Cannot fault the excellent service received, all the employees are lovely, professional while friendly and compassionate. Highly recommend them and especially our director Maxine for making such a sad, difficult time/task easier to deal with.

From the start of the process to the end I was kept informed and was updated regularly upto and as the cremation took place. I would like to thank the staff (Maxine in particular) for their help and support during this difficult time

I would have given 6* if I could. Sarah Miller dealt with my Mothers funeral arrangements, she exceeded my expectations with her kindness. The whole process was carried out offering my Mother the grace and dignity she deserved. Well done.

The service provided for my Dad’s unattended cremation was second to none. From informing them of his death to delivery of his ashes everything was seamless and faultless. With special thanks to Maxine for her compassion and understanding.

The purchase was my brother's choice. He was determined to ensure that his passing and disposal of his remains should not be a burden on his family or friends. From my experiences, he made an excellent choice. From what I gleaned from him, the purchase was straightforward and good economics
