Direct Cremation in Kimbolton

A direct cremation is a simple, dignified way to say goodbye, carried out privately with no ceremony or attendees present. Unlike traditional funerals that include a formal service and gathering, direct cremation focuses on discreet arrangements, allowing families to honour their loved one in their own time and manner. The process is managed by our local Kimbolton team, ensuring every detail — from collection to the return of ashes — is handled with genuine care. Many choose this option for its privacy, affordability, and flexibility to hold a memorial separately if desired.​
