Atlantic Rest Natural Burial is situated at Penlow Field, Woolley near the North Cornwall and North Devon border.

Postcode for satnav: EX23 9PP - this will only take you to the centre of Woolley - you need to follow the directions below from the green. 

From Bude:
Travelling from Bude towards Bideford on the A39, go through Kilkhampton and continue past the main Morwenstow junction. Turn left into Woolley (opposite the solar farm on your right).
 

From Barnstaple:

On the A39 after the Hartland junctions, go past the Westcountry Inn on your left. Continue on past Welcombe Cross and across the border into Cornwall. The turning to Woolley is the first on the right and signposted.

Once you reach Woolley Cross: carry on into Woolley, and turn left at the green (see photo below). On burial days only we will have a black and orange sign that says 'Please keep left for Atlantic Rest': follow that road for approximately 300 metres, you will find our entrance on the right.

If you are visiting our website because you are due to attend a burial with us - please read the following.

 

Thank you for reading, we understand that this may be a difficult time for you but please read to the end as it will benefit your overall experience on the day.

 

There will be two temporary signs out in Woolley, the first is a floor sign that indicates you need to turn left, this is a black and orange sign.  You will then reach our banner that will be at the end of the lane.

 

Parking is limited at Atlantic Rest. If you know that there is likely to be a high number of people attending the burial - please arrange to car share. This doesn’t need to mean from your start point; but can be done from very near your destination.  There is a very large lay-by just after you turn off of the main A39 into Woolley.  Please park there if necessary, and ride down to the site with others.

 

Please do not in any circumstances drive into Woolley and leave your vehicle on the green (where the first sign is) or on any verges nearby - we have a good relationship with the locals, that we need to maintain.

 

When you get to the end of the lane, please stop and wind your window down to receive instructions of how and where to park your vehicle.  We manage the parking as best we can but it does require your cooperation.  We ask people to reverse park where possible, so that you can all easily filter out when it is time to leave.

 

We do have overflow car parking but it is limited.

 

When parked and congregating with others, please be mindful of other vehicles manoeuvring.

 

There is a gravel path through the main part of Penlow but you will likely need to walk on the grass too. Please note that high heels will sink.

 

If you require assistance with mobility - we do have a scooter that we can use for you.  You will only need to sit on it and we will operate the scooter.  Please call in advance if this is required - 07775 726 907.

 

Thank you for bearing with, and reading this till the end.
