Company Details

The Oaks is a light and bright space. We wanted this sort of space for my mum’s service. It was lovely to look outside and see flowers and greenery as our mum loved the countryside. The staff were helpful and we were made welcome.

All went well thank you

A lovely place in a beautiful setting which made an upsetting time bearable. Much nicer than traditional crematoriums. Everything went like clockwork. Thank you.

Service was just what we wanted,

This is weird being asked to write a review for a crem. I don’t know what to say. The job was done I guess. I really took more notice of funeral director and celebrant. The room is ok, clean and well set out, although we didn’t have enough seating. The view from the large picture windows is good and nice to see nature to help ground you. The music and slide show was carried out efficiently. I don’t recall any staff speaking to me as funeral director arranged everything. Parking is easy. I was upset to receive a letter a week later referring to the remains of ……., seems insensitive way of expressing. Visited the grounds with a view to placing ashes there. I hated the grounds, so barren and I certainly don’t want him scattered in grass in an area like a paddock. Particularly didn’t like the imitation rocks used for ashes or the benches with drawers so I bought him home. However I recognise this is personal choice but I prefer the grounds at Portchester Crematorium and the way ashes are buried in the ground. However I have no complaints about the day of the funeral and the service.

Very peaceful at the Oaks. I have had to go there a couple of times there now and found that is a very smooth and quiet place to have a funeral. Would recommend to all.

The location was perfect and everyone was so lovely Happy ho have used the Oaks to give my Mum the perfect send off

The grounds were well kept, the room was welcoming. The whole service was well managed.

I was absolutely delighted with The Oaks crematorium. Of course the setting is delightful & I just loved the large window behind the lecturn which brought so much light into the auditorium & I enjoyed watching the squirrels jumping about outside. If you dare call a funeral a happy occasion I can only say I thoroughly enjoyed my husband’s, everything went so smoothly & professionally. Our Celebrant, Clare was excellent, the music was prepared for us & the organisation discreet & respectful. A very big thank you to the team at The Oaks.

My husbands cremation was dealt with with the highest dignity and the ashes returned to home in a very professional dignified way This was a very easy experience at a time when everything was so difficult Highly recommend

Overall an good experience

It was a good service,

The crematorium is set in a beautiful setting. Staff were very helpful.

Lovely peaceful place. Great service.

Welcoming and efficient, would definitely recommend.

Outstanding service lovely staff beautiful view lovely tidy gardens very family orientated

Absolutely first class great care taken to all the people who came

The location is perfect, being quiet with a beautiful wooded backdrop to the service. The staff were professional and respectful and the facilities are simple and starightforward. I held both my mother's funeral and then my husband's here and felt they had a good celebration ceremony.

Having lost two sisters in one year has been to say the least difficult. However, everyone at The Oaks and Co-op Funeralcare looked after us right from the get-go. The Oaks is a lovely place and could not have wished better for my sister.

pleasant surroundings and lovely service looking out the large window where their are squirrals etc helps alot a very surreal time so thankyou
