Amazing 150 acre site. Very disabled friendly. Would recommend to all. Allow a full day. Free admission, but well worth a generous donation when you leave.

The most humble place to Be ever

Stunning place, beautifully presented and very peaceful. We had the option to go during the week when it was quiet and it was such a touching tribute to all the men and women who had died in service.<br><br>An interesting fact we discovered was that it's not just service men and women who died in combat, but also those who died in accidents whilst serving.<br><br>We were particularly touched by the Shot at Dawn memorial and the accompanying talk. It was very informative and really brought home the cruelty of war and some of our own policies that were in place during WW1.<br><br>The Far East Prisoners of War memorial and talk were also very much worth a visit and all in all we could recommend this more highly.<br><br>We will certainly be visiting again in a few years time, as the trees mature further and additional monuments had been erected. We will probably choose to go on the autumn as the leaves will be turning, and it should give a different perspective and feel to the visit.

The National Memorial Arboretum is a great place to spend an afternoon. I spent three hours there and didn't make it through the whole memorial gardens. It costs £3 to park (all day). Admission is free unless you want to ride the tram around the park.
The memorial gardens are hadicap friendly, there are ramps and a tram is available. The main path through is hard ground for wheel chairs but some of the exhibits in the woods might be a little sketchy for the wheels or getting around.
There are so many monuments and memorials to look at. My favourite was the WW I Sikh memorial and the Sumatra Railway. It's a great place to take photographs. The rail line tracks look striking in black and white. Right now the spring flowers are all in bloom, the colours are amazing. There are also many hand painted rocks around the park right now. One of them was tagged Selsey Rocks. The artists are extremely talented.
The National Memorial Arboretim is a very peaceful place to reflect on all the sacrifices that were made to ensure we have the freedoms that we have today. It's quiet with just the sounds of the birds singing. There are many benches all over the park to sit down and enjoy the sounds of nature and nice weather. I would recommend a long afternoon to really get around and see everything.

Amazing tribute to all our fallen soldiers. Worthy of a full day's visit so you have time to visit all the individual memorials. It was a very humbling experience and one I would be honoured to visit again and again. Personally, the RAF PT Instructors memorial resonated with me because my father was a PT instructor during the second world war. Also special, was the Falklands memorial, though every single one deserves a few moments respect when you visit... Take a picnic and enjoy the vastness of the landscape gardens too.
