Irene and Liam were exceptional in their advice, kind understanding. They made the whole "process" easier to deal with at a very difficult time. Moreover, their costs were easy to understand and extremely good value for money. Colin Yule

I found both Liam and his mum not only professional but kind and empathic, lovely people. I liked them both straight away and I trusted them to look after my mum. When she was in their care they were kind enough to follow my wishes of not covering her face and keeping a light on. Their embalmer made my mum look like the mum I knew and at peace. They were able to help with finding a priest free to perform a Requiem mass and organised the crematorium. They guided me and facilitated  everything. We wanted it all done within the week and they made that happen. They made the whole experience from the moment I phoned them to the end, stress free. My brother and I are truly grateful for their kindness and human approach to a sad occasion. We couldn’t have asked for a better service and would highly recommend Mitchells. Thank you. .

Outstanding, caring and compassionate service received by Mitchells Funeral Directors.  I can honestly say after having arranging funerals in the past, Mitchells far surpassed the others. From my first initial call to Irene, her guidance and advice showed genuine caring and kindness. Liam was very thoughtful and nothing was too much trouble.  They made a very difficult time all the easier and I truly appreciated this.  I would have no hesitation in recommending them, simply the best.

    Not having any experience in arranging a funeral I was worried about not knowing what was required of me, Mitchells Funeral Directors however were excellent in helping with advice on every stage. I highly recommend them for the amazing service they helped to create for my Dad.

  • 5 Suzanne Cullen 7th May 2019

    I would highly recommend Mitchell's funeral services          

    In particular, we would take the opportunity of thanking Donna Ball (celebrant) Liam Irene and all at Mitchell’s Funeral Services for the way in which they dealt with George and the family throughout the process and subsequent service.




    Together they turned a tragic and heartbreaking event into a bearable event, and a celebration of a  life characterised by love, wit, humour and a sense of devilment.




    They presented themselves throughout as the Consummate professionals, whilst providing emotional and practical support to anyone whom required it.  For this the family is,and shall remain, eternally grateful.  Rarely do you receive such a service where the providers present themselves in a non judgemental, compassionate and empathetic fashion. From the bottom of our hearts we thank you.

  • 5 Watt Nicoll 30th Apr 2019

    Friendly, understanding, sensitive and efficient - Thank You

  • 5 Alexandra Brickell 28th Feb 2019

    We highly recommend Mitchell’s Funeral Directors after the service they provided for my dad’s farewell. They listened and respected our wishes which ultimately came from my dad before he passed. They were very considerate and very professional. They really do mean what they say in their brochure and they made the process a lot easier than we anticipated. We want to thank Liam, Irene, Mike & also Donna, who did a fantastic job helping everyone at the funeral get to know my dad and celebrate his life.

  • 5 Donna Ball 4th Feb 2019

    A remarkable service, i cannot stress how much your amazing services helped us at a very difficult time. John got an amazing send off. We are no strangers to funeral planning and I can say there is no way we will be using any other funeral director. Perfect service at an unbeatable cost Mitchell's should be everyone's 1st choice.

  • 5 Jamie Greig 15th Jan 2019

    From the very first phone call, we received a first class service.
    Irene and Liam were both helpful and friendly and so considerate of our circumstances and explained everything fully to us. They took charge of the whole process but at the same time included us and communicated with us at every step. They met all our wishes for the funeral.
    All costs were discussed at the start and there were no hidden surprises. The funeral costs were the cheapest  we had been quoted (around £2,000 cheaper!) and they offered the same package as other funeral directors.
    Donna the humanist, created a lovely reading that captured our Dad perfectly. 
    We cannot thank them all enough for arranging such a special funeral for our dear beloved dad.

  • 5 Pamela Downey 11th Jan 2019

    I would highly recommend Michell’s. We have used their services twice last year and we treated so well, the whole team made such a horrible time bearable and nothing was too much for them. 
    Liam is a pleasure to deal with, so friendly whilst remaining highly professional and respectful 

  • 5 Thomas Walker 11th Jan 2019

    Liam, and family gave a first rate service at a very difficult time, going out of their way to make sure things ran as smoothly as possible. The communication was first rate and all costs transparent from the outset. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. 

  • 5 Lynne Douglas 10th Jan 2019

    My family decided to use Mitchell's Funeral Directors when my grandmother passed away. The service they provide is without fault, the attention to detail impeccable and the care shown to our family will never be forgotten. They made a very difficult and emotional time that bit easier. Nothing was too much to ask and they continued communication throughout the entire process. Their prices also deserve a mention, they are very transparent, every charge is explained and the price we received at our initial meeting did not change, no extra charges. Prices are extremely fair without sacrificing any levels of service. An exceptionaly well run, caring company who i would have no hesitation in recommending to others.
