How much will a funeral cost?

Nick and David are keen that a dignified funeral can also be an affordable one. On this page we give you an idea of what the funeral will cost. No two people are the same so we also offer a bespoke service. You may want a different style coffin, maybe cardboard, bamboo, a picture coffin or solid wood. It may be that you want a horse drawn hearse, a VW hearse a motorbike hearse or even a woodland burial. Please feel free to contact us and discuss the options available to tailor the service to suit the wishes of your loved one. We will provide you with a clear estimate for your peace of mind.
