The Oak Service Hall
Suitable for any faith or belief, the beautiful Oak Service Hall is available for both funeral and memorial services. Designed to complement its natural setting, the wood timbered building has floor to ceiling windows, offering panoramic views over the South Downs. With a calm and tranquil ambience, our focus on sustainability and nature extends to our service hall.
The Oak Service Hall can accommodate up to 60 people with ample parking facilities on site. During warmer weather, the bi-folding doors of the Oak Hall can be fully opened to give an open air element to your service.
If you wish to play music during the service, we can provide a CD player, iPod docking station or Bluetooth connection for mobile devices. Please check with the office regarding device compatibility.
Please also note that being situated within a National Park, with certain regulations, the Oak Service Hall has limited heating.
