Our compassionate team is here to assist you every step of the way, ensuring that the ceremony reflects your wishes and honour your loved one's memory.

Wake Booking Form

Our serene and beautiful grounds provide a comforting backdrop on this important day. Whether you prefer a quiet walk surrounded by family and friends or simply some time for personal reflection, the environment here is designed to be soothing.

Our lovely Chapel Barn is equipped to accommodate your needs, comfortably seating up to 120 guests not including any guests that wish to stand, complete with refreshments at an additional charge.

We are able to personalise the wake with background music of your choosing and offer a visual tribute to your loved one on our 120 inch projection screen.

The Chapel Barn can also be used as overflow for any service taking place which is too large to be accommodated solely in the Crematorium Chapel for an additional charge. By utilising our state of the art audio visual system and 120 inch projection screen we are able to live stream the service in real time to the Chapel Barn for any extra people that may wish to attend the service.
