"Beautiful, peaceful & comfortable place to visit your loved ones who have sadly gone on before us"
The Northern Memorial Park is a beautiful place and it's where our kind, generous, loving Auntie has been laid to rest. The place is huge and has a peaceful atmosphere and gorgeous fresh air with many lovely trees. You can sit, relax on the thick grass and meditate. As you centre yourself, the calm quiet surrounding area envelops you to free your feelings and connect to your love ones, this is what makes the Northern Memorial Park so special. However, if you never been there before there's a good chance you'll get lost. It's not hard to lose your way with all the roundabouts there. As you drive off the first thing you will notice is the lack of street signs, there aren't any. Some people don't like them, but it's not just street signs, they need to have some signs saying "Rest Rooms 200M", & "Function Centre this way". We couldn't find the Function Centre because we don't know our way round, moreover, their expanding the Park all the time with more roads & roundabouts. We needed to use the toilet and the Function Centre has the best Public Toilets I have ever seen, new, modern and very clean! By the way, the Function Centre is excellent, we had refreshments, the staff were great!, the Food & Drinks were also great, Recommended.
Thank you to the lovely staff in the Customer Care Dept who took my call regarding my concern about vandalism in the cemetery. I regretted not taking his name down. I made the call today, Thursday 19th August at about 12:30pm. He was very polite, very assuring & very helpful & provided me with information that was helpful & assuring. I am so grateful to that staff as I was worried about my late father’s resting place there as I’ve not been able to visit since this Lockdown. Thank you also to this memorial park for keeping the place so immaculate & well looked after. I value your good work! God bless you all!
On the positive, the place is peaceful, the flora and fauna are maintained and it’s nice to go for a walk or for some alone time. Clean overall and staff are lovely. On the down side, it’s easy to get lost if you aren’t a regular, speed humps are a little too high, signage would help, people using the toilets should be respectful and use the bathrooms properly and not use the floor, tree branches that fall I’ve had to pull off the road/carpark and into the landstrips. People with loud music playing while in cemetery is a little much. Overall I love it here to meditate, exercise walk, grieve and be alone.

Beautiful, peaceful & comfortable place to visit your loved ones who have sadly gone on before us. The open tranquillity & the sounds of nature all around the open space helps to set the mood to your heavy heart to receive healing as you allow God to minister to your faith.
Dog-friendliness
Wonderful place to bring your dog along with you & take him for a casual stroll afterwards
This cemetery is generally well maintained, the lawns could be cut on a regular basis as they tend to become overgrown. The toilet block in the entry driveway needs to be cleaned properly, a wipe over with a mop is not good enough. Deodorising blocks are needed & attention to detail. The cleaners do not give the impression of being anywhere near "professional".
For a cemetery its a nice place. Well maintained gardens. Peaceful surroundings and the new cafe is a nice touch in completing the cemetery. Convenient to stop at when you go there for a cuppa or to even consider having a wake held there. I attended a wake there and it was very nice. Added to a pleasant send off. Very clean toilets and easy access is a bonus.
We attended a funeral this morning. Everything was done with professionalism from the indoor service to the graveside and the catering after the service. The only difficulty was lack of signage to direct to the chapels. Perhaps a directional map on the web page would be helpful. Some more signs throughout this extensive cemetary grounds would be helpful.
Imagine if there was a turning bay for cars to enter site from box forest road. Traffic backs up onto Sydney rd, well back to the Krispy Kreme when there is something happening in the memorial park. Took me 25 minutes just to get from Krispy Kreme, to the first roundabout on box forest road. An absolute joke
Lawn plaque area is maintained very well in the new area, really happy with dad being there, but toilets were locked up on Sunday one of the busiest days of the week. Very difficult for my elderly mum to see her husband and not have open facilities to visit. Very disappointing.
Like to express a huge thank you to Simone who went out of her way to make us happy. We have been through a rough time the last few months and Simone went above and beyond for us. We cannot thank you enough, easy to talk to, professional and very friendly. Many thanks …
I've seen nany more buriels since my Father's passing. I know those passed as well as those visiting loved ones would welcome more trees, plants, environmentally sound aesthetics, benches - I certainly would. There's a very big difference
it was very disappointing that for the Christmas period when many people would be visiting their loved one lost, are confronted with unkempt lawns. The lawns haven't been attended to for at least a fortnight and are long and untidy.
A fitting final address for many. Long roads framed by trees and a centre where functions can be held and big enough that you are set back from the hustle and bustle outside. I farewelled a friend here... I think he'd approve.
Not very good for parking although parking is on the side of the road. No parking bays, just park on the side of the road Couldn't find a public toilet! Not even a sign sayimg if there was a toilet or anything Cafe wasn't open
Big place for burial cemetery get a detailed map of place cos one can easily get lost finding ...good thing section are coloured line like your in Europe getting different lines to different destination..this helps a little
very nice off roading tracks, the hight and frequency of the speed bumps make it a moderate challenge if you dont have a 4wd. it's busy on religiously significant days and the rest of the time its pretty dead.
We went to the reception after a funeral. Nice meet up after a sad day saying goodbye to someone dear for good! That’s why it’s important to be good to those you like or those you can learn from.
Well landscaped Cemetery. Recommended. On special days (Christmas etc) you just about need traffic lights ..it's heart warming (and sad) to see so many people visiting loved ones.
Not sure how many stars I can give a cemetery… it’s as nice as it can be given the subject matter. Car parking spaces are tight given a lot of the visitors are elderly…
A family friend passed and the ladies from le pine were absolutely amazing Their customer service and interaction was so heart warming and professional God bless them
Last visit prior to this one was in the 1960's. It was pretty much barren land then,it has been transformed into a pleasant parkland to visit the departed. More
Despite of the fact that our loved ones are there and not with us anymore,I wiped my tears away thinking that one day we we I'll together again
Whilst sad occasions - it's nice to have a peaceful place that's well maintained and has a reception hall with split rooms for multiple events.
They keep the grounds very clean and tidy. And the office staff are very helpful and the flower shop have some lovely flowers.
Park is always kept to a high standard of cleanliness and is a very easy going place that is hard to achieve with cemeteries
It was a very nice place but it is hard to give a comment about a place when you are there to lay someone to reast rip mum
Can we please put up no smoking signage around the cemetery.. and no littering signage.. and no alcohol signs.. thank you
A beautiful place for our family members to rest in peace. Thank you to RSV LIMOUSINES for looking after us on the day.
Dad rest in Heaven very Nice cemetery clean when there is no winds but above all very quite place.. …
This is the beginning of the real life. Its NOT final destination as many of us think. Parking is very poor
There is no playground as there are lots of loved ones' graves.
Dog-friendliness
Dogs are on leah
As far as cemetery goes it’s very organised and clean , well maintained grounds and easy to get around .
Hard to review a place like this, but it's a respectful place for your loved ones' final resting place.
Not the best place to visit because my godmother has passed but the memorial park was really awesome
Very peaceful, except for people that drive on the footpath between graves, very inconsiderate.
Covers all esentials very well. Easy to find, free parking available, well run and maintained.
We would all prefer not to be here but the6do a good job We spotted a kangaroo in the new area
This wich my love daughter Runya ibraheim rest in peace since she died on 4th of July 2015
