Burials options at GreenAcres Epping Forest
From a full burial to a graveside or committal service, celebrate the life of the person you love in the way that’s best for you. The magnificent Service Hall at GreenAcres Colney has a unique ambience; a perfect combination of music and lighting, surrounded by a beautiful environment.
Ceremonies and burial services at our beautiful Park are carefully planned so that there’s no rush and no time pressure. It doesn’t matter what your faith, beliefs or cultural practices are, you can celebrate the life of the person you love in the way that’s best for you. We’ll work with you to help find the perfect burial place to remember your loved one.
Our warm and welcoming Gathering Hall is where you can gather with friends and family before the service and afterwards for the wake. You can also arrange to place a memorial to your loved one in our Park.
BURIAL OPTIONS
Full burial service
Traditionally, a full burial service includes a funeral ceremony in our Service Hall followed by a graveside burial. Most people find that a one-hour service is sufficient for their needs, but you can book extra time if you wish. Burial services at GreenAcres Epping Forest include a professional music tribute.
Direct or straight to grave burial
A direct burial, sometimes referred to as ‘straight to grave’, is held when the deceased is buried shortly after death without any funeral service or other formal ceremony. Families sometimes choose this option when they wish to have a service at their place of worship before burial.
Graveside or committal service
A graveside (or committal) service involves holding a short funeral service at the graveside prior to burial.
Funeral Director fees are not included in our prices. For details on pricing options please speak to a member of our team of specialists.
Prestige Options for burial
Offering a greater degree of privacy and exclusivity, our prestige options can be used by families as a place where more than one member of the family can be laid to rest together. These burial options are offered under our Lifetime Term which is a lease of up to 99 years (subject to lease of the Park).
Woodland Glade
Bordered by a low wall created by natural logs, a Woodland Glade offers a unique and dedicated place for families to connect with loved ones. Designed to accommodate two or four burials, a number of ash interments or a combination of both subject to our prior approval. A single memorial post and vase may be placed on each plot. You can also choose to purchase a bench to place in the Glade.
Family Tree
A Family Tree is a carefully selected established tree with space for a number of burials and ash interments, or a combination of ashes and burials. This could be a blossom or fruit tree native to the Park. These trees are a special way to remember loved ones and are often selected for the love of the tree itself. A single memorial post and vase may be placed on each plot.
Woodland Bay
A Woodland Bay is a beautiful space created by nature between the foliage of the Park. The burial or interment plot is marked by the natural environment and carefully placed moss logs, blending loved one’s resting place into the Park’s peaceful surroundings. Designed to accommodate two or four burials, a number of ash interments or a combination of both subject to our prior approval. A single memorial post and vase may be placed on each plot. You can also choose to purchase a bench to place in the Bay.
