Ugalde & Son is the longest-established independent family funeral director in Cornwall, founded in 1887 and now run by Bryan and Clyve Ugalde as the fifth generation of the family. Based at Trelawney House in Liskeard, the firm serves South East Cornwall around the clock, offering cremation, traditional burial, and natural green burial options, direct cremation, and funeral planning packages tailored to individual family wishes.
The business remains deliberately independent of any corporate group, and its approach is guided by a principle handed down from the late Trelawney Ugalde: to treat every funeral as if it were for a member of the family's own household. Rather than following a fixed format, the team say they listen closely to what each family wants, viewing the funeral itself as part of the grieving process. The firm holds membership with both NAFD and SAIF, and aims to respond to enquiries within one working day.
