Sparks,

Assuming you have an exterior wall (you mentioned a window).
Hire a core drill for a couple of hours, don ear defenders, seal the
door with tape and punch a hole thru the 9" wall. Then fit an extractor
in there which is wired up to your lighting and comes with a timer,
letting run on for up to 30mins or so.

Alternatively, put it in the ceiling... the ducting that comes with
such fans can be 3-4m long, is very flexible and can be vented to a
grille fixed to the soffits, under the eaves of your roof... if you
have any kind of access to the area above the bathroom, you shoul be
able to thread this through somehow.

hth.
