Celebration of life at Harefield Barn

We understand that losing a loved one can be a difficult and emotional time, and we want to offer you a beautiful space to celebrate their life and honour their memory.

Combining city convenience with a stunning countryside location for the perfect event space

Whether you choose to hold a celebration tea following a church funeral or a celebration of life, we are able to offer a special place to share time with family and friends, and which will be exclusively yours.

A celebration of life is often more upbeat and less formal than a traditional funeral, with the focus on celebration rather than mourning. Unlike a funeral service, the body is not present at these events, and it’s a lovely time to share stories and memories.
