Overlooking the Lynher Estuary, Cornwall

Rest gently in a Cornish meadow

A natural burial ground where native trees and wildflowers mark each life — and the land is cared for, quietly, season after season.

What is natural burial?

A simpler, greener farewell

Natural burial returns a person to the earth with as little between them and the soil as possible — no embalming, biodegradable coffins or shrouds, and no polished granite. In time, the plot becomes part of a living meadow.

i.

Of the earth

Only natural materials are laid to rest here — wicker, cardboard, untreated wood, or a simple wool shroud. Everything returns to the ground.

ii.

Marked by life

Instead of a headstone, a scattering of wildflowers marks each place. The memorial is something that grows.

iii.

Cared for, always

The meadow is managed as a wildlife habitat, so the ground your family visits stays wild, open and at peace.

The ground

Where the river meets the sea

Our meadow sits among the old hedgerows and oak woodland of the Lynher Estuary, with the shimmering river below and the skylarks calling all around. It is the kind of place people return to long after a funeral — to sit, to walk, to remember.

Plots are laid out in sequence across the open wildflower meadow, slowly transforming your loved one's resting place into a continuous, living landscape.

Planning ahead

Reserve a plot for the future

Many people reserve their place in the meadow in advance. While specific plots are allocated sequentially when the time comes, securing your burial rights now is a quiet, practical decision that spares your loved ones a difficult task later.
