Loosing our dad as been the most difficult time of our lives, but with A W Lymn arranging his funeral as made the whole process easier to to deal with.

Could not have been more helpful. Emma helped us arrange my aunts funeral and adjust the plans as needed. Jonathan and the bearers were both friendly and respectful as you would expect. Thank you all. Definitely would recommend.

Connie Richardson 23rd Mar 2026

My family have used A.W. Lymn’s caring and professional funeral services on more than one occasion in the past. And this is the reason we once again wanted them to provide us with a beautiful service for my beautiful daughter Lisa who recently lost her fight with cancer. Thank you to David and the staff for your support.

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.

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 Marion Dunn 23rd Mar 2026

    What a lovely send off for my auntie. This was thanks to AW Lymn Mansfield Woodhouse. They kindly held my hand through the processes and procedures; who would have thought how many little things go into making the day a success. All the staff were professional, courteous, thoughtful and treated my auntie with dignity. They kept me informed by telephone at every step of the way. I was delighted with the quality of service and would have no hesitation recommending them to others.
    The celebrant conducting the service truly reflected auntie in all aspects of the service. She wove the stories into a beautiful "Rembering Auntie". Aunties friends all said what a lovely service it was.
    Thank you Lymn.

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Woodhouse Team replied
    Thank you for entrusting us with the arrangements of your late aunt’s funeral. I know we came to you by recommendation along with celebrant, Katie Page. We were only too happy to support you through this difficult time and ensuring that your aunt’s service was respectful and fitting for such a unique lady. - Stacey & The Mansfield Woodhouse Team

  • 5 Donna Wragg 12th Feb 2026

    We honestly couldn’t have asked for more from a funeral directors. From the very first meeting, the staff were incredibly personal, compassionate, and attentive, making us feel genuinely cared for during such a difficult time. Every detail was handled with professionalism and sensitivity, and communication was always clear, timely, and reassuring. They worked alongside us as a family, truly listening to what we wanted and ensuring my father’s service reflected him perfectly. We felt heard, supported, and completely looked after throughout the entire process. Their kindness and personal touch made all the difference, and we are deeply grateful for everything they did for us. Stacey, Emma, Kieran and Jonathan were all fantastic.

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Woodhouse Team replied
    I truly lovely family to deal with and they had very specific ideas for the service. I am glad that we were able to bring these wishes into reality and help the family structure a service for an obviously very y loved man.

    We also will miss the chocolates from Mrs Wragg!

  • 5 Gail Sykes 4th Feb 2026

    From the first visit to their Offices, right the way through to dropping us off at the Wake, the service was exemplary. There were lots of hurdles to climb but nothing was too much trouble for Jonathan, Stacey or Emma at the Mansfield Woodhouse office. They co-ordinated everything from the Church, Vicar, Organist and burial, to the change over from hearse to horse and cart. On the day Jonathan was not available so we had the honour of having Matthew Lymn Rose as our Funeral Director. He insisted on walking the 1.1 miles in front of the horse and cart from the changeover to the Church - what dedication! I would have no hesitation in recommending this Company to anyone. Their care, compassion and respect to your loved one is formidable. Their attention to detail in order to for the day to run smoothly and on time is second to none.

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Woodhouse Team replied
    It was an honour for us to serve the Sykes family again after conducting the arrangements for Mrs Sykes a number of years ago. It proved a bit of a challenge trying to get together all the elements that the family wanted, to give Mr Sykes a very fitting and unique funeral service. This really was a team effort and all who have played their part with the arrangements and on the day are glad that we were about to fulfil yours and the families wishes to celebrate the life of an obviously well loved gentleman. - Jonathan Baker, Matthew Lymn Rose & All The Team At Mansfield Woodhouse

  • 5 Gillian Welch 30th Dec 2025

    Jonathan, Stacey and the team have enabled us to handle funeral arrangements with compassion, care and professionalism. They pulled out the stops when an end date had been missed. Efficient and effective, nothing was too much effort.

    Reminder calls and emails of ongoing communication were outstanding with only a 2-week turnaround to meet our request and hold the funeral before Christmas.

    Thank you for providing us with the best attention at a really difficult and sad time.

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Woodhouse Team replied
