    Bury St Edmunds direct cremation

    If a traditional funeral isn't right for you, we offer direct cremation as a simpler, more cost-effective alternative.

    • This service is unattended, but our team still provides the care and respect your family deserves.
    • It covers everything necessary for a respectful goodbye, from the coffin to transport and the cremation itself.
    • The coffin rests in the chapel with a piece of music chosen by the family before cremation.
    • The ashes can be returned to the family or scattered in our tranquil grounds.

    A direct cremation in Bury St Edmunds offers lower costs, plus the flexibility to hold a separate memorial at a location that’s meaningful to you.
