If you have a system boiler or heat only boiler, your hot water is stored in a cylinder, and once it’s been used up, you’ll have to wait until it re-heats before that bath. Give it an hour. If you have a combi boiler, it will make no difference if someone has just had a bath – it heats water …

So I don't think you've really thought this through. The cheapest route in terms of running costs is gas CH and DHW, if you have access to a mains supply.
