A very easy, convenient and professional service. Consistency of information passed to the office was lacking though, as personnel appeared to be changing frequently.

Meghan was incredibly supportive from the moment we spoke.

A calm and knowledgeable haven at a very difficult time. Thank you.

    I couldn’t have asked for a better service, Megan and the team were all so helpful and knowledgeable, my mum was respected and so were all my wishes and you can’t ask for more than that. Thankyou.

  • 5 Mary Scales 19th Feb 2024

    A well used funeral parlour. Very happy with the service having never had to arrange a funeral before. If I have anything to add it would too be absolutely clear at the outset what's needed to finalise the order of service.
    We spent too much time trying to input the information ourselves when we needn't have. All we needed to do was record page by page what was required, email and the company  do the rest.
    It’s a very upsetting stressful time so difficult to see a way forward clearly. 
    All in all very happy.
