A special farewell with a horse-drawn funeral
We know that saying goodbye is never easy, but a horse-drawn funeral can bring a sense of dignity and elegance to your loved one’s final journey. With our experienced team, you can choose between a black or white Victorian-style hearse, drawn by our expertly trained black or white horses.
We handle every detail with care, from the route you’d like to take to the combination of horses and coloured plumes that most accurately reflect your wishes. South Wales Carriage Driving Centre helps you create poignant memories that last. We support you from the first call, making arrangements simple and personal every step of the way.

Why families choose a horse-drawn hearse
A horse-drawn hearse brings tradition, grace, and a sense of occasion to a funeral, making it an unforgettable tribute. It gives family and friends a chance to reflect as they follow the procession, offering a dignified and peaceful farewell. Our attention to detail ensures that we handle every aspect with respect and care. The presence of our horses and carriages often provides comfort, helping you celebrate a life with a memorable and fitting final journey.

Tailored combinations to honour your loved one
Our traditional hearses are available in both black and white, and you can choose matching or contrasting hearses to suit your preference. South Wales Carriage Driving Centre offers a selection of coloured plumes to add a meaningful touch, ensuring that every detail is just right for your tribute. Because one of our highly regarded carriage drivers trains our horses, you can trust their calm presence and impeccable turnout.
We plan the route with you and work closely with your funeral director or help you find one if needed, so everything goes smoothly on the day. You can also explore our blog for insights, updates, and more information about our carriage driving services and traditions.
