A PIR Sensor can be purchased at any specialty electronics store. It is a sensor primarily used for sensing changes in infrared energy. It is a highly specialized motion detector.
PIR = passive infared They detect motion and then activate a switch to turn things on and off

A PIR Motion sensor detects the minute changes in heat and infrared radiation rather than movement.
Yes, a PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor can work at night. It detects heat emitted by living beings and objects, so it can detect motion even in darkness as long as there are temperature differences between the surroundings and the moving object.
A Passive InfraRed Sensor (PIR)
A PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor is an input device. It detects infrared radiation emitted by objects, typically human bodies, and converts this detection into an electrical signal that can be read by a microcontroller or other processing unit. The output from the microcontroller, based on the PIR sensor's input, can then be used to trigger actions, such as turning on lights or sending alerts.
Normally a PIR sensor has three cables. Brown: + Blue: - Red: Sensor control Connect the brown and the blue to your power in. All lamps must be connected to blue and red. When the sensor detects movement it "transfers" the ingoing power from the brown wire to the red wire meaning that the lamps for a given period has both + and - = the light up.
The PIR sensors use the detectors or pyroelectric sensors to work. Example include the automatic door openers.
To adjust the timing on a PIR (Passive Infrared) light sensor, locate the sensitivity and time delay settings, usually found on the sensor itself. Use a small screwdriver to turn the dial or adjust the settings according to the manufacturer's instructions. Typically, the time delay can be set to various durations, ranging from a few seconds to several minutes, depending on your needs. After adjustments, test the sensor to ensure it activates and deactivates as desired.

I've looked into this as well, one suggestion was a PIR sensor, but not sure if you can put them in bathroom, also presume the light would come on in the day also which is a bit daft...
