Cherishing Life, Love & Memory
Laying a loved one to rest is a profound responsibility, one we approach with the utmost warmth, care and consideration.
“You placed smiles like flowers on the altar of the heart.”
‘On the Death of the Beloved’
John O’Donohue, Philosopher & Poet
In Memory & Meaning
Inspired by a folk tradition that imagined dandelion seeds carrying messages on the wind, Meadowstone honours this symbolic gesture of reflection and release.
Within our landscaped grounds, each step of your commemorative journey is shaped with sensitivity and intention, ensuring you and your loved ones feel supported, with the time, space and privacy to grieve in your own way.

Arrive in Stillness,
Depart in Peace
Shaped by Limerick’s distinctive topography, the county’s traditional funerary monuments and a commitment to the natural environment, Meadowstone is conceived as gently rolling parkland.
A meandering driveway winds through cocooning woodland, while pedestrian walkways weave across a wildflower meadow peppered with bird boxes and insect hotels.
Low-level earth berms form enclosures around intimate gardens, with traditional plots, ash burial plots and columbarium walls thoughtfully integrated throughout, offering a range of interment options.
A Sanctuary for Every Season
Designed as a tranquil gathering place, this sheltered sanctuary offers space to come together, share memories and find solace before the service.
Drawing from the elemental (earth, fire and water), the plaza evokes peace, contemplation and connection through flame torches, reflection pools, specimen trees and reflective sculptures.
With opening hours in line with public parks and a full-time steward on site, Meadowstone is designed to be visited beyond burial services, a tranquil setting for quiet reflection at your own pace. Like dandelion seeds carried on the wind, this is a place where the past, present and future are gently held.
The Meadowstone Difference
We understand that planning ahead involves not only practical but deeply personal decisions. Our experienced team is available to guide you with sensitivity and understanding, providing reassurance and peace of mind at every stage.
Traditional Burials
Our traditional in-ground plots can accommodate up to three coffins and are complemented by a bespoke Meadowstone headstone. Family plots are also available.
Cremation
Ash burial plots and columbarium walls offer a dignified final resting place for loved ones who have chosen cremation, each niche holding up to two urns.

In Harmony With The Land
Meadowstone was created with a deep respect for the local environment and natural habitat. Sustainability and biodiversity are threaded throughout the landscape architecture, from locally sourced materials to indigenous hedgerows, grasslands and pollinator-friendly trees and shrubs.
We are committed to nurturing and protecting biodiversity, not only to fulfil a responsibility to future generations, but to offer the wider community a landscape of solace, stillness and connection to the natural world.
