before I go ahead and make something is it possible to buy Flexihose (3/4 BSP tap connectors either end with 13mm (ish) bore) in any length shorter than 300mm.
Ideally I could do with no more than 100mm but closer to 50mm
Otherwise, I was going to use 2 JG Speedfit (3/4" BSP fitting to 15mm pushfit) on either end with a 15mm plastic pipe to span the gap. Would this be okay?
Matt? or any plumbers?

im not well up on flexis and speed fit cause I pride myself in doing everything in hard copper 
Pushfit I think will be the cheapest and easiest

The taps and outlet for our new bath are separates and have come with no method of connecting the two. There is a hot and a cold tap with a 3/4BSP male threaded inlet and a 3/4BSP male threaded outlet.
The Outlet pipe (into the bath) has a T piee at the bottom which has a 3/4"BSP Male thread either end.
The problem with using a normal flexihose is that the smallest you seem to be able to get is 300mm and this puts the tap too far away; also if you put any bend into the flexihose (as it only needs to be 13mm bore) it buckles and so would restrict the waterflow.
I've got the stuff on the way, I'll take photos and get you to check them if thats okay?
