About Us

The office, known as The Old Farm, is located in one of the oldest buildings in Mansfield Woodhouse, a former farmhouse that has recently been completely refurbished. It is set in lovely rural surroundings and has a beautiful service chapel, family rooms, visiting rooms, cold room facilities, washing facilities for specific funeral rites, plenty of parking and a full fleet of hearse and limousines.

Cyril Welsh Funeral Directors, who previously had offices at the premises, was incorporated by the A W Lymn group. The branch has most of the north Nottingham fleet on site, including a Rolls-Royce Phantom VII hearse and matching limousines.

Jonathan Baker is the area manager and the office is staffed by funeral directors Andy Askew and Stacey Burman and funeral arranger Wendy Walker & Max Whitehouse, who will be more than pleased to assist you during office hours, which are Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5pm and on Saturday from 9 am to 12.30 pm.

If you need assistance outside of these hours, please call the telephone number at any time and the office can be opened for you at your convenience.

The branch serves all of Mansfield Woodhouse and its surrounding area including Berry Hill, Blidworth, Church Warsop, Clipstone, Forest Town, Harlow Wood, Ladybrook, Mansfield, Pleasley, Rainworth, Ravenshead, Shirebrook, Warsop, Warsop Vale and beyond.

Nigel, Jackie and Matthew Lymn Rose manage A W Lymn The Family Funeral Service.

  • 5 Sylvia Ward 8th Jun 2019

    We cannot recommend Lymns Mansfield Woodhouse highly enough.
    The support, guidance, compassion and professionalism are fantastic. During the difficult time of losing my husband the service and funeral was exactly what he would have wanted. Small attention to detail from Lymns made the experience rememberable.
    Without doubt the best company we could have chosen. So professional but also personable.
    Thank you to all involved.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for this lovely review. We are pleased that the attention to detail shown by Jonathan and his team helped you create a fitting service for your husband and are glad they provided support and guidance throughout. Thank you.
