Keeping a bath may involve choosing a different balance of space. Our Ellon bathroom combines a shorter replacement bath with a separate 1300 × 800 mm walk-in shower on the smaller wall.
In your room, compare how the proposed bath feels internally with the showering space gained alongside it. External length alone does not establish bathing comfort, so review the actual bath shape as well as the overall plan. Compare how both washing options feel in use before deciding which fitting should give up part of its footprint.
Then add the routes into both fittings and the place used for drying. This makes the choice about two complete routines rather than a count of fittings. A shorter bath is a worthwhile option to explore when the combined arrangement suits how the room will be used.
