Our funeral director, David & all of the team at Gilpin Lodge are the most empathetic, considerate & helpful people, whilst still maintaining a superb standard of professionalism. Unfortunately this is the second family funeral I have had to arrange within the past six months & I can not thank them enough for their support during both. I would not hesitate in recommending them, as both funerals were conducted with such care & attention. Even at this difficult time, with all the restrictions, both funerals felt very personal to all our family.
