A place of beauty, tranquility, peace and thoughtfulness. Have visited a number of times and am always amazed, saddened, inspired and filled with amazement and wonder.
Even more surprised when you find out it is solely funded by donations.
To those who left a negative review what pompous arrogance you show.

Our first visit to remember a very special father who's life was the Royal Engineers. We have found a place where we can peacefully honour him and remember his life.

What an amazing place. Had a buggy tour with Carole who brought everything to life. Highly recommend visiting here - just allow longer than you think as it's vast! We'll be back to see more!

Very good accessible site, have wheelchairs and mobility scooters that can be booked in advance if you cannot provide your own.

Have a train tour with commentary, just under an hour that cover the key places.

Plenty of places to explore good Pathways as well as being able to wounder among the trees to visit memorials.

Allow time as so much to see.

They have a cafe and snack area at reception, but you can take your own picnic, plenty of places and benches to sit.
Toilet block at reception, there are a few portoloos elsewhere.

There is a chapel near reception.

Charity run, with tap and pay options to donate. Everyone was helpful.

This is a wonderful place to visit. It is beautiful, thought provoking and very inspiring.
You need to put aside at least 4 hour or more to see as much as possible.

Lovely visit.
Gallery exhibitions are very well done and informative. Lovely walks through the arboretum and there is a land train that goes around the facility for those less able. More than one visit necessary to really see everything.

Beautiful grounds with huge areas of managed nature. Many hidden memorials that require leaving the path to find and appreciate. Definitely worth planning ahead and listing areas or memorials you are interested in, as well as just wandering. I will definitely be returning with a list and some historical context of the memorials I wish to see.

Surpassed our expectations and much bigger than I expected. A beautiful place with so many fitting tributes, information and places to just “be”. The team work hard to maintain the grounds.
I wasn’t sure if it would be child friendly but it absolutely is and a place for young minds to learn what our forces did for our country.
Restaurant and cafe offering everything you could wish for too!

Until recently I didn't know this place existed and I was blown away when I visited. There are memorials to and from as many organisations you could think of and then some. Set in beautifully maintained grounds its a moving and wonderful place to visit. The central national memorial to fallen service personnel is particularly moving.
