The Forrest Lounge

Suitable for Personal, Intimate Farewells

Venue Overview

The Forrest Lounge offers an intimate and homely atmosphere for the smaller gathering. Friends and family can farewell their loved one in the warm surroundings of a lounge setting.

This beautiful Lockwood building is split-level and can accommodate slightly larger funerals or memorial services for up to 50 people.

Facilities featured include

  • Webcast/Livestream
  • a Yamaha Grand Piano; and
  • large wall mounted flat screen.

The Forrest Lounge bi-fold doors open out to an enclosed private sheltered garden courtyard.
This unique peaceful setting is a popular backdrop for outdoor funerals and family photos.
