Aura’s simple, low cost direct cremation services allow you to arrange no-fuss funeral in Ayr.
As the birthplace of Scottish poet Robert Burns, the seaside town of Ayr is teeming with history. But amongst the charming seafront and leafy suburbs, Ayr is also home to Aura, the UK's top-rated direct cremation service provider.
Aura is a family-run company that provides the UK’s top-rated direct cremation services, whether they’re needed now or in the future. With our cremations, there are no hearses or pallbearers; instead we offer a simple, affordable direct cremation to families throughout Ayr.
Our five-star rated direct cremation services are available throughout Ayr and beyond, including Culroy, Dalrymple, Coylton, Annbank, Fail, Loans and Prestwick.
Aura's direct cremation services are available to families across all of Scotland, including Aberdeen, Dumfries, Dundee, East Kilbride, Edinburgh, Falkirk, Glasgow, Hamilton, Inverness, Livingston, Marlborough, Melrose, Motherwell, Paisley, Perth, and Stirling.
Whilst we proudly serve families in Ayr and across the UK, please note that Aura is not physically based in Ayr. We cannot guarantee that the cremation will take place in this specific area, unless it has been requested at an additional cost. If you have questions, our friendly team is here to help.
As a family-run company, it's exactly what we'd want for members of our own family. We deliver on the promises we make to our customers, whether it's in the service that we provide to you or the practices in which we care for your loved one behind the scenes. You can read more about our processes. Don't just take our word for it, see how we compare to the others.

If your loved one would not have wanted a typical funeral with a hearse and a procession, then a Direct Cremation may be the right option for them. It is a type of funeral ceremony that is becoming more popular in the UK, because it gives us the opportunity to let our personalities shine through, which can make a difficult time more bearable. It is usually a brief and unattended ceremony, although we understand that it can be important to witness this moment, so we can easily arrange for attendance, if you would like. We can handle the details in Ayr, including the escorting of your loved one to the crematorium, as well as the return of their ashes to you, depending on what you would prefer. This options gives a concise but memorable and dignified goodbye.
A sudden and unexpected funeral can lead to extra cost and financial strain, even at the best of times. If you are worried about paying for the cost of a funeral, we would be pleased to hear from you over the phone; we can take you step-by-step through your options, and give you a quote that works for you. An Aura funeral could cost less than half of the average price of a UK funeral, and we can provide this kind of service in Ayr from as little as £1,195.
We would be honoured to help you express your ideas, and bring your loved one's personality front and centre of the ceremony. We can recommend a few different ideas to get started: some people, for instance, like to make sure that they can attend the ceremony with friends and family, which we can easily arrange. Others like to provide the celebrant with some personalised words about their loved one which can be read as the ceremony starts. We would be glad to receive your call where we can discuss the details, and help you to make this as memorable as possible.
We will be much better placed to answer this question properly for you once we've had a chance to chat together and assess your needs. It's important to bear in mind that each funeral is different, and may have different delivery times. In the meantime, to give you a guideline, we could arrange one of our more personalised funerals in Ayr within fourteen days, but some of our other funerals may require more planning time. We will always do our very best to keep you regularly updated, but if you ever feel that you need a specific update at any point, you are more than welcome to call us.
Concerns about being able to deal with the planning aspect of a sudden funeral are common, and we see it all the time. Please don't worry -- we will not leave you to resolve everything on your own. We have a supportive team of Angels on hand to listen to you, and to take the pressure of organising things off your shoulders. They are experienced, know the right questions to ask, and will be there for you as much or as little as you need. We want you to be able to forget about the administrative stuff, if that's what you need, leaving you free to focus on friends and family.
We provide a nationwide direct cremation service, working with a trusted network of crematoria and care centres across England, Scotland and Wales. While we do serve families in Ayr and the surrounding area, the cremation may not take place locally as part of our standard £1,195 package.
To keep our service simple and affordable, we arrange the cremation based on availability within our wider network. This helps avoid delays and allows us to offer the best possible value.
If it's important for you to choose a specific crematorium, we do offer that option for an additional cost. While we always aim to keep things as close to home as possible, your loved one may be cared for at one of our partner facilities a little further away.
No matter where the cremation takes place, your loved one will be treated with the utmost care, dignity and respect. If you'd like to discuss location options in more detail, our team is here to help.
