Plan ahead for your final resting place

Planning ahead for your funeral gives you time to consider where you would like to be laid to rest, or where you would like your ashes to rest or be scattered. At GreenAcres, you can explore your choices and secure a place in one of our beautiful Living Memorial Parks. This is separate from a traditional prepaid funeral plan.

For many people, planning ahead begins with a simple wish: to have more time to consider what feels right. There is no need to decide everything at once. You can visit a GreenAcres Park, walk through the different natural settings and talk through your options at your own pace.

Whether you feel drawn to peaceful woodland, an open meadow or a thoughtfully planted garden, choosing in advance gives you the time to find somewhere that feels right and a place that feels personal to you. It can also bring reassurance to those closest to you, giving them a clearer understanding of your wishes and fewer difficult decisions to make when the time comes.

Find your place in nature

Every GreenAcres Park has its own character, with different natural settings to explore. Our five Park Experiences give you the freedom to find a place that feels right for you.

Woodland Experience

Surrounded by established trees, woodland flowers and wildlife, our woodlands offer a peaceful place to feel close to nature. Each is carefully managed to protect its character and support a healthy woodland for generations to come.

Meadow Experience

Open, peaceful and rich with seasonal colour, our meadows are filled with long grasses, wildflowers and pathways to wander. A beautiful choice if you feel most at home in open countryside.

Orchard Experience

Our orchards offer a more intimate setting among blossoming and fruiting trees. Changing naturally through the seasons, they can provide a warm and familiar place for families to gather and remember.

Lawn Experience

Our beautifully cared-for lawns provide green, open surroundings throughout the year. With planting and peaceful places to sit nearby, they offer a simple and timeless setting for remembrance.

Garden Experience

Thoughtfully planted and cared for, our garden areas offer peaceful spaces for reflection and connection. Over time, they continue to grow and develop, creating somewhere personal for family and friends to return to.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does GreenAcres provide funeral plans?

GreenAcres does not provide a traditional funeral plan covering all of the services and costs associated with a funeral. Planning ahead with us is about choosing and purchasing the rights to a future burial, ashes or scattering location within a GreenAcres Living Memorial Park. Our team can explain exactly what is and isn’t included before you make a decision.

What am I purchasing?

When you purchase a burial or ashes plot in advance, you are purchasing the Exclusive Rights of Burial for your chosen location for an agreed period. The land itself remains owned by GreenAcres. The length of the rights available and the options offered can vary, so we’ll make these clear when you visit and before you purchase.

Can I visit before deciding?

Yes – and we’d encourage you to. Choosing a final resting place is a very personal decision, and experiencing a GreenAcres Park in person can help you understand what feels right. You can walk around the Park, explore different locations and talk through your questions with our team. There is no obligation to make a decision during your visit.

Can I pay in instalments?

For eligible purchases, yes. You can pay a 20% deposit when you purchase, followed by nine equal monthly instalments of the remaining balance, interest-free. Payments are made by Direct Debit and eligibility and full terms will be explained before you purchase.

Can I pay towards other GreenAcres services in advance?

The options available for advance purchase depend on the product or service you are considering. Speak to our team about what you would like to arrange and we’ll explain what can be purchased or paid for ahead of time.

What happens when the plot is needed?

When the time comes, your family or Funeral Director can contact the GreenAcres Park where your arrangements are held. Our team will be there to guide them through the next steps, confirm the arrangements that are already in place and help coordinate what needs to happen at the Park.
