Kemnal Park

A prestigious 56-acre venue amidst woodland and parkland that’s perfect for services, pilgrimage and remembrance.

You’ll find things are different at a GreenAcres Living Memorial Park. Death is part of life, so we create beautiful, natural spaces in British woodlands and landscapes that help people come to terms with loss. You’ll find more than headstones in our Parks, you’ll be uplifted by the power of nature and given the space you need to reconnect with loved ones.

We understand that every individual is unique. Whether or not your loved one has been laid to rest in one of our Parks, we provide a range of natural and unique options to create a fitting and personal memorial to help you live with loss more easily.

Living Memorial Tree

A Living Memorial Tree – Living Memorials are increasingly popular for those seeking an eco-friendly way to honour loved ones. A Living Memorial Tree offers a lasting tribute that grows and flourishes. Whether used for burials, a final resting place for ashes, or a special dedication; Living Memorial Trees offer a sustainable alternative to traditional memorials, aligning personal remembrance with ecological responsibility.

Rose Memorial

Our beautifully maintained Rose Memorial provides the perfect opportunity for family ashes to be interred in a biodegradable urn close to the roots of a delicate rose bush. A small black granite plaque with an inscription may be placed at the base of the rose bush.

Private Garden

Surrounded by carefully chosen hedging plants and closed with a private gate, these manicured Private Gardens provide a quiet space for peace and privacy, allowing families to reflect and remember their loved one in a special environment for many years to come. Designed for both burials and ashes.

Lawn Grave

The discrete Lawn Grave comes with a simple headstone placed within our manicured lawns. Each burial plot is suitable for burial or ashes or a combination of both, providing space for loved ones to remain connected. The surface area consists of mown grass, with a small area at the head end of the grave designated for the erection of a memorial.

Glade

Bordered by a low wall created by natural logs, a Glade in our meadow or woodland experience offers a unique and dedicated place for families to connect with loved ones. Designed to accommodate a combination of both burials and ashes.

“What a beautiful place to lay loved ones to rest. So tranquil and the beautiful gardens and views gave a feeling of life rather than death. My sincere thanks to Nadine who was so lovely, helpful and informative. She was there to advise every step of the way and made all the paperwork so easy. On the day of the ceremony Nadine had prepared a beautiful poem on a memorial card and a basket of petals making a painful time so much easier to bear. In short: the service provided was first class and the gardens and views stunning. Highly recommend.”
“From the minute we visited and looked around to the day we put Dad’s ashes to rest in the Rose Garden we have been impressed with how sensitive and caring the team is. Thank you ever so much for making such a sad occasion for us that little bit easier with the confidence of knowing you are all there.”
“My sister’s ashes are resting at Kemnal Park, so when my Mum passed away in the summer, it was the obvious choice to put Mum’s and Dad’s ashes together and lay them in the plot next to their daughter. The staff were so friendly and helpful throughout the whole process, always ready to offer help and advice. I dealt mainly with Emma, who was a complete star, from helping to order the sloping tower through to performing the small service when their ashes were laid to rest. She was very approachable and despite the circumstances, she was always able to help lift the mood. Thank you.”
