Cremation remains the most common choice in the UK, and for some families a simple, low-cost option without a ceremony may feel appropriate. This is often known as a Direct Cremation – an unattended service where the cremation takes place without mourners present and includes only the essentials required.
Our Unattended Direct Cremation costs £1,745, which includes all essential third-party fees (including the crematorium fees). This amount is payable in advance of the cremation.
We believe in complete transparency. Some providers do not clearly explain what is, and isn’t, included within their direct cremation packages, which can lead to unexpected costs. Our price includes all essential fees, with no hidden charges.
The only additional fees that may need to be considered are if your loved one passes away outside of our office hours, a supplementary fee of £195 is payable and, if you wish to see your loved one in our Chapel of Rest, there is an additional charge of £50.
A direct cremation is the most basic form of funeral and differs greatly from the traditional funerals many families expect locally. However, regardless of the type of service chosen, we will care for your loved one with the same compassion, dignity and professionalism at every stage.
If you would like the simplicity of a Direct Cremation, but would like to have some form of gathering, we are proud to offer the use of our unique on-site space, The Pavilion, via our Pavilion funeral packages; The Pavilion ‘Simple’ and The Pavilion ‘Plus’.
If you would like to add further elements – such as attending the crematorium, arranging donations, or having more flexibility over timings – we would be happy to discuss your wishes and provide an estimate for a more Bespoke Funeral.
