Working from home in Westeros depends on whose castle you’ve just seized, and Ormund Hightower (James Norton) has landed himself the ultimate set-up.
House of the Dragon‘s latest home-invading lord not only pulled a switcheroo on Queen Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) in Season 3, episode 3, but he’s gone and taken over the town of Tumbleton by episode 4.
And it’s here where we see the most covetable home decor in the Seven Kingdoms: the bath table to end all bath tables. Down the bench, Iron Throne.

At the start of the episode, Ormund takes a highly Geralt of Rivia-style meeting with the actual owners of the house, a much disgruntled Lord and Lady Footly of Tumbleton (Adam Brown and Alexandra Moen). In the centre of a very busy room, he sits smugly in their deep soaking tub, a marvel of medieval cooperage and iron sanctuary hoops, with all his diabolical war homework covering his Hightower.
Look, I know there are some pretty good bath caddies out there, but there’s enough room here for his documents and correspondence, a quill and ink pot, a wine goblet, and several pomanders and Westeros-style aromatic diffusers. The House of the Dragon set decoration team has me paying attention. Honestly, plonk one of these in my living room and expect every meeting furthermore to be off camera.
Yes, you might be distracted by other elements of the scene, including the hilariously tiny towel Ormund uses to dry himself. But man, that bath table has me re-evaluating my budget.
