Dorset Downs Natural Burial Ground is a peaceful meadow nestled within the rolling Dorset countryside, offering a naturally beautiful place where families can remember their loved ones surrounded by nature. Protected as a natural burial ground, the meadow has been carefully preserved to allow wildlife to thrive while providing families with a peaceful place to return, reflect and remember for generations to come.

Run by Leedam Natural Burials, we offer natural memorial options including ashes interments and handcrafted oak memorial plaques. Every ashes interment location is carefully recorded using precise GPS and what3words coordinates, making it easy for family and friends to return and visit whenever they wish.
