A beautiful and peaceful place to lay loved ones. They cover all different arrangements and help to take some of the stress of losing a loved one away.

Michelle, who helped us through this sad time was kind, Caring and thoughtful, a true professional, Michelle’s professionalism meant so much to me and all my family, and all my family complimented Michelle and the Service saying how beautiful and Personal it was (being allowed to show photos of my mum on the walls was truely beautiful), it was very different to any cremation i had been too,
The surroundings are a beautiful resting place, and i would highly recommend.

Lindsey Clements

The staff here are AMAZING and very helpful it’s so peaceful and beautiful here and you are able to bring your dog to visit your loved ones resting place so very unique. It’s so much nicer then cemeteries that are crammed with far too many graves. Herongate is beautiful and once full goes to national trust woodland to return to natural habitat. Highly recommend herongate wood and Adam Greenwood and Sons funeral directors to everyone.

We buried our daughter there ten years ago, and we received excellent service. Its a lovely place to visit, it was never too morbid to bring our other children to, and its fantastic to see how the wood is now becoming established.
My only gripe is that I think that the management should be stricter on the planting permitted on graves. Too many look like miniature gardens or shrines, which somewhat undermines the ethos of a green burial ground.

Great staff. lovely place. They really looked after my old Mum when Dad died, she was treated with dignity, respect and kindness by all members of staff who went out of their way to ensure everything went as required.

Teresa Griffith

Beautiful philosophy. I am mad about trees. There is no timeline here. Family plots bought in Lewisham were only valid for 30 years – and cost more than these which are for perpetuity..

I recently laid my parents to rest at Herongate Wood and a difficult occasion was made so much easier by the kindness and understanding of all the staff, particularly Natasha. It is a beautiful site, peaceful and quiet. It is good to know that their resting place will be protected.
