The first funeral directors in town, we have been providing funeral care to the community since the 1930s. The knowledge passed down over this time informs everything we do and allows us to ensure that your loved one’s funeral is of the highest standard, while you are treated with sympathy and respect from the moment you call.

We offer a better quality of care when you need it the most, giving you everything from emotional support to guidance on matters you may be unfamiliar with.

By listening to you and what your wishes for the funeral are, we will make sure the ceremony meets your expectations. That is our promise, whether it is a religious or non-religious service, something traditional or a funeral more contemporary in nature.

Our distinctive-looking funeral home (formerly a Methodist Hall) can be found on the Old Milton Road, a location that makes us easily accessible to all parts of New Milton, along with neighbouring villages such as Barton on Sea, Bransgore, Hordle and Sway.

Hadrian at Moodys in New Milton organised my wife’s funeral and removed all my worries at a stressful time. He recommended a celebrant, florist and a venue for the wake and all proved to be excellent choices.
I could not have received better service and would certainly recommend Moodys to others.
Response from Moodys Funeral Directors
I am happy to hear that we were able to help ease any worries that you may have had. It is always good to hear that individual members of our team have provided a service to you to the best of their ability. Thank you for this recommendation.

From the outset Moodys treated us with respect and dignity in determining the families wishes in our bereavement. We were given clear guidance on services/options available and made aware of the various support at hand to make the service run smoothly. Hadrian was very personable in dealing with each member of our family and gave superb guidance in a number of areas. His guidance, manner, and advice was invaluable at a very distressing time. His suggested choice of celebrant was also perfect. The day went as smoothly as possible and the family will always be grateful for the pre-service guidance, perfect arrangements on a very difficult day. We received lots of nice feedback from friends and relatives that attended the cremation service, they also felt it was very fitting and appropriate. Thank you Moodys and Hadrian.

We very much appreciated the diligent, professional, effective, courteous and kind assistance we experienced from Hadrian who organised our mother's funeral, and from Paul and all his team who attended on the day. I know only too well that emails are so rarely fully absorbed and all the questions logically answered, so it was extremely reassuring to confirm that at Moodys the approach was different. (Patricia had been so helpful when our father died 15 years ago.) Mum's own administrative standards were famously very high and she would certainly have approved of the way Hadrian co-ordinated the details. Thank you all.

Hadrian couldn't have been more accommodating, I recall him even listening to the chosen recording of Amazing Grace over the phone to make sure it was exactly the right version. Always proactive and well ahead of what I was about to be worried about. The funeral itself went very well indeed with an immaculate turn out of hearse and attendants, beautifully prepared orders of service, and a good flowers. His advice and guidance on what was appropriate in lock down has proven absolutely correct and I have had a number of relatives and friends say how nice the service was, even by those who attended by webcast. Thanks from the family to all concerned.
Response from Moodys Funeral Directors

Wonderful service from when we first picked up the phone, somewhat in a state of shock, to make the initial call, to when the service was completed. Every staff member that we interacted with, put us at ease and guided us painlessly through the process. You should all be very proud of your professionalism.

All dealings I had with your New Milton office were excellent, and all requirements were dealt with in an efficient manner. However it appeared that the gentleman from your other office, who arranged the procedure at the Crematorium, had not communicated with your New Milton office to check on the exact requirements of the service.

This is a terrible time for anyone, but the staff at the New Milton branch could not have been more supportive and helpful. Hadrian provides guidance for every aspect of what has to be done and who to contact following a death, and talks you through and provides advice from a wealth of experience regarding the funeral arrangements. He is like the best private secretary ever and makes the unbearable survivable. Chris attended my Mother's cremation and once he heard that she was a Liverpool supporter and would have the Kop anthem played, volunteered to wear a red tie for her. I cannot thank these gentlemen enough for the little kindnesses that they provided.

My parents chose their own funeral arrangements and I thank them too because it removed traumatic decisions at the worst of times. Moodys made this possible and honoured everything they had requested.

The Funeral Director, Hadrian Whiskin, was caring and compassionate throughout the whole process of organising Nan’s service.
Although Nan already had a funeral plan in place, Hadrian took no less time with us when discussing exactly what we wanted on the day. Upon Hadrian’s recommendation we used a gentleman called David to conduct the actual service - he was just perfect - Hadrian took the time to ask about Nan and the type of person she would warm to - he couldn’t have picked a better person in David!
The service itself was just what we wanted - lovely balance between remembering Nan and giving thanks for the 95 years she was here. All the gentlemen assisting with the service on the day, from the driver to those who carried Nan in, were polite and compassionate and showed her their utmost respect throughout. We weren’t rushed at all on the day - it was nice to be given the opportunity to say our own personal goodbyes to Nan without being hounded to leave.
My utmost thanks to Hadrian and the team at Moody’s in New Milton for making what was a particularly difficult day as compassionate as they did. They truly did my Nan proud.
