Salthouse is a small coastal village on the North Norfolk coast of Norfolk, England, set behind a shingle beach and broad salt marshes that run down to the North Sea. It sits between Cley-next-the-Sea and Weybourne, lies within the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is close to the RSPB reserve at Cley Marshes, so it is popular with birdwatchers, walkers and people seeking quiet coastal scenery.
The village name reflects its marshland and salt-related heritage, and you’ll find a small historic core of cottages and an old parish church. Today the local economy centres on agriculture, conservation and tourism - holiday lets, cafes and guided walks - and life in Salthouse is shaped by coastal change, a strong local community and long-standing Norfolk traditions.
