Funeral Wakes & Celebrations of Life
If you are looking for a funeral wake or celebration of life in Telford or close to Bridgnorth, here at The Hundred House we understand what a difficult and upsetting time this can be.
A time when care is needed, both to give your loved one a fitting celebration of their life, whilst also sheltering yourself from the stress of organising, staffing and catering for such an event.
Our professional and friendly staff will ensure that all details are taken care of, in beautiful surroundings with delicious homemade food. We have 4 different areas to host in, if you would like to view the different areas in person, in order to choose which one would suit your needs the best, please do give us a call and arrange a viewing. Hire cost includes staffing, use of our decor & centerpieces, cleaning and in the case of the Barn, linen tablecloth’s.
We booked The Hundred House for a Wake and we can 100% recommend it. The Service, Food, Value and Atmosphere were outstanding and holding our gathering there really made our sad day much more bearable.
Their fine attention to detail and genuine desire to make sure that everyone was looked after really was commendable and I would not hesitate to book again for other occasions or a family meal in the future. A+++++ Hundred House – Thank You!!

I just wanted to drop you a note to offer my thanks for the way you organised my wife’s funeral reception.
Everything without fault and first class. There were many compliments about the standard and quality of food provided together with the general service.
May I thank you for making the afternoon go as well as possible. Glyn, June 2024
