Saltash Funeral Directors Pengelly Funeral Service was formed by Peter Pengelly in 1982 at Landrake, moving to Saltash in 1986.

In 2007, Peter entrusted his business to Walter C. Parson, a family business originating from Stoke Climsland, Cornwall. Today, our dedicated team, headed by David Fowell, ensures that Peter’s exemplary standards are upheld.

Situated in the heart of Saltash shopping centre, this property was the ideal location to serve the local community of Saltash, and was extensively refurbished  in June 2007. David and Ayesha also serve the Torpoint office.

At our Saltash office we offer local direct cremation, competitively priced simple funerals and completely personalised traditional funeral services. Fully guaranteed pre-paid funeral plans are also available.

Our Saltash office serves Saltash, Hatt, Landrake, Tideford, St Germans and the surrounding areas.

Ayesha was so kind and understanding when we discussed how we wanted to say goodbye to my mum, her knowledge and professionalism made us all feel genuinely safe and listened to throughout the process of organising and being at my mum's funeral. Maureen was so approachable when dealing with the necessary administrative side of the funeral service and replied really promptly. It made such a difference at a difficult time. On the actual day the whole team made us feel “held and cared for” We as a family and myself personally would highly recommend Pengelly Funeral Service to anyone. Thankyou
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for leaving such a glowing review about Ayesha, Maureen and the whole team at Pengelly Funeral Service. It was our privilege to look after your Mum's funeral arrangements and we are so pleased that everything went as smoothly as possible.

I cannot thank David Fowell and his amazing team enough at Pengelly Funeral Service in Saltash with regard to the organising of my late husband's funeral, Chris Evans (25/08/21). From start to finish David and his team showed compassion, professionalism and above all respect to Chris and myself. Nothing was too much trouble and I felt safe knowing that my husband was in good hands. Ayesha and Maureen are also a credit to your company and I will be for ever thankful for their help with sourcing the music required for the service etc. All of our family and friends commented on how good David and the team were, pure brilliance!! I will undoubtingly recommend David and the team at Pengelly Funeral Services every time. Thank you x
