The Kings Head Hotel is situated in the popular Norfolk market town of Dereham, known as ‘The Heart of Norfolk’ due to its central location. The town is located on the A47, 15 miles west of the city of Norwich and 25 miles east of King's Lynn. In the 2021 census, the town had a population of 20,785.

Dereham is served by Dereham Station which is now operated as a tourist line by the Mid-Norfolk Railway Preservation Trust.  The Trust has started to reopen the line towards North Elmham and, in the longer term, aims to re-lay the line to Fakenham. Regular bus services provide transport to the nearby towns of Swaffham, King’s Lynn and Wisbech as well as the city of Norwich. The nearest airport is Norwich International Airport which is located 20 miles east. The area benefits from a variety of notable landmarks and amenities such as the pargetted Bishop Bonner's Cottage (built in 1502), the Gressenhall Museum of Rural Life and the Grade II listed Memorial Hall (built in 1818). The town also has a cinema, multiple primary and secondary schools, a leisure centre, a golf club, fuel stations, shopping venues and independent retail outlets. The property is located in an enviable position at the junction of Norwich Street and Cowper Road, where it benefits from a large amount of passing vehicular and foot traffic.

The Kings Head Hotel occupies a Grade II listed, three storey property of part Norfolk red brick and part Norfolk flint construction under part pitched pantile and part pitched slate roofs. It has a single storey, flat felt roof extension to the rear and part double glazed, part single pane fenestrations.
