We're a funeral home in the heart of Bath, serving the communities of Bradford-on-avon, Batheaston, Bathamption and Monkton Combe since the 1960s. Our clients describe us as "patient, kind, and compassionate". These are words we live by every day as we strive to give everyone who comes to us the best experience possible when arranging a funeral.

Yes, absolutely. We serve Bradford-on-Avon along with Batheaston, Bathamption and Monkton Combe, and we've been supporting families across these communities since the 1960s. Our team at Pulteney Road knows the area well and we're very familiar with local crematoriums, churches and cemeteries. Distance is never a barrier when it comes to looking after families, and we'll visit you at home or welcome you to our funeral home, whichever feels right for you.
Yes, we have a peaceful chapel of rest here on Pulteney Road where you're welcome to spend time with your loved one. Families often find these visits comforting, whether it's saying a private goodbye or bringing children or other relatives to pay their respects. Our team will arrange a time that suits you and make sure you have all the privacy and support you need during your visit.
Yes, we can. Our team is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so whenever you need us we'll bring your loved one into our care with dignity and respect. Whether they're at the Royal United Hospital, a local care home, or at home in Bath or the surrounding villages, we'll make all the arrangements and handle everything sensitively. Once they're with us, you can visit them in our chapel of rest whenever you'd like to, and we'll guide you gently through every decision that follows at a pace that suits you.
Absolutely, we regularly arrange services at churches across Bath, including St Mary's Bathwick, St John's Catholic Church, and St Mary's Catholic Church. Our experienced team understands the requirements for Catholic funerals and works respectfully with parish priests to ensure everything follows the proper traditions. We can also arrange non-religious celebrations or services reflecting other beliefs, tailoring each funeral to what feels right for your family.
Yes, we work closely with Haycombe Crematorium and can arrange all the details on your behalf. We'll book the time slot that works for your family, coordinate with the celebrant or minister, and make sure everything runs smoothly on the day. Our team will guide you through what to expect at Haycombe, from the service itself to collecting ashes afterwards, so there are no surprises during what's already a difficult time.
