Cremations

We specialise in individual cremations carried out with the greatest care and consideration.  

At Cherry Tree we’re animal lovers ourselves and understand what our clients are going through. We offer a caring and considerate service in excellent facilities which guarantees individual cremations with a wide range of beautiful caskets.

If you do not wish to say goodbye in this way then we can also offer a considerate communal service. Whilst all options offer a respectful tribute, we encourage you to consider them carefully to ensure you have no regrets at a later date.

Individual cremation
We absolutely guarantee that all individual cremations really are absolutely individual and that all ashes returned will be from your loved companion. Ashes can be collected from us or returned to your veterinary surgery.

Communal cremation
Carried out with the utmost respect, whether your pet is a horse or a hamster, they will be laid to rest with greatest care; unfortunately, with this service there is no return of ashes.

Equine cremation
Horses have been an integral part of the Funnell family our entire lives with Pippa and William well known personalities within show jumping and three day eventing; as such we understand intimately the feelings of grief and loss suffered when a horse passes over.

Pet bereavement support
Losing a pet can be a devastating blow for anyone and while we help as much as we can, sometimes people need a lot more support. The Pet Bereavement Support Service is run by the Blue Cross and can offer you support and understanding through telephone and e-mail befrienders, call or e-mail them for free at any time; 0800 096 6606 or email

Our specially adapted vehicle can make collection from your vet for communal or full individual cremation. Unlike some crematoriums, our hand crafted caskets are large enough to contain all of the ashes for animals of all sizes.

Whether you already have your mind set or simply want to ask our advice, please contact us at any time to discuss arrangements for your companion animal’s cremation.
