Trusted by families in Stonehaven

Rated 4.9 / 5 based on 10 reviews.

Rated 5/5

The loss of a loved one is obviously never easy, in this instance my mother. However the service supplied by G+W at Stonehaven was second to none.

Michelle there was very knowledgeable, helpful and professional.

Susan who conducted the actual funeral proceedings/service was amazing too.

We were kept informed of everything from start to finish and the arrangements were made with the minimum fuss and distress to the family.

The wee Parlor there is lovely as was the viewing room where mum laid at rest for a few days before the funeral. A special word must go to the staff who prepared mum, what a fantastic job the did on her. Although she was 92 when she passed, they took 30 years off her and she looked how we'd like to remember her in her prime.

A heart felt thanks go from myself, my wife Yvonne, my brother Ian and his wife Debbie and all family and friends in attendance for a truly touching, kind and meaningful, under the circumstances, experience.

Setting up the plan was easy but we were supposed to be informed when the cremation would take place- we weren't. Also still waiting to be able to collect the ashes [ 11 days after the cremation]. However- would still recommend - mostly efficient and kind!

From our first phone call to collecting my wife's ashes my family and I appreciated all the help, kindness and friendly way everything was explained and organised.
