Suffolk's Old Tack Room Offers a Serene Countryside Retreat Amid Nature
A snowstorm in Malmö recently disrupted local activities, forcing the cancellation of padel matches. Meanwhile, across the North Sea, a thoughtfully designed retreat in Suffolk has been drawing attention for its calming interiors and leisure offerings. The Old Tack Room, a small yet stylish home, now provides a peaceful escape for weekend visitors.
The Old Tack Room sits within a sprawling estate in Suffolk, England. Designed in partnership with an unnamed studio—possibly linked to Design & That—the space features soft tones, rich textures, and an open-plan layout. Guests can enjoy slow mornings or evenings by the fireplace in a setting built for relaxation.
Beyond the cozy interiors, the estate itself offers a range of activities. Visitors can join yoga sessions, book private dining, or try beauty treatments. For those seeking adventure, horse riding and watersports are also available.
Back in Sweden, the recent snowstorm in Malmö led to the cancellation of padel games. The country is no stranger to harsh weather, which even plays a role in driver training. Swedish licence applicants must pass a moose test, proving they can control a vehicle in slippery conditions.
In Malmö's design scene, a subtle but effective change has been made in some interiors. White walls have been repainted in a soft off-white shade, adding warmth and a touch of luxury to living spaces.
The Old Tack Room now welcomes guests looking for a quiet countryside retreat. Its blend of comfort and estate activities makes it ideal for short getaways. Meanwhile, Malmö's snowstorm serves as a reminder of Sweden's unpredictable winters—both a challenge for drivers and a factor in everyday life.
