Welcome to
This site is currently under development.
We welcome all religions and also guests who prefer not to have a religious ceremony.
For your ashes scattering we take family and friends onto the beautiful River Avon on our heated cruising boat, The Rita Ellen.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions the maximum number of guests is currently six (6). This includes children & priests.
The River Avon rises near Rugby, flows past Coventry, Leamington Spa & Warwick and then into Stratford upon Avon. The Avon joins the River Severn at Tewkesbury and then flows into the sea. Your loved ones ashes may be scattered in a peaceful and pretty spot downstream some distance away from the busy Stratford upon Avon town centre. You may scatter ashes with or without a religious ceremony. We respect your choice.
Here are a selection of things that we offer...
