Rating 5.0
Very considerate, kind, helpful, supportive and they kept us up to date with what was going on and what we should expect from them and what we should be doing. Everything went smoothly. Nothing was pushed on us, mum wanted no fuss and Lynda supported us in our choices to ensure that was what she got. I had wanted to put a posy of freesia flowers on mum's coffin in the crematorium because that was her favourite flowers. We ordered these from the florist and Lynda assisted me by showing me when to do this and helping me up and down the chancel steps as I use an elbow crutch.
David the chauffer introduced himself to us on pick up and Lynda walked in front of the hearse for a short distance. They showed mum and ourselves great respect. We could not have received better care. I would recommend them.

I have nothing but praise for the staff at Caladh. Having not lived in Dunoon for very long, so therefore had no knowledge of funeral directors, I chose to use Caladh on the recommendation of a friend when my father died. I'm very pleased I did as they were so professional as well as being sympathetic and courteous. They listened to everything we wanted and carried out my father's wishes to the letter, and kept us informed and involved every step of the way making a sad and difficult time so much easier to cope with.I can't recommend this company highly enough.

Staff treated myself and my family with the upmost respect and kindness when we recently lost my husband/father supporting us through a extremly difficult time as his death was very sudden and traumatic. We dealt mainly with a young lady called Chloe who treated us with great empathy and understanding and was professional at all times.
