I think there is a room separator in the host file at that location so when you load the linked file, it cuts the room space.

The Room seaperator is drawn to take the bay window into account, it appears to me that when i link the model in  revit is not acknowledging the non room bounding wall that the window is hosted to?

Select the wall and make sure it's room bounding.

If i set colour scheme to "foreground" in the linked model, it fixes the issue however the room fill also covers up all of my interior party walls

room separation lines can be hard to find. I will usually go to the Visibility graphics overrides > Lines category and set the line color  and a heavy weight. this will make them more readable on your screen. depending on how you have your file setup, you may need to do this in the Link VG settings as well.

That is a good way to fix it.  However, if you want to look at the root of the problem, try changing the host model's bay window floor to 100% transparent or hiding it altogether and see of the linked room fill the area.
