Oakfield Gardens wins national award

We’re thrilled to share that Oakfield Gardens has been awarded Crematorium of the Year at the 2025 Good Funeral Awards.

This recognition is a true honour, and we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who took the time to nominate us this year.

Our small team has worked with dedication and compassion to ensure that every family we serve, and every stakeholder we support receives the highest standard of care and a truly exceptional experience. This award is a testament to that commitment.

Crematorium of the year 2025

Oakfield Gardens Crematorium

Oakfield Gardens is situated at the heart of Central Bedfordshire, north of Flitwick within the green and picturesque landscape.

Oakfield Gardens is owned and operated by Central Bedfordshire Council. We support families on their journey through grief and provide a tranquil, dignified and respectful service hall for the celebration of the lives of those who have passed, providing timely access to a critical public service.

We have a peaceful and tranquil setting for reflection and remembrance, with an accessible public green space for local communities to explore.

New - Options for cremated remains

A choice of options are now available for strewing (scattering) of cremated remains, above ground interment into a niche and burial into a grave.

Our Eco-burial option is also available as a sustainable alternative to traditional methods of burial.
