    About Us

    Established in 1993, our Larkfield funeral home is close to East Malling and West Malling train stations and just a short drive from Maidstone. We don’t have parking available on site, however if you are driving to visit us or a loved one in our Chapel of Rest, you will find parking on Martin Square, just a five minute walk from the funeral home.

    Our supportive team at Doves Funeral Directors in Larkfield provides funeral services in areas including Larkfield, Kings Hill, West Malling, Wrotham, East Malling, Leybourne, Aylesford and Allington.

    We can help to plan religious and non-religious funeral services and serve many different faiths including Christian, Catholic, Muslim, Buddhist, Quaker, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Hindu, Sikh, Jewish and non-religious services. We are close to Larkfield & East Malling Methodist Church, St Peter’s Church of England Church, Vinters Park and Medway Crematoria.

    The community is very important to us and we help to collect food for the local food bank. Each year we host an annual memorial service to support those who have lost a loved one in Larkfield and the surrounding areas.

    Our Larkfield funeral home is open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. Funeral home opening times may vary over bank holidays, but we are always available on the telephone 24 hours a day, every day of the week.
