Tess Gale 31st Jul 2022

Mark Robson and his team did the most wonderful job for us. Due to the particularly tragic circumstances, the family were deeply distressed and I cannot thank Mark enough for his sensitivity and professionalism. I couldn't have asked for a more special service that truly reflected my son's life and Mark made it happen exactly as I had hoped.

Nice send off for our brother. Thank you

  • 5 Lisa Gibbs 22nd Jul 2022

  • 5 Susanna Pinnock 9th May 2022

    Just could not have been better. Mark was immensely supportive, helpful and patient all the way through. Everything was perfectly organised, and went like clockwork. We had a lovely service, very beautiful and dignified and everyone who came said how moving and perfect it was. Would recommend without hesitation, really excellent. Thank you, Mark.

  • 5 Lucy Dorrell 4th Apr 2022

    Robson and Stephens went above and beyond.

  • 5 Caroline Connor 12th Mar 2022

    My father recently passed and had purchased a funeral plan with Robson & Stephens. From the initial meeting Mark and Orlando's guidance and compassion has been first class. No matter what time of the day or night I had a contact so if I had any questions they would be answered. We choose to hold the service at the funeral directors, there was around 26 of us. Orlando led this and added a few finising touches we did not know of which made us smile and were personal to Dad. A moving and touching service was given and I cannot thank Orlando and Marie enough, my dad would have been honoured.

  • 5 Heather Coonick 11th Mar 2022

    From my first contact Mark was excellent.  He communicated via WhatsApp as that's what I preferred, made sure I knew exactly what was happening and organised everything exactly as I asked.  We just missed the February storms but he checked on the Sunday that we were happy to go ahead the next day with the weather being so bad.  Our vicar was also impressed with him.  The bearers were smart and polite, the hearse spotless despite the weather. Thank you

  • 5 Martin Dunn 19th Feb 2022

    Helped us through everything in a difficult time

  • 5 Jo Storey 15th Feb 2022

    Marie, Gary and all the team go above and beyond with a very professional and personal touch. Attention to detail is amazing and we can’t thank them all enough for their kindness shown to us all at a very difficult time. Would highly recommend.

  • 5 Victoria James 13th Feb 2022

    Mark was friendly and helpful, made all our wishes come true. I would highly recommend. A throughly professional service.

  • 5 Ben Horrobin 6th Feb 2022

    The death of a loved one is a painful experience. Mark guided us through such a sad time with empathy and great professionalism. This gave us the strength we needed. I highly recommend him. Everything was perfect for my beloved . 

  • 5 Andrew Moore 4th Feb 2022

    Mark and his team were so professional and caring. The service room was perfect for the occasion as was the catering. It made it possible for the family to chat together without having to make way for the next funeral and the provision of the webcam enabled others to view from as far away as America. I could not have asked for more.

  • 5 Heather Brelsford 2nd Feb 2022

    Mark couldn't have been more helpful with all the arrangements at this very stressful time. He booked everything for us, including the celebrant, flowers, etc. We chose to use the room they have at the Funeral Director's, which was ideal for our requirements. I can't recommend them high enough and state again that the support offered during this period was excemplary.

  • 5 Jane Smith 30th Jan 2022

    There are no words to describe the wonderful support and care from Mark Robson for my mother's celebration and cremation . He was supportive in every way . Orlando and Marie thank you for your input also
    On behalf of all the family thank you for being there and helping us through this sad time

  • 5 John Esplen 25th Jan 2022

    A first class service from start to finish. Our mother's funeral had unforseen complications, but Mark and his team guided us through the difficult process with professionalism and care ensuring the process was as stress-free and smooth as possible.

    At all times we felt we were in safe hands which was very reassuring. I really can't thank Mark and his team enough or recommend his service too highly.

  • 5 Kate Howard 16th Nov 2021

    Very professional, but also very personal and compassionate. Could not fault them. Made the whole process very smooth and as little stress as possible. Thank you so much, Mark and team!

  • 5 Ben Rogers 27th Oct 2021

    Robson & Stephens were absolutely wonderful from the very first phone call, right up to the funeral service itself. Mark had the utmost compassion and sympathy for us all as a family, when dealing with the sad passing of my Dad and the grief that came with it. With my sister in New Zealand and unable to attend the service in person, Mark ensured she was part of the funeral arrangements from the very beginning. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he always put us at ease with his charming personality, which in very difficult circumstances can be a real comfort. I would not hesitate in recommending Mark and his team at Robson & Stephens, they were first class and very professional.

  • 5 Emma Turner 18th Oct 2021

    You have been amazing from start to finish. We couldn’t have had more support and felt more cared about. You went above and beyond and enabled us to say goodbye in a way that was most fitting allowing us to do all we wanted in the right way. The extra little touches were perfect it was as though you knew Michael as much as we did. Thank you from us all x

  • 5 Charlan Williams 6th Oct 2021

    Mark and Marie did my mum so proud. The stress and worry of organising everything was taken out of all my family’s hands. The service was perfect. Attention to detail was amazing and the care went above and beyond for my dad, my sister, myself and the children. Most importantly I knew my mum was well cared for and in the safest hands. Thank you all so much and to everyone behind the scenes. 

  • 5 Alice Cribbon 6th Oct 2021

    Has handled my husband and brother in laws cremations amazingly made everything easy and has been a fantastic support. Nothing is to much to ask for with them. Highly recommend.

  • 5 Brian Bartlett 27th Sep 2021

    Mark' approach I found very helpful. The arrangements, originally clearly explained by Mark, overall went smoothly, and Mark's attentiveness, particularly over the memorial stone, was much appreciated.

  • 5 Stevie Cutler 15th Sep 2021

    We found Mark very supportive throughout this difficult period, your thinking process is muddled by grief and Mark helps to lead you in the right direction, I was pleasantly surprised with the reasonable cost of the whole funeral, I have no reservation recommending this funeral directors to anyone who desires a personal and professional service.

  • 5 David Goodfellow 13th Sep 2021

    Mark and his team at Robson & Stephens (Minehead) were absolutely wonderful in providing the arrangements for my late mother's funeral. Mark was sensitive but at the same time helpful and efficient; he took care of literally everything (right down to the in-house catering for the wake/reception after the funeral service) from the moment I first spoke to him on the phone. I have no hesitation in recommending Mark and his team at Robson & Stephens.
