Bretford House Bretford, Rugby, Warwickshire, CV23 0JZ
Revel Funeral Service traces its roots to Alfred G Locke, who moved to the Coventry area from Gloucestershire in the 1930s and established a wedding and funeral carriage master business at Bretford House in 1977. Although Alfred aspired to open his own funeral directors, he passed away before realising that ambition; his grandson Antony later fulfilled it, recognising that local families needed a more bespoke, personal service than was otherwise available.
Now owned and run by Mrs Ann, Mr George and Mr Antony Ford, Revel Funeral Service operates from the peaceful surroundings of Bretford House, near Rugby, Warwickshire, complete with a dedicated chapel of rest for families to visit their loved ones. As members of the National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors, the firm upholds strict codes of practice while offering a genuinely personalised range of services, including floral tributes, white dove releases, and bespoke funeral transport.
With a published, standardised price list and round-the-clock emergency contact, Revel Funeral Service continues the family legacy started by Alfred Locke, providing independent, carefully tailored funeral care to families across Rugby and the surrounding Warwickshire countryside.
