We are so grateful to everyone who is part of the team at Tapper Funeral Service. Jan took great care of us, giving clear explanations and making sure that we had everything in place that needed to be. We never felt rushed or pushed to make decisions and we felt confident in the service, throughout, so making a difficult few weeks much less daunting

Excellent prompt and efficient service. Everything explained and options provided with care, compassion and not at all pushy. Habour View set the right tone for the ceremony and cremation. Modern, clean, exceptional quality and the facilities allowed for digital visual photo tribute through TV large tv screens. Not rushed unlike Poole Crematorium. All in all I was totally satisfied with all aspects of the service for my mum from first contact to final invoice. I would recommend their services and especially combined with the ceremony and cremation at Harbour View without hesitation or reservation.

Thank you to Tapper Funeral Service. They carried out their services with dignity and decorum whilst thinking of every detail to make the day run smoothly. Harbour view was a very beautiful and special place to hold the funeral service. We were never rushed which meant so much to us. The comments we have had back from family and friends were extremely complimentary.

The Tappers team including Neil the Celebrant we outstanding, they were so professional, caring and understanding, they made the process so much easier and as painless for all of us in this difficult time.The funeral & wake took place in the barn on Harbour View it was the most perfect setting & tribute to my father.
