Our nature-rich Parks honour your loved ones while providing tranquil spaces teeming with richly diverse flora and fauna for the living to reflect on precious memories. From shady glades to wildflower meadows, these serene landscapes will be sustained for generations, offering solace in the knowledge that memories will remain. Our Parks offer you a choice of memorials within our five Park Experiences – Lawn, Meadow, Orchard, Woodland and Gardens, providing a final resting place for your loved one, a place you and your family will want to return to, time and time again, to walk together, share memories and reflect.
Visit UsA Living Memorial Tree – Living Memorials are increasingly popular for those seeking an eco-friendly way to honour loved ones. A Living Memorial Tree offers a lasting tribute that grows and flourishes. Whether used for burials, a final resting place for ashes, or a special dedication; Living Memorial Trees offer a sustainable alternative to traditional memorials, aligning personal remembrance with ecological responsibility.
Our beautifully maintained Rose Memorial provides the perfect opportunity for family ashes to be interred in a biodegradable urn close to the roots of a delicate rose bush. A small black granite plaque with an inscription may be placed at the base of the rose bush.
Surrounded by carefully chosen hedging plants and closed with a private gate, these manicured Private Gardens provide a quiet space for peace and privacy, allowing families to reflect and remember their loved one in a special environment for many years to come. Designed for both burials and ashes.
The discrete Lawn Grave comes with a simple headstone placed within our manicured lawns. Each burial plot is suitable for burial or ashes or a combination of both, providing space for loved ones to remain connected. The surface area consists of mown grass, with a small area at the head end of the grave designated for the erection of a memorial.
Bordered by a low wall created by natural logs, a Glade in our meadow or woodland experience offers a unique and dedicated place for families to connect with loved ones. Designed to accommodate a combination of both burials and ashes.
