Manager's notes:Norfolk House is situated almost at the heart of this historic market town. It has all the advantages of having everything on your door step. The main shopping area for the town is reached within a minute or two of leaving your front door. Banks, post office and a small, but well stocked, library are all within easy reach. The weekly outdoor market is held every Friday in Leominster's Corn Square.

Norfolk House is close to all public transport. The doctors' surgery is half a mile from the scheme as is the Leominster Cottage Hospital. Most religious denominations are represented in the area and are supplemented with regular communion in the community/day room. This scheme also benefits from visits by Hairdresser and Chiropodist.
