While most houses have both baths and showers, not many can find the time to indulge in a long soak.

London – The hectic pace of modern life has led to time-saving showers becoming more popular than baths, a study has shown.

While three-quarters of people still have a bath and a shower in their home, it is the shower that sees the most use – with Britons taking an average of 227 showers a year.

And a third take just four baths or less over the course of an entire year.

“We polled more than 2 000 UK adults to shed some light on the nation’s bathing habits,” says a spokesman from LateRooms.com, which carried out the survey.

“What is abundantly clear is that our busy lives mean we don’t have as much time to enjoy a hot soak in a bath as we’d like.”
