    Everything went very smoothly and the team looking after us couldn't do enough. Made a tough day a little easier. Thank you

  • 5 Robert Craft 30th Sep 2024

    Right from the start, the service from the whole team was sympathetic, understanding and above all caring for all involved. They thoroughly explained all the steps we would have to take and took the time to make sure we knew what we needed to do. 
    Nothing was too much trouble trying to help us come up with all the arrangements we wanted.
    The chapel of rest is a calm place to say goodbye to someone in peace. Especially helpful when some passes away in hospital it can be nice to say goodbye in a more peaceful way. 
    The day of the funeral all the contact was clear and calm and the day went as well as it could. 
    A big thank you for us for giving our loved one a special farewell.
