Its close proximity to the A47 gives easy access to Dereham, Norwich and Swaffham and Fakenham.

Beeston has a pleasant community and a useful village store and pub which is owned and run by the community. There is also small primary school.
Named as one of the best places to live in 2021, Norwich lies approximately 20 miles from the coast at the confluence of the River Yare and the River Wensum, the latter still bending its way through the heart of the city.
Swaffham is a thriving and historic market town with an extensive range of local amenities including a Waitrose, Tesco, Asda, further shops, pubs and restaurants, three doctors surgeries and primary, secondary and higher schools together with a variety of leisure and sports activities including an excellent Golf Club.
