“ A lasting memory of a truly spectacular final journey “
Our unique handmade horse drawn hearse offers a natural layer of solemnity to your ceremony. Especially fitting for those with an affinity for horses, animals or traditional agriculture in general . The stunning live edge oak sidings were carefully selected through woodland management, felled sensitively and pulled out of the woodland by our shires where they were then sawn traditionally on Dartmoor before being hand crafted into our stunning live edge oak hearse.
Our horse drawn funeral service provides the most spectacular final journey for your loved one with the slower pace and nostalgia allowing time to respectfully remember those we have loved and lost. The strong presence of the shires provides a warm embrace to all in attendance and somehow offers hand to hold alongside the lasting memory of a spectacular send off.
Our shire horse drawn hearse is extremely manoeuvrable being both on and off road capable. Perfect for tight devon lanes and church yard entrances. The carefully selected materials and our friendly shires offer the perfect accompaniment to both woodland and natural burials for those who choose an environmentally friendly option with the accessibility of the vehicle providing a dignified journey all the way to the burial site even if off road or in a woodland setting. Our live edged oak hearse looks incredible with both wicker and felt caskets where natural materials combine for the continuity of a theme, loving and caring for the environment. A traditional wooden casket can also be beautifully presented with an opportunity to dress and customise the oak sidings with flower arrangements to accompany your loved one on their final journey.
We offer a personal respectful service with many customisable options for both our and the horse’s turnout whether formal or traditional, the choice is yours. We would love to help make your funeral service truly unique and fitting for the loved one you have lost.
