Afternoon guys, made it home and have checked things out a bit! Firstly, no notable smell from the sink, bath, bidet or shower plugs. Although my wife had 'used' the bathroom earlier in the day, so that might have sucked the worst of the smell away, although there was still a general whiff in...

Once again - many thanks for your help. I dont recall seeing anything higher than the toilet cistern, but the toilet does sit a little bit away from the wall, which I always presumed was due to a slightly sloping wall, but maybe the AAV is tucked in just behind the cistern - will have a look...
