The first major decision we have to make about the cottage is the bathroom. Although there is a loo and sink downstairs there is only one actual bathroom and it's not very big. We definitely want to put a shower over the bath but apart from that there's not a lot we can do with such a small space. Eventually we may make the downstairs loo a shower room but for now our builder however has come up with a rather clever idea to extend the upstairs bathroom. It seems to be the most sensible option for giving the bathroom more space but would mean losing a bit of the character of the cottage which I'm reluctant to do.
So I need your help. I've put pictures and a diagram of the current layout below and after that is a diagram of the proposed layout. What do you think - should we change it? If you need more in depth floor plans you can
see them here). I will post pictures up asap.

Current layout of the bathroom - the blanket box is in a small corridor and has hooks over the top for jackets. |

Proposed new layout - incorporate the corridor area and put a sink where the blanket box is |
wow I can not think of how to use that space in another way - we likewise grappling with oh small rooms in ancient house and where to fit the towelrail syndrome.
