From our very first phone call to Farriers, we felt so supported and cared for. Sonia was so kind, instantly putting us all at ease and helped us plan our father's funeral. Giving us many different options and guidance throughout the whole process. Also offering some very little special personal touches that really meant the world to us as a family. Sonia also recommended the most amazing celebrant, David Austen - he couldn't have been more perfect for our service. We couldn't recommend Farriers enough! Zoë, Romely & Jen Pope

Would highly recommend. Everyone we spoke to were kind and considerate but I dealt with Sonia in particular. She guided me through the process of organising my Mum's funeral from start to finish gently and sensitively and made what was a difficult job at such a sad time so much easier. Nothing seemed too much trouble and I can't thank her enough.

From the first moment I stepped inside Farriers, I felt supported and cared for. Lys was SO kind and understanding, and patiently talked me through all possibilities for my husband’s funeral. I visited several times for reassurance, and her kindness and professionalism was truly exceptional. On the day of the funeral, I felt that it was a friend leading us all into Hawkinge Crematorium.

Absolutely an amazing set of people. Dealt with Julie who oversaw everything. Nothing was to small or big. After a torrid time with the coroners office Julie and her team done everything in their stride making life that little easier at such a traumatic time for the Family. Cost was very competitive but more importantly they made us feel at ease, no pressure and done exactly what we asked. I sincerely hope I won't be visiting a Funeral Directors any time soon, but should the need arise I wouldn't hesitate to come back to Farriers & Son. Julie & your team - Thank You from all of us!

Quite possibly the most compassionate company that I have ever dealt with. Julie organised the funeral for our dad and everything went perfectly. I can never thank her enough for her attention to detail, chasing coroners when I was incredibly frustrated, and just being there every time I called to answer questions. Other staff that we dealt with at Farriers were so kind and made a difficult time bearable. Would 100% recommend and I would never use anybody else now.
