Excellent services and very helpful 

Katie Louise Norman 9th Dec 2016

The price is very expensive so that has a lot to do with the review. Caroline was absolutely fantastic and did all she could to help us and talk to us she was absolutely fantastic. There was a couple of errors but they have sorted this quite fast and efficient

Than you for taking away the stress and making Hazel's funeral a lovely service

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for you very kind words about the way you were looked after fantastically by Caroline. We are however disappointed to see that there were a couple of errors with the funeral and although these were addressed straight away for you we are sorry that they ever arose. We also note your comment that your three star rating of our service was predominantly determined by the fact you found us to be expensive. We do not aim to be the cheapest, but we do aim to offer a service of the highest quality at a competitive price and so are disappointed that you did not feel that we achieved this. If you would like to discuss anything further please do not hesitiate to contact either the Bulwell office or myself. Thank you
