I just wanted to say how pleased we were with the way my father’s funeral went on Monday. Neil could not have been nicer to our family and everything he did from the first moment was kind and helpful. Every detail was attended to and explained to us. We highly recommend George Scott.

We can’t thank Neil at George Scott Funeral Services enough. The support provided during the process to bring all of the elements of the service together was incredible. Very understanding and quick to arrange the service, providing guidance throughout the process on the key elements. The support offered on the day was top class during a very tricky moment for the family and the George Scott team provided an exemplary service for the day.

I can't thank Neil and the staff at George Scott Funeral Services enough for what they have done for caring for my mum to the service. This is the second funeral in 4 months the have looked after me,
with everything into there hands and took the pressure off me and the family. I couldn't recommend them enough.

Neil and the rest of the team supported my family wonderfully through an incredibly difficult time. The regular, kind and clear support is hugely appreciated.
They talked us through things at a pace right for us, provided lots of choices and ideas, and helped us with a beautiful service for my mum.

We approached George Scott Funeral Home following the loss of my mum's beloved husband and our stepdad. During this difficult time each member of George Scott were extremely respectful and supportive - they are a family run business with a very personal touch. They provided all the information we needed and were prompt with all visits and correspondence. My family has had previous experience with the funeral home and we would not hesitate to use them again. Thank you guys for making an extremely difficult time that bit easier and ensuring our goodbye was personal and thoughtful. Xx

We could not have asked for any one
better to look after our Precious Mum and
Dad.
With their valuable support, help and
guidance Mum had the most perfect,
beautiful day on Saturday.
Nothing was too much. Their care, advice
and Professionalism we will never forget.
I can't recommend George Scott funeral
service highly enough.
There is no one better to look after you as
a family and the precious love one you
have lost.
Thank you Eden, Neil, Fenton, Andrea and
your amazing team.
Eden you are beyond amazing at your job.

As a business and family we have been using George Scott for over 30 years, most recently for the loss of my mum. Neil and his team provided exceptional support , care and guidance when i needed it, this was a great comfort to me. Thank you!
Before the funeral i met with Neils sons Eden and Fenton who were going to be leading the procession, both showed empathy and professionalism and were very competent, making the day go smoothly. Thank you for your kindness and compassion shown to me and my family.
My heartfelt thanks to everyone at George Scott for making mums funeral so special.

We recently had our Mum's funeral arranged through Neil at George Scott Funeral Services. They arranged our Dad's funeral too 12 years ago and we had no hesitation in going back to them. From the beginning of the process to the very end, they were professional down to the finest detail, extremely respectful and sensitive to the situation. They helped to make it a beautiful day for our Mum, which was so very comforting for us all.

When your loved ones pass away, you want to be assured that everything is taken care of professionally, and with compassion. George Scott & Sons Funeral Services do exactly that. They explained very clearly all the arrangements and costs, and simply put, could not have done anything more to make this painful experience as smooth as possible. A long established family firm, I believe they offer that personal touch backed up with decades of experience, that other more corporate Funeral Service providers cannot match.
I would have no hesitation in recommending them wholeheartedly to anyone requiring professional funeral service directors.

Neil, Andrea and their sons Eden and Fenton were all so helpful, caring and warm following the sudden death of my partner.

From the moment of my initial call to his visit to my home the following morning, I knew that I was in safe hands with Neil.

Neil was wonderful, explained everything so calmly and clearly and the arrangements were flawless.

Noel was kept in their beautiful Chapel of Rest and he looked so beautiful and serene. He was dressed exactly as I had requested, and the tea lights which I had given them were placed around him in his coffin. I was allowed to visit daily and for this I am so immensely grateful.

I cannot thank them enough for helping to make the day of Noel's Funeral so wonderful in such traumatic circumstances, and I would not hesitate to recommend their wonderful services.

I lost my mother in September and George Scott Funerals were recommended to me through a family member, I am so happy that I acted on this recommendation, from the moment of my mum's passing they took care of everything to make the whole process seamless with respect, humility and dignity organising all of the necessary components that are necessary along the way, offering advice and keeping me informed and finally on the day of my mum's funeral undertaking their work with professionalism and respect that you would expect from an undertaker.

I honestly cannot rate George Scott's Funeral Service highly enough. I have used them twice now; the first time we had Neil and the service was impeccable from start to finish. A funeral director's job is to keep behind the scenes, behind the scenes, so the family don't need to worry about anything. Neil did all that, but so much more; he displayed such kindness, sensitivity and impeccable attention to detail. A weight lifted off your shoulders at the most distressing of times.
I have just used George Scott's again for my Dad's funeral, and received the same impeccable service from the outset. From the minute I made that first phone call, Neil took all the worries about the funeral away, and again, he went above and beyond to help. He thinks of things you haven't thought of, he exhibits endless patience when you've asked the same question ten times, and he cares about the service in a way that is beyond reproach. The royal family themselves could not ask for more!
On this occasion Neil was in demand already on the only date we were all available, so we had Neil's son , Eden. And what a credit to the company he is! We had family bearers for this burial, all of whom were very nervous, and Eden was amazing. He put everybody at ease, while being in control at all times. It's not an easy thing to lower a coffin of your loved one 9 feet into the ground, but Eden was in charge every step of the way, instructing everybody in such a gentle, kind way. He was there directing proceedings at every step so we didn't need to worry about anything, anticipating all our needs, and questions. But during the service when we were all emotional and crying, he was there, but almost invisible so as not to be intrusive at such a personal time. I cannot praise him highly enough.
Everybody at George Scott's goes above and beyond with such kindness and skill. I cannot thank them enough.

Hi Antonia, thank you so much for your lovely review, I have passed this on to Eden who was very touched by your kind words and to Neil who was also very proud that we we were all able to guide and assist you and your family during the arrangements for your Dad.
