A big thanks to Diane and Michael for guiding me through what was a difficult time. The support they gave me was tremendously helpful.
The  service received from all at Peter Barnes , both before and at the funeral was nothing but professional. The warmth  shown to all of us and the help given to the family members  who wished to be pallbearers  was so much appreciated. I cannot thank you enough for everything you’ve done. I can highly recommend the team at Peter Barnes.

We decided to go with Peter Barnes after recommendations from family members. We are so glad we did as Diane Michael Stacey & Craig went above and beyond as did the pall bearers.
Everything we required was accommodated with great compassion from all and we couldn't of asked for the day to of gone any better as so much effort went into everything they did

I went to a funeral today, and was so impressed with the help I received.  I bought my friend in a wheelchair,  and just I was about to push her, one of Bearers, appeared, and offered to help. He wheeled my friend all the way into church, and found us a seats. I was very grateful, that the team, went the extra mile. Great service.
Thank you.

Having attended a number of funerals of friends and neighbours in recent years, one business always impressed me in terms of it's professionalism and so when advised by my late mother's doctor that at 101, the end was nigh, I gave them a call. It was answered by Diane and I was immediately given assurance that when the inevitable happened Peter Barnes would  take care of everything. That is exactly what happened, quietly, calmly, efficiently and with utmost dignity, Diane and Michael made all the arrangements. We did have some challenges which included a worrying delay in obtaining the death certificate due to a procedural error on behalf of the local surgery, which took us right to the deadline. We were even  delayed on route to the crematorium by a road closure due to an accident so mum ended up being late for her own funeral, but nothing phased the team at Peter Barnes and I have nothing but praise for this excellent local business

Good afternoon Alistair. Thank you so much for your very kind words, which I will pass on to the rest of the team. It was our pleasure to have been of help to you at such a difficult time. So pleased that everything turned out ok on the day, as as you say we did have a few little bumps along the way & you had to deal with a lot of unnecessary stress, including the accident on the day & time of Mum's funeral. THANK YOU for being so understanding.

After my partners father died in South Africa and with having no joy getting  him repatriated ourselves I contacted Peter barnes funeral services and spoke to Diane . She couldn’t have been more helpful and with in 2 weeks we had him back home with us . On collecting  him from the funeral parlour he was treated with dignity and respect and the service we received went above and beyond we as a family would like to express our gratitude and thank Diane and the staff for being so helpful, thoughtful and efficient we would highly recommend there services .

The expertise was all we could ask for  from my first call to notify them of my husbands death  to picking up my husband’s ashes  was an experience that I didn’t  expect.  I was treated with compassion at all times  and they didn’t mind how ever many times I contacted them .  Nothing was to much trouble I had several questions that was all answered professionally.   I do believe that Diane and her staff did everything they could durning my difficult time in fact they went the extra mile mile to make sure everything was as we wanted. I would recommend them 100%
