CCBC31000_CONWY_CREMATORIUM_BRANDING_LOGO_PACK_FINAL-10We have been helping families arrange cremations at Colwyn Bay Crematorium since 1957.

About the crematorium  |  Cremation options  |  Cremations: questions and answers

The Colwyn Bay Crematorium is in the grounds of Bron y Nant Cemetery and can be easily accessed from the A55 expressway at junction 20, with ample car parking.

 

About the crematorium

The crematorium complex has two chapels - each seating approximately 100 people, a waiting area with toilet facilities and a memorial room where the books of remembrance are displayed.  The chapel is equipped with a hearing loop system.

Viewing

Colwyn Bay Crematorium welcomes families (up to 6 people) to view the coffin being placed into the cremator.

If you would like to use this service, please inform us or your funeral director in advance, so we can make these arrangements. We cannot guarantee that the coffin will be cremated immediately after the service and there may be a delay in order to view the placing. If this may cause an issue we suggest that the service is booked earlier in the day.

Cremation options

All of our service fees include cremation, medical referee fees, environmental surcharge and an ashes transit box. All ashes are available to collect the following morning or the same day with prior arrangement.

Direct cremation

If you opt for a direct cremation, there is no committal service or space for mourners. This option may suit if you are planning a memorial service at a later time.

Your chosen Funeral Director will bring your loved one from their chapel of rest to the crematorium first thing in the morning.  You are welcome to come to the crematorium to see the coffin but there is no admission into the chapel. The coffin will be cremated straight away and the ashes will be available to collect later that day.

Low cost cremation

Our low cost cremation services take place at 9am or 9:30am, with a shorter, 20 minute service.

You can add personalised elements for an extra fee. These include music, visual tributes and webcasting. Digital keepsakes of each service are available from our media provider.  Please liaise with your Funeral Director for more information.

Standard service

This includes a standard cremation service at your chosen time, usually led by a religious leader, celebrant or family representative. The service lasts 45 minutes (including entrance and exit).

You can add personalised elements for an extra fee. These include music, visual tributes and webcasting. Digital keepsakes of each service are available from our media provider.  Please liaise with your Funeral Director for more information.

Farewell service

Our farewell service is suitable for a small number of mourners to spend 15 minutes in the chapel listening to music of their choice.

This is not a full service. The chapel is available for 15 minutes (including entrance and exit) and up to 20 attendees. These services are available at 12:30pm, 12:45pm and 1:30pm.

This option will give closest family and friends an opportunity to say goodbye without a vicar or celebrant leading the service. You can play music to accompany a moment of reflection and this is included in the cost.
