Services
Saints Funeral Services originated from the idea of providing unique funeral transport across Cornwall. This is a VW splitscreen hearse specifically designed to transport your loved one on their funeral day. Darren Saint had always aspired to becoming a funeral director and after alot of hard work and dedication over a two year period a branch of Saints Funeral Services was set up in St Ives covering St Ives, Hayle and the surrounding areas.
Saints Funeral Services is dedicated to meeting your needs and, if you wish, we are able to look after your deceased loved one until the funeral. We take away the burden of bureaucracy and can ensure the relevant medical certificates are completed and the death is registered. We will also notify family, friends and colleagues and take responsibility for all of the funeral arrangements.
Saints Funeral Services is an independently run funeral directors, managed by the Saint & Smith families. Unlike most funeral directors, we have named ourselves Saints Funeral "Services." There is a reason for this, we are what we say on the tin, we offer a service. In offering our services we quite simply just want to be the best at what we do and give you the best possible service levels, we are not just another funeral directors.
Our funeral vehicle fleet consists of a black mercedes hearse and limousine and are timeless classics capable of transporting your loved one and family in style and comfort on their funeral day. We usually attend the home address requested and travel to the church or place of service. Some of you may not feel you require this service and you may even think you want something slightly different.
If the decision is made for a cremation funeral then we can offer advice on the most suitable service. There is the option of conducting religious or non religious ceremonies, tailor made to your requirements with your choice of order of service or other personal effects.
The ceremony can be conducted in your local church, followed by a family interment at the crematorium or you may wish to conduct the whole service at the crematorium, the choice is yours.All of the crematoriums are set in lovely tranquil locations and there are a variety of services with special areas in which flowers can be viewed.

‘Darren and Paul have been brilliant in sorting out the scattering of friend's mum's ashes (it was too emotional for my friend to deal with). Right from when I first made contact, they have been great; keeping the communication lines open, being supportive and guiding me through what I needed to do and what they would do. They sent my friend a card and photo's of where her mum's ashes have been scattered and we plan to visit there one day - we live many miles away from St Ives. I would thoroughly recommend Saints Funerals, without any hesitation. Thank you both :)’

We chose Saints to hold the funeral for our beloved family member, and we were all extremely pleased with our choice.
From start to finish, everything was handled perfectly. Nothing was too much trouble, and all our needs were catered for with great compassion, we felt that our loved one was in good hands. The chapel overlooking Porthmeor beach was the perfect place to say our goodbyes, we all left the funeral with much lighter hearts.
We would like to thank Darren and Paul for making it a beautiful and memorable farewell.

We can't thank Saints enough for the exceptional service they provided. Friendly, helpful and supportive, Darren and Paul have immense empathy and helped us put together a funeral that was most respectful of our mums wishes.
In searching for an Independent Funeral Directors, we were lucky to find Saints with their iconic Chapel of Rest, set in the hillside overlooking the sea.
Thank you again for the cherished memories at a very bleak time in our lives. We thoroughly recommend Saints Funeral Services.

I cannot praise highly enough the service and care we received from Darren and his team when we said goodbye to my dad Edward Jenkyn. From the initial phone call to the continued support after dad was laid to rest, their service was professional, caring and reverent. Nothing was too much trouble at any time of the day or night. We had a very large funeral to plan and Saints guided us through each step, making sure our wishes were carried out and that dad was laid to rest with dignity and respect. I would highly recommend Saints to any family going through what is such a tough time. We couldn't

We cannot praise Saints Funeral Services highly enough.
At the most difficult of times Darren and his team were sensitive and professional throughout.
They listened and fully understood our wishes, providing a bespoke service, tailor made to suit our needs.
It is impossible to overstate how impressed we were by the quality, class and kindness shown.
Thank you.

I cant thank Darren and the Team at Saint's Funeral Services enough for their help, support and assistance in making Mum's funeral a special celebration of her life. I highly recommend this company for their great service and transparency on associated costs at a particularly challenging time for my family. Thank you Saints.
