We were given excellent support by Gillotts at an extremely difficult time. Having had no previous experience of arranging a funeral the advice and help we were given was second to none. They were considerate and very kind at all times. They kept us informed, helped us with any questions and we felt reassured that our loved one was in safe hands.

About Us

Gillotts Funeral Directors are an independent family funeral director in Kimberley. They offer caring and compassionate funeral services to families in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, although they are also happy to conduct funerals further afield if requested.

Gillotts dates back to 1867, when, as Star Livery Stables, the business began to hire out horse-drawn hearses to local Undertakers. Over the decades the business adapted to motor vehicles, and in the 1970's became a complete Funeral Service.

In 1997 the Gillotts took over premises on Main Street, Kimberley, and in November 2015, following extensive renovation, the Kimberley funeral home moved to much larger premises in The Old Church on Main Street at the corner of Broomhill Road.

The Kimberley funeral home is served by Funeral Arranger Jodie Wardle and experienced Funeral Director Alan Winfield, who will care for both you and your loved one before, during, and after the funeral.

Gillotts Funeral Directors has its own fleet of modern and reliable Jaguar hearses and limousines, ensuring that you can travel with dignity and comfort to the funeral.

Gillotts Funeral Directors, Kimberley is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 4:30pm, with a 24-hour service. Call now to find out more about the services they provide and begin planning the perfect send off for your loved one.

    Hello, The family were very satisfied with the funeral arrangements for my dear husband John Page on Monday 24th January 2022. Everything went very well. Everything was sensitively handled. The humanist celebrant Gaynor was exceptional; she listened to us very well. Her responses to our queries and requests were very timely. Alan Winfield was very caring and helpful. We were pleased with the service sheets, photomontage and webcast facility. Gedling Crematorium was very acceptable and modern. We liked the flowers. Thank you for everything, a difficult day for our family went very well due to your good organisation.

  • 5 Susan Pinkney 27th Jul 2021

    Regarding the funeral of my husband, Norman Pinkney on July 23rd: The care and help that I received from Gillotts, Kimberley were exemplary.Everything was excellent. Particular thanks to Alan Winfield, for his guidance and patience, and also to Kelly for her help. Norman had to have a special casket coffin made, and Alan explained to me the difference between that and the normal ones. He carried out his duties in a very caring and unobtrusive way. Thank You.
    Gillotts are definitely the best undertakers in the areas which they serve

  • 5 Sylvia Roberts 22nd Jun 2021

    A funeral is something that, hopefully, one experiences only rarely and it can be daunting to think about planning and organising one. Thankfully, we were fortunate in choosing Gillotts in Kimberley to take care of the arrangements for my mother's funeral last week - and take care of us they did. From the initial conversation with Kelly to the actual funeral a couple of weeks later, we could not have been in better hands. Everyone was professional, caring and considerate. Every detail was thoroughly planned and executed. We were guided through the process from start to finish.  I can't thank them all enough for helping us all through a difficult time.

  • 5 Sally Evans 6th Jun 2021

    Alan made sure the day went smoothly and gave us great comfort.
    Thank you
