The Location

Foxley is a rural village situated in central Norfolk, approximately 6 miles north-east of Dereham and around 15 miles north-west of the city of Norwich. Located along the A1067, a key route between Fakenham and Norwich, the village offers a peaceful countryside setting while remaining within convenient reach of larger towns and amenities.

Although Foxley itself is small and has limited local services, nearby villages such as Bawdeswell and Foulsham—both within a couple of miles—offer essential amenities including a convenience store, post office, and primary schools. Secondary education is accessible in the nearby market town of Reepham, home to the well-regarded Reepham High School and College.

Healthcare needs are served by local GP surgeries in Swanton Morley and North Elmham, with more comprehensive medical services available at Dereham Hospital or the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.

Transport links are reasonable for a rural area; regular bus services along the A1067 connect residents to both Dereham and Norwich, where wider shopping, healthcare, and employment options are available. While Foxley lacks a train station, rail access is possible via Wymondham or Norwich, both offering connections to the national rail network. The area is also well-known for Foxley Wood, a large nature reserve just outside the village, providing excellent walking routes and seasonal wildlife attractions.
