On behalf of my bereaved aunt I would like to thank your staff for their professional and empathetic approach to their work. They sympathetically guide you through the bereavement maze of decisions and notifications.....at no stage did their attention seem rushed but they were always there to give guidance and recommendations. They enabled me to plan my cousins Nottingham cremation with ease from Kent whilst being hugely supportive of my elderly aunt. This was typified by their courteous handling ( literally) of my aunt on the day of the funeral. Mark and Russell did a super job as did our driver who enabled us to drive to Bramcote sedately and yet somehow relaxed. Huge thanks. Marion Hudson

Outstanding throughout. Cannot praise them highly enough. Thank you so very much.
St. Albans House, situated in Arnold, was opened in 1996 by Alison Maddaford, the president of the National Association of Funeral Directors at the time, and extended during late 2012. It is now run by Russell Kemp who has a very good knowledge of Arnold’s people, ministers, churches and customs. Russell gained his Diploma qualification with the National Association of Funeral Directors and is assisted by our funeral arranger Jessica Raynor. Beryl Spencer and Jodie Ruth are the receptionists / administrators.
A.W. Lymn's Arnold branch features a parking area, reception, two private reception rooms, two visitation rooms and also a visitation suite with an adjoining room where the family can spend time in private. There are also cold room facilities and a small memorial showroom.
Russell, Jessica, Beryl and Jodie will be more than pleased to offer any assistance you require, whether this is ’at need’, or simply an enquiry for the future. The funeral home is open from 9 am to 5 pm Monday to Friday, and 9 am to 12:30 pm on Saturday. All A.W. Lymn funeral homes are also open at any time by appointment and the telephone line is available every day of the week, 24 hours a day.
This branch covers all of Arnold and the surrounding areas including Calverton, Daybrook, Epperstone, Killisick, Lambley, Lowdham, Oxton, Redhill, Woodthorpe and beyond.

5Janet Callaway15th Sep 2018
I can highly recommend Lymns, they were professional and caring from the first telephone call to the funeral service and burial. I first spoke to Russell at the Arnold branch to make an appointment and he was very polite and courteous and explained everything to me. We then dealt with Deanna when we went to the office. She was excellent and guided us through the process with complete professionalism and empathy. The funeral itself went without a hitch, the drivers and everyone involved were polite and courteous and this extended to the burial too. The little touches such as a basket of rose petals to sprinkle onto the coffin and the vase of flowers were much appreciated. Lymns made what was a very difficult day much easier with their exceptional service.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for your positive, kind and very detailed review. We are glad that the service provided by every member of the team at Arnold made this difficult day easier for you and are pleased that all the little touches were appreciated.

i can't speak highly enough about all of the staff I came into contact with at the Arnold branch of Lymn's while recently arranging my Mum's funeral. It made the process so much easier during a very emotional time.
