Our Services
Natural Burials
Stretching across 3 acres of maturing woodland and open areas waiting to be planted, our burial plots are green and thriving with wildlife. Natural burials not only offer a unique funeral alternative but allow nature to thrive year-round.
Ash Burials & Scattering
Plots are available for the burial of ashes alongside the option to add ashes to existing graves. A designated area harbouring shrubs, flowers and trees is set aside for the scattering of ashes.
Tree Planting & Slate Plaques
We offer personalised natural slate plaques and local tree or shrub planting to mark graves.
Log Cabin
Our simple basic log cabin situated on the natural burial ground, is fitted with a composting toilet and offers an escape from the elements.
Coffins
We offer recommendations on providers of 100% natural material coffins, caskets and shrouds to ensure all of our burials are environmentally friendly.
