Sculthorpe is a village blessed with amenities that many other villages of its size no longer have. As well as the thriving community village hall and the primary school, there is an outdoor play area, bowling green and allotments. It also boasts the much celebrated Sculthorpe Mill country pub having been awarded as one of The Times top 100 hotels in the country. Close by nestled in the Wensum Valley, is the 45 acre Sculthorpe Nature Reserve home to and run by the Hawk and Owl Trust.

The village is 2.5 miles north west of Fakenham and 3.1 south east of South Creake. The north Norfolk coast is some 20 minutes' drive away with the nearest mainline station to London located in King's Lynn, approximately 20 miles to the west.
