We’ve done three funerals now at Roundhill Barn. It’s just transformative; entirely different from the usual offerings. The remoteness and sense of peace and open ended time create a special atmosphere for intense memorial events. We’ve worked it all through with Filippa at Bath Funeral Directors in Twerton; she’s now ready to offer funerals here. We’d welcome others.

As it happens, Roundhill Barn is configured and laid out very much like an English church. The coffin can enter the main entrance on the south side, and are carried off towards the setting sun in the west, entirely in the ancient tradition. The interior of the barn has the feeling of a secular chapel, without any religious or municipal clutter.

We’re happy to work with any other sympathetic, contemporary local independent funeral directors who put the bereaved customer first and are flexible enough to offer them what they want at an affordable price. We won’t have anything to do with that culture of “upselling on instructions from head office” which seems to prevail in the mainstream funeral services duopoly (insiders know what we’re talking about).

Take your time. Save your money. Do it right. Funerals are important.
