My mother's funeral was a celebration of her long life. Breckland Funeralcare provided excellent guidance throughout the planning stage, and managed it all perfectly. The ceremony was flawless from start to finish. My mother would have been proud.

From the moment Dad was collected right through to after the funeral we have had a warm, comforting experience. They showed respect to Dad throughout and enabled everything that we wanted to make the day special for us all. We were treated in such a kind, comforting and professional manner making us feel at ease at all times. We were happy for Dad to be under their care. Thank you

    From the moment my Dad, Dennis, was collected from his home, to the time his ashes were collected, he was treated with the utmost respect by Howard and his wonderful team. The whole process of organising the farewell to a very much loved family member, was sensitively planned between all who took part.
    A massive thank you to one and all.

  • 5 Leslie Burdett 5th Feb 2024

    From the moment we arrived at Breckland Funeralcare, to the moment we stepped out of the limo at the wake, everything was perfect, compassionate, dignified, respectful, caring, professional. I hope they get to do my funeral too, but not for a while!

  • 5 James Atkinson 29th Jan 2024

    I am so happy with the care, compassion and lovely support me and my family received from Breckland funeral care. I wouldn't choose anywhere else then Breckland.

  • 5 Patricia Day 22nd Jan 2024

    Everyone was so helpful and caring. Could not fault the service we recieved.
    I would highly recommend this company.

  • 5 Andrew Woollven 2nd Jan 2024

    Theirs only so many words I can write but what an amazing company you are. My mum got the best send off and the respect that she deserved in her final days on earth. The staff were amazing especially Jade who was absolutely amazing and a credit to your company. Howard would always check in on me to make sure I was ok and for a general chat and that sets this place apart. One thing for sure when my times up I know who I’ll be going with(or should I say my family) as the co-op was great and all staff we encountered was just amazing and friendly. One last thing is THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart

    Breckland Funercare Watton were brilliant in taking care of all of the funeral arrangements for my mum (as they were for my dad earlier this year). They take the worry away at a very difficult time. Nothing is too much trouble for them, they are very supportive.

    Howard and his team looked after us extremely well and supported us through each step ,making it as painless as it could be. I have already reccommended them to friends and all i can say is without their help and support would definitely not have coped and dad would not have had the send off he deserved!!

  • 5 Paul Horton 23rd Feb 2023

    We cannot thank Elaine and Howard enough for what they did for me and my Dad. They were incredibly caring, very professional, though also very sensitive about all aspects of my Mum's funeral. They took the time to ensure we were ok, even calling just to check we were ok and asking after our wellbeing. Everything for my Mum's funeral was handled with care and kindness. I would recommend their services to everyone. Again, thank you so much.
