Although a natural burial ground, Clandon Wood allow their Pavilion to be used for a cremation funeral. A stand alone glass-walled ceremonial building set in a beautiful meadow. The venue can host a wake after the service if you wish, otherwise there are plenty of local gastro pubs to choose from .
Just a 40 minute drive (~19 miles) from SW London to Clandon, near Guildford, will transport you to a tranquil setting close to the Surrey Hills.
What Clandon Wood offers
- Service time is for around 50 minutes
- Typically we pre-place the coffin into the Pavilion before family arrive as it can feel softer
- The coffin stands elegantly on trestles in front of glass windows overlooking the meadow
- There is a screen should you wish for a slideshow of photos as a reflection piece to be played during the service (we create this for you)
- The actual cremation happens at Kingston crematorium – you do not follow there, the service ends at the Pavilion
- Live-streaming option available so service can be webcast live in real time
