Rose Hill Burial Ground

Fantastically fantastic peaceful place to be. If its rain or sunshine there it is still a wonderful place. Beautifully maintained, it looks wonderful in the spring when all the daffodils are in full bloom.

Lovely place but gravel carpark makes it very difficult for wheelchair users. End of ramp needs attention.

What a beautiful, dignified setting. The manor house is majestic and such a perfect place for a burial. We held the service, burial and reception for our late mother. I cannot thank Rachel and the team enough for the attention to detail. Highly recommended.

It's the most perfect place to be laid to rest, my family had to lay my mother to rest just last year, its the most serene, calm, balanced place to be in.

Beautiful, calm place

Laid my mum to rest this year, gravel path was a bit uneven and could do with some attention. Trolley that too her to her plot looked unkempt. Overall a very tranquil site. We had tea at the house which was lovely and serene. Just a little more attention to detail and it would be perfect. Would recommend.

I never really thought about Rosehill as an option until I was introduced to the idea based upon our personal wishes in favour to a traditional way to be laid to rest… after visiting Rosehill, there was no doubt this is the perfect resting place of choice, even so my Dad has booked his plot! Natural, peaceful, and the House is beautifully kept for services and celebration of life/afternoon funeral teas. Just perfect.

Bit untidy and overgrown since last visit.Chickens and dogs running free and the odd rat scuttling about

When you've trudged round grim, crowded, graffitied council cemeteries at the lowest point in your life, finding a place like this can be a turning point. It was for us.The staff are sensitive and just plain normal! No false, hammy 'mourning', just kind and businesslike. The prices are not over the top, compared to church/council options, if anything it can be better value. There's nothing worse than feeling taken advantage of at such a time. The rules are simple and reasonable, and they reflect the natural option you are taking - no plastic wrappers and 'tat' on the graves, just flowers or planted bulbs.I love the fact you can choose a tree, bird box or other natural memorial. I also love the look of the place, with its plain, smart slate markers. Although there is no escaping the fact that it's a burial ground, and there are obvious new graves, it is a peaceful place to visit. I will happily take my young son to 'visit his uncle' there, we discuss death openly and he can run about in the field. There is no scary, gothic feel to the grounds like with some churches.Once you have used Rose Hill there is no reason on earth to go back to traditional cemeteries. It is not a pagan or hippie feeing choice, or anything odd at all, just burial with a minimum impact on the earth. Some might say it's the way it should be!Our experience here brought a beautiful, natural finality to an awful time in our lives, and we are so grateful to have this place within reach. I hope more such grounds are established in the future, and if you are reading this I wish you well in your search for your own ending. You will not be disappointed with choosing a green burial, or Rose Hill.
