There is one public house, The Sportsman's Arms and a ford across the River Ter.

Other businesses based in Nounsley include Boon's Calibre Travel, Franklins Fire and Safety.

The hamlet has only 7 roads: Ulting Road, Sportsman Road, Nounsley Road, Manor Road, Priory Farm Road, Priory Close and Peverel Avenue.
