Welcome

A family caring for families

With over 45 years' experience, we believe we can give the best possible advice, help and assistance during what is a very stressful and difficult time. A funeral should be about choices — for you and your family — and we will guide and support you through every one of them, from the moment you make contact with us.

“We take great pride in the fact that most of our funerals come by recommendation from families and friends.”

Personal & Compassionate

Every family is unique. We listen carefully and arrange a service that truly reflects the life of your loved one.

Independent & Family Run

We are a small, independent firm — when you call, you speak directly with Simon or Kim, never a call centre.

A Full Range of Choices

Burial, cremation, traditional, eco-friendly and green funerals — arranged with the same care and clarity.
