Beautiful places to remember. Living legacies for generations to come.
A Special Place to Remember Someone You Love
When someone we love dies, finding the right place to remember them can be one of the most personal decisions we make.
For some families, it is a peaceful woodland where ashes can be scattered and returned to nature. For others, it is the comfort of knowing that their loved one’s ashes rest beneath a beautiful tree, in a place they can return to over the years.
At the historic Dunsany Estate in County Meath, we offer four carefully arranged experiences for families seeking a meaningful alternative to traditional ash interment or remembrance.
Set among ancient woodlands, established trees and the grounds of Dunsany Castle, each experience provides an opportunity to honour a life in a natural setting.
Whether you are arranging a farewell following a recent bereavement, have kept a loved one’s ashes at home, or are considering arrangements for the future, we would be pleased to help you explore the possibilities.

A personal experience arranged with care.
Choosing what to do with the ashes of someone you love is a deeply personal decision.
Some families wish to scatter ashes in a peaceful natural setting. Others would prefer a dedicated resting place, somewhere they can return to remember, reflect and feel connected to the person they have lost.
At Irish Urns & Keepsakes, we offer a range of ash scattering, ash burial and family memorial tree experiences within the historic woodlands and grounds of Dunsany Estate, County Meath, within easy reach of Dublin.
Our experiences are thoughtfully arranged with each family, allowing time for remembrance and a meaningful farewell surrounded by nature.
