During such a sad and heartbreaking time all the staff at A W Lymns showed such compassion towards our family. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect.
The office is located at Standard House, on Chesterfield Road South, and is a two storey building directly across from the Catholic Church of Saint Philip Neri. Standard House was opened on 12th July 2005 by Dr. Nigel Chapman, H. M. Coroner for Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, to better serve Mansfield’s families.
The premises include a reception area, visitation rooms, family room, off-street parking, some garaging for our fleet cars and cold room facilities.
Funeral director David Clarke is in charge of the office and Jonathan Baker is the senior funeral director responsible for the area. David is available at the funeral home from 9 am to 5 pm Monday to Friday. Alternatively you can arrange an appointment at your convenience if you are unable to visit the office during opening hours. The telephone line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The branch covers all of Mansfield and its surrounding area including Berry Hill, Blidworth, Church Warsop, Clipstone, Forest Town, Harlow Wood, Ladybrook, Mansfield Woodhouse, Pleasley, Rainworth, Ravenshead, Shirebrook, Warsop, Warsop Vale and beyond.

The care and compassion we had received from the initial phone call to Tina, to the funeral on Thursday has been second to none. Communication has been brilliant and we as a family cannot thank Tina enough, she is simply fantastic . Also the wonderful gentleman in charge of the funeral procedures on Thursday. What a truly lovely man.
Lymn’s have gone above and beyond for us.

5Andrew David Hyslop9th Mar 2021
I chose A W Lymn to conduct my late father’s funeral on Monday, 8th March, 2021.
Our funeral organiser was Tina Clay who was fantastic and so professional to deal with from our very first conversation. In fact Tina went above and beyond in the planning and delivering of exactly what we wanted. She made the whole process so easy.
Andy the Funeral Director was outstanding. What a great guy and so professional.
We thought the two times that Andy walked in front of the hearse were an extra special touch, as was the pausing outside of my Mum and Dad’s former bungalow.
Andy and our driver, Martin were very compassionate in the way in which they looked after my Mum. Both quickly put us all at ease. and Martin’s driving was excellent.
The Chapel was offered to us for the Service and was greatly appreciated due to the cold and inclement weather.
We thought the service was excellent and thank Tina for her choice of Minister, Chris Carnall, who delivered such a fantastic tribute. I also thank Tina for the provision of the iPod and music. Also for creating the lovely Orders of Service.
To finalise, Tina, Andy and the whole team were first class and I wish to thank each and every one of you for organising, managing and conducting my Dad’s funeral so professionally.
I would most definitely recommend A W Lymn without reservation.

Chloe Lymn Rose replied

We would also thank you for your recommendation as this means a lot to us. Thank you once again.

I am grateful to you for taking the time to leave this wonderful and informative review. I understand how overwhelming a time it is when faced with arranging a funeral for a family member and I am truly glad that my guidance and support during this time made this process more bearable for you. The personalised elements you selected for your Mother such as the flowers and orders of service were beautiful and I am glad my recommendation to use Steven for the service worked so well for you. Please feel free to contact me again at any time if there is anything further I can do for you or if you simply just want to talk. Thank you, Tina.

4Peter Turner23rd Oct 2020
The only thing that dissappointed was that the celebrant did not say that Hannah Winterton could not sing live because of covid, which I think should have been said. Otherwise everything was very good thank you Carol.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for taking the time to review our service, we are glad that overall you were pleased with everything that we did for you. Unfortunately the restrictions in place in regards to coronavirus meant that live singing was not allowed but we regret that you were disappointed that this was not mentioned during the service. Thank you.
