Bathroom Ideas
Ideas for a small cottage bathroom, a shower room with storage and a family bathroom.
Fitting a bathroom in an East Linton cottage
East Linton is known for cottages and town houses with orange-red pantile roofs, quiet corners and narrow wynds. Rooms in houses like these tend to be small, with thick walls and low ceilings in places.
A small room can still work hard. Replace the bath with a shower, add a slim vanity and a heated towel rail, and there can be room to turn round. We draw the options to scale, so you can see where the door swings and where a towel will hang.
Thick walls
Fixing into old stone or rubble takes care. We check the wall before choosing tiles, panels or a wall-hung unit.
Low ceilings
We check the ceiling height before choosing a shower head and screen.
The East Linton conservation area and your bathroom
East Lothian Council's list includes a conservation area for East Linton. The council says small jobs like replacing windows may need permission, and the rules allow fewer changes without it.
The room itself is rarely affected. Windows, flues and outside vents are what to check, and we settle the vent route before we order. If the house is also listed, ask the council about consent for changes inside.
Windows
If a frosted window is being replaced, ask the council first.
Vents
A ducted extractor needs an outside route. We choose a position that suits the building.
A riverside village with a train station again
The village sits on the River Tyne. A new station opened on 13 December 2023 on the East Coast Main Line, after the old one closed in 1964, so the village has a rail link again. Check National Rail for current times, because the service is limited.
If your house is old and near the river, damp is worth checking in a ground-floor bathroom. We look at the walls and floor at the visit and tell you what we find, so the plan accounts for it.
Damp checks
We look for damp signs on lower walls and floors before choosing a finish.
Family use
A shower bath with a screen gives a family both options in one room.

Bathroom Fitting Questions in East Linton
Can you fit a shower in a small East Linton cottage bathroom?
Usually. A shower tray and glass screen in place of the bath often leaves room for a basin and a storage unit. We draw it up at the visit.
Is East Linton a conservation area?
Yes. East Linton is one of the 30 conservation areas East Lothian Council lists. A bathroom inside is rarely affected, but windows and outside vents can be.
Is there a train station in East Linton?
Yes. A new station opened on 13 December 2023. The home design visit comes to you, so there is no travelling on your side.
Who deals with building warrants in East Linton?
East Lothian Council. Most bathroom refits do not need one. We tell you at the visit if yours could.
