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.

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.

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.

From a professional aspect as a Celebrant, I love working with the team here. Every time we’ve led a Funeral together, it’s done with warmth, compassion, perfection and attention to the smallest detail. A real privilege.

Tracy Bewers

On arrival at Herongate Wood for our very first time, we were quite taken aback by how wonderfully peaceful and tranquil the place is, the view for miles, the wildlife and the lovely duck pond all adding to its beauty.
The service we received has been exceptional throughout.
Julie made us feel very at ease at such a terribly sad time, with her professionalism, lovely manner, her compassion and understanding.
We can’t thank you enough for the wonderful send off you helped us give my darling mum. I can actually look back upon the day with an affection of knowing how beautiful it was, and that’s something I never expected to feel.

Janet Wyatt

We went over to Herongate Wood Cemetery yesterday with my children and family to plant some plants under the tree we have for my husband Nigel who we lost a year ago. It is lovely and peaceful over there. Well looked after and staff are very helpful if you need them. We had the service held there last year through Adam and Greenwood funeral directors in Billericay. The staff were very helpful and caring would recommend them.
