Drakes of Torbay are excellent. The care and customer service they provided, at such a difficult time, was such that Stuart made the whole process as easy as it possibly could be. They literally take care of everything, and they do this efficiently and in a way that is kind, respectful and unobtrusive. Drakes recommended a celebrant called Chas, to take the service, and he was terrific, taking the pain out of everything and making the funeral service a celebration of my mam's life. In 2002, Drakes took care of my dad, they were amazing back then and remain so now. I can't fully express my gratitude.

The staff and the funeral was amazing.
Very surportive on me and my family
Ist class service would recommend this service to anyone

I am especially grateful to the funeral director Stuart Drake, who talked me through everything I need to do. I was feeling very overwhelmed in the days immediately after my dad died and having his step-by-step guidance on the paperwork and various things that needed to be done was really helpful.

Stuart helped me so much with arrangements from start to finish.Kept in touch throughout and advised were needed. On the Day of funeral Mark contacted me and everything was conducted with such dignity and grace. Everyone was very professional and kind. Would highly recommend.
Thank you all so very much.

Our family have used Drakes twice in the last13 years. I am pleased to say our recent experience was as good as the first time.
Stuart and his team helped use through the process with calm and sureness. Stuart listened to what we wanted, gave advice and recommended an ideal celebrant in Chas. The funeral pamphlet was above what we expected and well presented.
Their support during the service was thoughtful and unobtrusive.

I couldn't fault Drakes in the way they managed my fathers funeral and how they dealt with the family. They were considerate, caring, respectful and truly understanding. Their help and guidance through this most difficult of times was appreciated greatly by my mother and the rest of the family.

A big thank you to Stuart and his team for making the wettest day so far this year into a positive experience for us! His attention to detail was outstanding, and made what could have been a terrible day due to the weather into a memorable day in a good way!Thank you for your efforts. I would recommend Drakes 100%
