Hay Meadow Burial Ground and Natural funeral directors

It has taken me a while to write this review but felt strongly that I needed to. This year I had to do what no parent should have to do....bury a child. In the initial days of the loss and confusion and feeling strongly that I wanted to send my child off without the constraints of the traditional funeral by divine intervention I came across Hay Meadow on Google search and I made the call. On the other end was the calming caring voice of Sarah who from there on helped me along with her husband to plan the most beautiful send off for my beautiful child. I am out of area but she directed me to a wonderful Funeral directors Pritchard & Sons who together took my worries away. Everything was simply perfect. Nothing was too much. The beautiful setting and the additional touches plus the bespoke service as well as the care and support has made me feel that I have left my son to rest among family who will continue to look after him for me always. Thank you Hay Meadow for what you do. With gratitude always Elizabeth xxx

Living near Birmingham and restricted by the pandemic, it has been over 18 months since I’ve been able to visit my brother’s grave at Hay Meadow Burial. My recent visit left me very impressed with all the improvements carried, out during my absence, to make Hay Meadow even more of a pleasure to spend time at. The addition of a shelter, featuring slate heart memorials, toilet facilities, picnic tables and benches has all been done with real consideration for the environment and without distracting from the natural beauty of the setting. It’s never easy to lose a loved one, but, to be able to go and remember them in such a quiet and peaceful place is truly a blessing.

I cannot recommend Hay Meadow burials highly enough. My father had wanted a green burial and as such we were so fortunate to find Hay Meadow so close by. The whole process was made easy to arrange and Sarah was so kind and helpful answering our many questions. We never felt any pressure about anything and were able to give dad the burial we felt he would have wanted. I have been back to the meadow several times and it is the most peaceful special place to be and to remember dad. On my most recent visit I noticed that Sarah and Richard had added a shelter with seating as well as slate memorial plaques and benches all of which blended in well with the environment. I love the fact that they have bird boxes and bee hives. I feel that Sarah and Richard take great personal pride in Hay Meadow with various projects such as the planting of Busnant Wood, a real investment for the future. Thank you both for providing this very special place in the Welsh hills.

A well managed beautiful setting to rest in peace.Thank you Sarah and Richard.

What can I say about this place??Firstly Sarah and Richard are absolutely diamonds of people and make everything so easy for you, they cannot be more helpful.I would like to thank them very much for making my brothers funeral easy and would recommend a buriel with them xThank you
