From the beginning of the arrangements to the funeral day we were treated with respect and courtesy by all the staff and cannot thank them enough for helping us give John the funeral he deserved.
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.
A.W. Lymn The Family Funeral Service is managed by Nigel, Matthew and Jackie Lymn Rose, who are keeping the family tradition in providing the best service for bereaved families since 1907.

I cannot praise the staff at A W Lymns (Arnold) enough. They were supportive, caring, professional and bent over backwards to ensure our wishes were carried through.

we lost our beloved mum very suddenly at the age of 65, so unexpected, we were in utter shock, Elllie & Beryl at Lymns in Arnold welcomed us in, took charge and within an hour we had a funeral arranged
They arranged the chapel of rest for us so we could visit Mum in peace , none of us had ever done this, Beryl helped my Aunt do my mums hair and make up, we will be forever grateful for that, Ellie and Beryl were a constant source of advice and support, they made was such a horrific time for us , that little bit easier
I will never forget their kindness, and Russell, and his team on the day of the funeral, so professional, caring and respectful, thank you all so much

The service that lymns provided was excellent. They were very thorough, efficient with the right level of empathy. Every last detail was covered. The coffin and flowers were beautiful - the Order of Service was exactly as we wanted. They organised the music and hymns as requested. In all we couldn't have wished for a better funeral for our mother.

The service from start to finish was excellent. The Funeral Director on the day couldnt have done any more for us than he did and this was noted and commented on by many of the congregation and the family would like to thank himself and his colleagues for everything.
