Wakes in Bideford

At The Durrant House Hotel, we understand how difficult it can be to plan a wake or celebration of life for a loved one. Our compassionate and experienced team is here to support you every step of the way, helping to ease the burden during this emotional time.

Whether you’re arranging an intimate gathering or a larger celebration of life ceremony, we offer a choice of private function rooms to suit your needs. Many rooms come with their own bar, and all are set up with care to ensure a peaceful and respectful setting.

We can provide flexible catering options, from light refreshments to buffets and sit-down meals, all freshly prepared by our in-house kitchen team. Special dietary requirements can be accommodated.
