A Welcoming Place to Come Together
Arranging a funeral reception can feel overwhelming, particularly when there are so many decisions to make in a short space of time.
At The Boars Head Hotel, our experienced team aims to make the arrangements as straightforward as possible. We provide a warm and respectful setting where family and friends can gather, share memories and celebrate the life of someone special.
Support With the Arrangements
Every funeral reception is different. Some families prefer a small and private gathering, while others need space to welcome a larger group of relatives, friends and colleagues.
Our team will listen to what you need and help organise the reception with care and compassion. We can talk you through the available options and answer any questions you may have, helping to ease some of the pressure during an already difficult time.
Flexible Funeral Catering
We have created a funeral buffet menu to make choosing refreshments simpler. However, we understand that families may have particular preferences or dietary requirements.
Our chefs are happy to discuss changes or amendments to the buffet, allowing the catering to be adapted to suit your gathering wherever possible.
Conveniently Located
The Boars Head is situated in Draycott-in-the-Clay, providing a convenient funeral reception venue for families travelling from Ashbourne, Uttoxeter, Sudbury and the surrounding Derbyshire and Staffordshire areas.
