Melton Constable
Nestled between Fakenham and Holt, Melton Constable is a former wool village with a rich history, once serving as a major railway hub. Linked with the neighbouring village of Briston, it offers easy access to the North Norfolk coast, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Despite its modest size, Melton Constable provides a range of convenient amenities, including a primary school, nursery school, local butcher, bakery, two pubs, two grocery shops, a Post Office, and a well-regarded Medical Practice. The village is also home to Melton Spice, a popular Indian takeaway known for its authentic cuisine. Adding a touch of historical charm, the 18th-century cast iron cello in Briston Parish Church is a rare find, renowned for its surprisingly good tone.
Just a few miles away, the market town of Holt is a thriving hub with a strong sense of community. Many local businesses support the ‘Love Holt’ initiative, which champions the town’s vibrant mix of independent shops. Throughout the year, Holt hosts a variety of events, including the Holt Festival in summer and the much-loved 1940s Weekend, which transforms the town and its ‘Poppy Line’ heritage railway, running between Holt and Sheringham.
Life in Holt moves at a leisurely pace, with plenty of charming cafés and delis to enjoy. A standout is Byfords, believed to be the oldest house in town, now a well-loved deli, café, and guesthouse—the perfect spot to unwind and watch the world go by. On the town’s edge, the prestigious Gresham’s School continues its long tradition of academic excellence.
With its rich heritage, community spirit, and proximity to the stunning Norfolk coast, Melton Constable offers a wonderful balance of rural charm and modern convenience.
