Horse drawn hearse The final journey can be an emotional and poignant part of the service and often families look to personalise this by selecting a vehicle to reflect the life and passions of their loved one. From a traditional hearse, a majestic horse drawn carriage through to a motorcycle, we have a wide range of transport options available to help you create a unique and fitting tribute. In some instances - subject to terrain and distance, a minimum of four horses may be required or for the horses to complete the final part of the journey only. This will be confirmed by your funeral co-ordinator in advance.

A cortège led by a horse drawn hearse creates an air of opulence, along with traditional style and elegance. We can provide a selection of black or white horses with a beautiful glass-sided hearse. Mourning coaches are also available and come in a choice of black or white. Price includes all necessary personnel to conduct the funeral.
