Dillamore Funeral Service is an experienced and compassionate independent family-run funeral director based in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire. Established in 1923 by Samuel Robert Dillamore, the business has remained on the same premises since it opened and has been passed down through the Dillamore family for over 100 years. What began as a furniture making and house furnishing business evolved into a trusted funeral service that has served the communities of Leighton Buzzard and Linslade for generations.
The company prides itself on its genuine care, compassion, and flexibility, with a long-standing team dedicated to adapting their services to meet each family's individual needs. Unlike larger funeral chains, Dillamore ensures that every loved one remains on their own premises from the moment of collection until the day of the funeral, providing families with peace of mind and personalised attention.
Dillamore Funeral Service offers a wide range of funeral types, including traditional funerals, direct cremations, natural burials, repatriations, and celebrations of life, serving all faiths and cultures. They are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and also offer Golden Charter prepaid funeral plans. Their Chapel of Rest is open for families to visit their loved ones as many times as they wish.
