Briston is a large village in a wonderful position in North Norfolk. It really is central to so much in the area.

The village has an excellent village store, post office, proper bakery and superb butchers. All are in walking distance of The Firs. There are also two pubs, a sports playing field and village green. There are bus links to most of the important places locally and beyond. You will find a bus timetable in our information folder. We have found the villagers to be very friendly and helpful.

Briston is a five minute drive from the historic Georgian market town of Holt, which has really interesting shops to browse around. There is even a traditional department store, plenty of tempting tearooms and a good sized Budgens. There is an excellent fish and chip shop a few minutes drive away in Melton Constable.

The coast at Blakeney is less than a 15 minute drive and the wonderful beaches at Wells-next-the-sea and Weybourne 20 minutes away. The larger traditional seaside resorts of Sheringham, Cromer and Hunstanton are close by too.

Briston is in the centre of picturesque countryside and a short drive will take you to some fantastic scenery and villages such as Thornage, Burnham Market, Stiffkey and Cley-next-the-sea.

Norwich and the Norfolk Broads are only 30 minutes away, so you can see you really are in the heart of a wonderful part of the country.
