Can’t speak highly enough of South West Cremations. I spoke exclusively to Mark, who was a godsend when we needed it most.  He managed to get my husband cremated at Yeovil, everything was timed and executed perfectly, and at a quarter of the price of using any Yeovil based undertaker.  Don’t think twice, use Mark, he will not let you down and won’t rip you off, plus I really believe he took respectful care of my dear husband.

    Mark was very kind and caring in our time of need and nothing was to much trouble, Thank you so much

  • 5 David Chiswell 12th Aug 2024

    I’ve only just remembered to do this but want to say that we received an excellent service fromSWC staff despite making changes at fairly short notice. So much so that we used them again for another cremation of a family member.

  • 5 Mark Page 7th Aug 2024

    South West Cremations made the process simple and straightforward, keeping me updated as the arrangements progressed. Would definitely recommend.

  • 5 Zoey Alvey 26th Jun 2024

    From start to finish Mark and the team have been fantastic at communicating, asking for our families thoughts and wishes etc. We opted for a direct cremation, which was our late Mum's wishes and even though there was no service as such, Oak Funeral personalised the cremation with a flower of our choice which was placed on our Mum's coffin and a song that she would have liked to be played as the coffin was brought into the crematorium. They took care of our beloved Mum with such respect and dignity and Julie was fantastic and preparing us before seeing our Mum in the Chapel of rest.
    The extremely sad and sudden passing of my Mum , was made a little more bearable knowing that she was now in the safe and capable hands of Oak Funeral Service.

    Mark could not have been more helpful and kind. Considering the circumstsnces it was a wonderful service he provided. I would recommend Southwest Cremations to everyone. AMAZING

  • 5 Alexandra Clark 3rd Jun 2024

    Mark, Kat and the team were outstanding.  We always felt that our dad was looked after beautifully, and we were given a lot of support throughout the process.  Thanks also for giving us the opportunity to do our own thing with the videos and orders of service that we created.  Kat’s facilitation and contribution on the day to the service was sensitive, insightful and genuinely emotionally connected to our family.  She helped guide the service expertly and helped add to the meaning of it all. I can only thoroughly recommend Mark, Kat and the team.

    Very professional very respectful and very kind and helpful, i would recommend them thanks for making it less stressful for myself snd family

  • 5 Stuart Dedden 23rd May 2024

    I cannot recommend South West Cremations highly enough.  

    From the initial call, where Gary explained their Direct Cremation service, sensitively, thoroughly and incredibly professionally, to being looked after by Mark, who helped us every step of the way, and ensured that our Uncles wishes were carried out, and any issues we had were sorted promptly. 

    The attention to detail and faultless communication made a very difficult time pass without any stress or pressure. 

  • 4 Kerry Callagham 23rd May 2024

    Gary handled the whole affair with compassion,care, sympathy and good manners. Well done my wife and I are very grateful.

  • 5 Nicola Mergel 23rd May 2024

    Cannot fault this company in any way at all Mark was absolutely brilliant arranging everything for us with such compassion and professionalism. The price we paid for what we got was very surprising in a good way. Highly recommended. Thank you once again.

  • 5 Michael Buck 23rd May 2024

    Highly recommended, brilliant communication kind helpful and sincere, made the whole process simple for me and my family during a very difficult time, thank you for your care and support.

  • 5 Terry Povey 22nd May 2024

    It was all dealt with very professionally and with the minimum of fuss. Mum was a cremation only but was kept informed all the way through the process. It made it all so much easier knowing that this side of mums death was being dealt with so I could concentrate on everything else. Thank you Orlando and your team.

  • 5 Charlotte Barker 22nd May 2024

    Excellent service, dealt with respectfully & efficiently by Orlando and the team. Good value too.

    Would definitely recommend.

  • 5 Kate Hemming 22nd May 2024

    Southwest Cremations offered a friendly, reliable service and Orlando handled all the arrangements with empathy & efficiency which we much appreciated. 

  • 5 Mark Gilks 22nd May 2024

    Excellent service, very efficient at what is always a difficult time. Orlando handled everything for me very compassionately. I spoke to the owner Mark as well. They were both very competent and compassionate. I highly recommend them.

  • 5 Demi Willis 22nd May 2024

    Just the most amazing people I’ve ever talked to so kind and was there 24/7 if I needed anything 
    A big big big thank you to every single one of you 

  • 5 Daniel Mayhew 15th Apr 2024

    Brilliant service provided, help and guidance at every stage and made the whole process so much easier than it might have been. 

  • 5 Tim Weare 6th Mar 2024

    Impeccable from start to finish.  Always there to answer any question and dealt with everything in a professional and considerate kind manner.  Many thanks for making everything easy during this difficult time.

  • 4 Alan Weller 15th Feb 2024

    Good communication and support from Mark

  • 5 Debbie Adams 14th Feb 2024

    Polite, professional and efficient

  • 5 Sarah McMackin 14th Feb 2024

    The service we received right from the very first phone call when dad passed away was exemplary. So professional but caring too.
     Orlando was our main port of contact and he kept in touch all the way through the arrangements, advising when necessary and guiding me through the forms when needed as it was my first experience with arranging a funeral. 
    I chose a direct cremation as that was what dad wanted. Everything was organised so well and I was told when everything would happen and dad’s ashes were hand delivered back to me the day after his cremation. Nick who delivered him back to me was a lovely guy and very professional too. 
    I would not hesitate in using South West Cremations again they took the worry and stress from a difficult occasion and were there every step of the way. 
    Thank you so very much Orlando and South West Cremations x
