Set in Flintshire, North Wales, near Chester, the crematorium offers a peaceful and beautifully landscaped setting in which to honour and remember a loved one. Carefully tended lawns and restful country views lend the grounds a sense of calm that many visitors find comforting during a difficult time. There is also a dedicated Garden of Remembrance, where families can spend quiet moments of reflection.
The chapel itself is warm and welcoming, seating up to 95 people, with the option to accommodate larger gatherings through extended spaces where needed. It is suitable for both cremation and memorial services, giving friends and family a dignified place to come together.
To help each tribute feel personal, the chapel is fitted with modern audio-visual systems, a hearing loop for those with hearing difficulties, and facilities for music and visual tributes where desired. Whether the service is faith-based or entirely non-religious, Flintshire Memorial Park and Crematorium aims to treat every farewell with care, compassion and dignity.
Standard services are arranged in one-hour slots, with the option to extend on request. Where available, services can also be planned outside normal hours, including weekends, offering flexibility to suit each family’s needs.
Whether you are faced with arranging a funeral now for someone you love, or you would like to put plans in place for your own funeral in the future, we are here to help you shape a farewell that truly reflects the life being remembered.
If someone has died, we’ll take care of all the arrangements as quickly as needed, supporting you to create a fitting send-off with or without a service while looking after your loved one with the utmost respect.
If you are considering planning ahead, our prepaid funeral plans enable you to organise and fund your funeral in advance. This means your preferences are clearly set out, the costs are secured, and your family is spared additional worry at an already difficult time.
From the moment you contact us to the day of the funeral and in the time that follows, we will be by your side with continued support.
In the days following a bereavement, making practical arrangements can feel overwhelming. We are here to support you through each step, taking care of the details with sensitivity and ensuring your loved one is treated with dignity, compassion and respect.
We believe every funeral should be as unique as the person it’s for. We will help you plan a farewell that feels appropriate, whether that is a modest family-led ceremony, a traditional attended service, or a no-fuss direct cremation with no attendees.
Arrange a funeral with a service on a day and time that suits your family. Your dedicated funeral planner will take care of every detail, ensuring the arrangements reflect your wishes, including music choices and any special requests.
We offer flexible options, whether you would prefer a smaller, more intimate cremation service for close family and friends or a larger gathering. Each funeral can be adapted to meet your preferences and budget. Additional features such as a hearse, limousine, or officiant are available should you wish to include them.
A direct cremation is ideal for those who don’t like funerals or who don’t want a fuss. Although there is no service, you can rest assured your funeral will be carried out to the highest standard by our funeral directors and staff. We treat those in our care with the utmost respect, and our chapel attendant bows a goodbye to every single coffin.
It can also suit families who would like to arrange their own way of saying goodbye at a later time, or who are not able to come together for a traditional funeral.
A prepaid funeral plan gives you the opportunity to pay for your funeral ahead of time, providing peace of mind for both you and those closest to you.
We offer a range of prepaid funeral plans to suit different needs, preferences and budgets. Whether you would like a funeral service for family and friends to pay their respects, or a simple, unattended direct cremation, your wishes will be clearly recorded and followed when the time comes.
When paying for your funeral plan, you can choose to make a single upfront payment or pay in monthly instalments, subject to eligibility.
There are two options to choose from. The Personal Plan suits those wanting a smaller, simple service for close friends and family, held at an off-peak time to keep costs as low as possible.
The Celebration of Life Plan allows for a fuller occasion, with no limits on the number of attendees and no time restrictions. Both plans allow for personal touches, including the choice of hearse, limousines, music and floral tributes, and the service may be led by family members or by an officiant.
This plan covers everything needed for a simple direct cremation, with nothing further for your family to pay. While there is no service, you can be confident your funeral will be conducted with dignity, respect and the highest standard of care.
We believe a meaningful farewell can also be mindful of the planet. We introduced the UK’s first electric cremator and built a plan to cut mercury emissions across all operations. We track our carbon footprint annually and aim for continued improvement.
We’re here to help you plan a farewell that’s thoughtful in every way, for you and the planet. Caring for the environment runs through all we do, as standard.

Depending on your situation, you may be eligible for the Government’s Funeral Expenses Payment, which can contribute up to £1,000 towards the cost of a loved one’s funeral.
It is also worth knowing that if your loved one had money held in a bank account, banks will often release funds specifically to help meet funeral costs.

There are many ways to create a lasting and meaningful memorial, whether you are arranging a cremation for someone you love or planning your own wishes in advance. At Flintshire Memorial Park and Crematorium, the peaceful grounds offer a variety of options, including avenue trees, memorial bird baths, benches, plaques and other personalised tributes.
Most cremations are arranged within 7 to 10 days from registration of the death, although this can vary depending on crematorium availability, completion of paperwork, and family preferences. If you need more time, arrangements can often be made to suit your schedule.
