Default Bathroom Lighting

I understand that the regulations don't allow light switches in

I have an L shaped bathroom, door at the end of the short limb, bath at
the end of the long limb. *Long limb 2m wide x 3m long, short limb 75cm
long x 1m wide.

I'd really like to put a standard light switch in the room by the
door. The switch would not be in line of sight from the bath or
shower, it is definitely "Outside zones". *I can't stand pull switches
near doors!

So is this permitted?

You could use waterproof switches (outdoor type) or vanilla mains ones
on SELV operating a relay.
