Our beautiful Central Park Drive funeral home looks like a Tuscan winery and serves West Auckland, South Head and surrounding communities.
Located on Central Park Drive, Henderson, it’s easily accessible from anywhere in Auckland due to its closeness to the Lincoln Road exit of the North Western motorway. The Davis Crematorium is also on-site – part of our commitment to handling all your loved one’s care.
Chapel
Our Central Park Drive funeral home offers a high-ceiling chapel, complete with chandeliers, it is a stunning space which holds 180 people. Your loved one’s casket rests in-front of glass windows that look out to a tranquil fountain and pool. The impressive wooden and glass entrance way features a beautiful stained glass window.
Grounds and gardens
Central Park Drive is a completely unique setting. Inspired by a Tuscan-winery, you’re able to hold an outdoor ceremony surrounded by a vineyard. The gardens are walled and completely private, providing a peaceful setting for your loved one’s funeral.
Featuring a sweeping driveway, the grounds are lush, green and beautifully manicured. They even feature a water pool and fountain.
Reception lounge
Our reception lounge is a stunning room with a high vaulted wooden ceiling featuring solid wood tables and doors that open out onto the grounds. It holds up to 180 people. Because of the full commercial kitchen, we’re able to offer a variety of menus, ranging from a simple morning or afternoon tea through to a more substantial selection for a lunch-type reception.
There’s also a flat-screen monitor which allows you to play DVD presentations during this gathering.
Family rooms
There are two beautifully and uniquely decorated family rooms available for you to spend time saying goodbye to a loved one in the days before the funeral.
You’re welcome to use these rooms at any time during business hours, or at other times by appointment. We can also arrange for your loved one to return home before the funeral.
