A final journey with character in Durham

There are no rules when it comes to planning a funeral and here at Vintage Funeral Hearse, our aim is to provide your loved one with the personalised final journey that they deserve. Built in the 1920’s, our vintage Guy Funeral Hearse has been in our family for five generations and was converted into a hearse in 2010, and it’s the only one of its type in the world.

The hearse has the benefit of plenty of space for tributes,  memorabilia and floral tributes surrounding the coffin for that really personal send off.

A Bespoke Classic & Vintage Funeral Hearse Service in Durham

There are no rules when it comes to choosing the funeral hearse for your loved one except we feel it’s important that the hearse should be a vehicle of interest to the deceased; maybe something they would have enjoyed looking at or even driving around Durham & across Durham. Our Vintage Funeral Hearse is certainly a sight to behold and piques the curiosity of those who see her.

When it’s hard to concentrate, you don’t want to be studying the small print so, although you are very welcome to personalise our service, our prices are inclusive of:

  • The fully maintained & insured funeral hearse
  • A driver with many years of experience
  • The service & flexibility that you’d expect from a family business
  • A coffin area with elegant curtains that accommodates large floral displays & tributes
