Oak Tree Funeral Services

Family Owned Independent Funeral Directors

How Can 
We Help?

Oak Tree Funeral Services is an established independent family run business, one of just a few left in Herefordshire. Our experienced and dedicated team are always available to assist and advise you. We offer a comprehensive service and are renowned for the courteous and sympathetic way each funeral is individually planned and directed. Your family and loved ones will always be at the centre of the arrangements made. One of our funeral directors will offer to visit you in the comfort of your own home in the presence of your family.

We are situated in Eardisley with chapels of rest located in the centre of both Leominster and Kington cemeteries. Our chapels are set in the picturesque Herefordshire countryside offering peace and tranquillity. We cover Hereford and the areas to the north and west of the county and its borders. Having been established in the area for 3 decades, we provide guidance and advice based on years of local experience arranging funerals.

Our Chapels of rest

Kington

Kington Chapel of Rest is situated in peaceful landscaped grounds on the outskirts of town.

Leominster Chapel of Rest lies in the grounds of the town's cemetery adjacent to the Hereford road on the edge of town.

Services

A dedicated funeral director will make all of the arrangements from when you first contact us, until the day that the funeral takes place. You will be provided with our own home and mobile numbers, so that you can make contact at anytime. This ensures our continued support and provides you with the individual and caring service we are so proud of. Our funeral directors are also aided by Gill and Sally who work at our offices in Eardisley.

Each funeral is individualistic and personal, so we understand how important it is to follow you and your family’s wishes. As an independent company, we are able to arrange dignified and personal ceremonies, rather than following a set criteria.
