At Hollybank House, we provide a private, peaceful, and welcoming elegant setting for funeral wakes and memorial receptions in Emsworth / Havant. We are very close to the Oaks Crematorium in Havant. We understand how important it is to bring family and friends together after a funeral service, and our team is here to make everything as respectful and stress-free as possible.

We regularly support families from the local area of Emsworth, Bosham, Havant, Portsmouth and Hayling Island but we also understand that families travel quite a distance to hold a funeral service at the Oaks Crematorium and we are perfectly situated to save a return journey to other surrounding areas like Chichester, Petersfield, Waterlooville, Denmead, Purbrook and sometimes even further away.

We offer our home as a calm, private space to reflect, share memories and spend time together.

Whether you are planning a small, intimate wake or a larger reception, we can provide space for 10-120 people in the house, arranged to suit your needs or we can spread out into the garden for receptions up to 300 people.

Hollybank House is easily accessible for guests travelling and we are well positioned for gatherings following services at local churches and the nearby Oaks crematorium, making it a convenient choice for families across Hampshire and West Sussex.

Our team understands the sensitive nature of these occasions and will ensure everything is handled with care and discretion.
