Salhouse is a small village and parish in the district of Broadland, Norfolk, England, sitting on the fringe of the Norfolk Broads. The settlement clusters around a village green and lanes of traditional cottages and has immediate access to Salhouse Broad and adjacent marshes, making it a well‑used spot for wildlife watching, boaters and walkers; locally the economy mixes agriculture with tourism and many residents commute into nearby Norwich.
Historically the village grew from marshland farming and reed‑cutting and retains a number of historic buildings and a strong community life with a village hall, church and regular events. The surrounding reedbeds and dykes are important for conservation, managed as nature reserves and valued for birdlife and wetland habitats, so Salhouse feels quietly rural yet well connected to the Broads landscape and regional amenities.
