"Exceptional Service and Compassionate Care"
I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service provided by Hilliers During one of the most difficult times in our lives, they showed unwavering professionalism, compassion, … read more and respect every step of the way. From the moment we contacted them, the team was incredibly understanding, taking the time to listen to our needs and guiding us with patience and kindness through all the arrangements.
The attention to detail was remarkable, and they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. We felt supported, never rushed, and truly cared for. They handled everything with the utmost respect for Julie, making a difficult process as seamless as possible.
The staff was incredibly organized, offering a wide range of services and helping us make choices that reflected Julies wishes. Every detail was taken care of, from the funeral service to the beautiful memorial, leaving us with one less thing to worry about.
I highly recommend Hilliers for anyone seeking a funeral service provider that combines professionalism, compassion, and dedication to helping families in their time of need. Thank you for everything – you made an incredibly challenging time a little easier to bear. -
We were devastated by the sudden death of our beloved son but Sue made the process of arranging an appropriate celebration of his life as simple as possible. With her guidance, we were able to personalise the service, as well as introducing … read more us to the perfect celebrant, Brian. This awful, heartbreaking, time was definitely made easier through the care and service provided, from Sue and the team at Hilliers in Old Town, and Brian, through to Tracey who gave us so much support on the day. We were made aware of costs at every stage, so understood what we were being invoiced for. We would definitely recommend them.

I cannot thank Hilliers enough for the care and kindness shown to my family at the loss of our first born son Martin. From collecting him from a London Hospital to his cremation. And for care in looking after Martin. For making a sad … read more situation that little bit easier in preparing for his funeral. Also for the floral display.

Both Hillier’s and Kingshill House come highly recommended. Having been told by long-standing members of staff at the nursing home in which my mother died, plus friends and other Swindonians, that Hillier's are the 'only' … read more firm to use, I chose them - having always been Co-op in the past. I was not disappointed. The funeral held at Kingshill House was perfect. The tasteful service room beats a cold, impersonal and soulless crematorium any day of the week, and that we had the wake there too was just right rather than having to go elsewhere. As there were no time limits nor the usual conveyor belt scenarios it gave us time to celebrate her life as we wished. People could also slip off into the chapel to say their goodbyes without fuss as it was so easy and informal. Nick was quietly efficient and so kind. Him suggesting the colourful coffin was genius and so appropriate for Mum attracting the most favourable comments, however, the picture in the catalogue does not do it justice by a long way. Despite more mourners turning up than anticipated, no panic ensued, and everything went smoothly with the staff all-but invisible throughout.
Hillier Funeral Service is one of Swindon’s oldest family businesses. We have three funeral homes covering Swindon, Wroughton, Royal Wootton Bassett, Purton, Chiseldon, Wanborough, Cricklade, Lydiard Millicent, Highworth, Fairford, Lechlade, Shrivenham and local villages. We are due to open our 4th funeral home at Lime Kiln House, Royal Wootton Bassett in Summer 2025.
Openness and transparency are very important to us, so we have created a Funeral Cost Calculator to help you get an understanding of the overall costs of the funeral you wish to arrange. Having visibility of the costs in advance allows you to make informed decisions and choices about the funeral arrangements.
All funeral directors are required by law to publish a price list for a standardised set of products and services.
The aim of these documents is to provide transparency so you can consider your options, make informed choices and compare prices between different funeral directors.
The range of options and choices available to you at Hillier extend far beyond the standardised price list. We will work closely with you to arrange any funeral you wish, big or small, that suits your individual needs and budget.
