  600mm is out of proportion.  A squarer shower of 900-1000mm and either put the towel rail behind the door or have a proper radiator (that actually heats the room) under the window.  

The wall the vanity unit is on is only 1740mm so I don’t think there is enough room for a bigger unit if the shower is 800mm. 

There isn’t room behind the door. Is there enough room to put it to the right of the window? 

900mm square shower tray, 800mm vanity against the wall.  

Or build a wall between two so that the shower is tiled three sides and the vanity can be a worktop held by three walls also and of a bespoke size.  

Radiator under the window, or next to the toilet, but I'd go for under the window as it will be close to the sink. 

Not exactly it, but close.  Imagine the wall enclosing the shower properly.

Thanks for all the suggestions / feedback 

The plumber has been able to move the pipe further back which means there is now enough space 😃

You can also find good radiators for towels because if it is wet for a while, it smells bad, and you will have to change them every day. I want to install a hot tub in my bathroom, only I won't have room to install radiators, which is a problem for me. I decided to tell my friend about it. He advised me to check radiator outlet and chose the one that can fit in the bathroom and the Jacuzzi. The radiators must be installed in the bathroom so that there is a place to dry towels. What do you think about it?

Reduce the length of the bath is an obvious one

Standard baths are 1700mm. Getting something a different size costs a premium for only a marginal benefit.
