Lovely people and a highly efficient operation.

Janice Lee 12th Jan 2023

My family and I lost our father last year and our mother 3 months ago. The funeral arrangements for both funerals were covered by Gillotts funeral directors in Kimberley.      I can’t speak highly enough about the service we had, it is a very stressful and painful time, it was made less stressful and very calm sitting with Alan. Thank you helping us through the day.

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.

    from start to finish me and my family felt very at ease and assured by the care and consideration that they gave to us. I really had nothing to do, they did it all and very helpful to us.

  • 5 Christine Good 16th Dec 2022

    Excellent service, extremely polite, helpful and efficient staff. 

  • 5 Shannon Wright 8th Nov 2022

    Well where do I start.. First of all I just want to give a massive heartfelt thank you to all the staff at gillotts for making Kaine’s special day perfect from start to finish! 100% effort was made from everyone involved and we couldn’t of asked for anymore. 

    I would like to give an extra special sincere thank you to Jodie Wardle, this wonderful lady literally made our families one wish come true.. she went above and beyond to ensure that we were able to view Kaine after 3 months of waiting which is something we never imagined would be possible due to the circumstances. She exceeded our expectations massively, it meant the entire world to us! She did this off her own back which she didn’t have to do and personally made it her mission to make this happen for us. She went above and beyond her job role.. her professionalism, integrity, commitment and dedication shone through! She was very informative and kept us updated continuously throughout our time with Gillotts. She was able to answer all of our questions and ease any of our worries. 

    She is literally an Angel on earth and we will never be able to repay her for making such a hard time  that little bit easier.. she will always hold a special place in our hearts. 

    Jodie is one in a million and every funeral directors needs somebody like her! 

    An enormous thank you once again on behalf of 

    Kaine’s partner Shannon, his children, and the rest of the Fletcher and Ameyaw family

  • 5 Peter Kew 29th Oct 2022

    Fantastic service from start to finish, Helen has been absolutely amazing compassionate and there every step of the way making the whole process manageable.
    Both Helen and Anthony made a fantastic job with the presentation of mum and when visiting at the Chapel of rest I was taken aback by how beautiful she looked you did an absolutely superb job and I cannot thank you all enough for making the whole experience as easy and pleasurable as it could have been.
    A truly 5*** service from Gillots

    Kind Regards

    I cannot find fault at all with Gillotts in Kimberley.  From beginning to end, they were helpful, compassionate and caring.  I would like to add a big thankyou to Jodie whose knowledge and friendliness eased such a hard and difficult time on the death of my husband Joseph.  She seemed to understand exactly what I wanted for him.  Thanks to all the staff at Gillotts, the funeral for my husband was perfect for him.
