Bath under the window, shower to the side
Light where you soak.
The bath sits across the end of the room under the window, and the shower runs along a side wall. You get light and a view from the bath, and the shower stays clear of the window.

What it is
A built-in or freestanding bath across the end wall, under the window, with a separate shower along one side of the room.
Why people choose it
Light while you bathe
Natural light and a view from the bath.
A dry window
The window stays out of the shower's spray.
What to weigh up
Privacy
Frosted glass, shutters or blinds that cope with steam.
Where the taps go
With a window behind the bath, taps usually go on the bath deck, a side wall or the floor.
The radiator
Under-window radiators move elsewhere, so plan the heating early.
