e tea stop whilst on our way to France to commemorate the 100th anniversary of 1st world war. we'd heard great things about it but nothing prepared us for what we saw. arrived early to take advantage of a hearty breakfast and was greeted by lovely volunteers who were extremely helpful. we were looking for a few thing in particular including regiments, and more specifically war veterans and everyone we asked were extremely well informed and,able to direct us to exactly where we wanted to see. Apart from the main memorial of the fallen etched on stone tablets, there were hundreds of regimental memorials scattered within the gardens. the place is huge and a fitting tribute to all the men, women and animals who served. I had read a few negative reviews about the service of remembrance on the 11th. all I can say is, the plans were huge and being set up as we were there on the Friday morning. The numbers attending could not have been anticipated and as for the complaint about the cafe, I would have thought it would have been pleasing to see so many people attending to pay their respects. I am sure following our experience and that of others I have spoken to, the staff will have done their utmost to hold a service fitting for the fallen

An great place to visit and say thank you to all those who served and gave the ultimate sacrifice for us to live our privlidged life's. Got good car parking clean torlets and canteen. Frendly staff and facilities for all disabilities and guides. Memorials for many sectors. Please go. It's free to get in just an car parking fee. If your alive then you must go and say thank you as we can grow old as the fallen ones can not. X

Just a amazing place, sadly I didn't have time to walk around it all, it's not just the armed forces that are remembered here, as I thought but the emergency services right down to postal workers.

My wife and were invited to to the NMA for the Armistice 100. Over the last five years it has developed into a 'place to see'. The history, the serenity and the layout is second to none. I fully recommend anyone to make a visit. Helping to make visits is the staff around the whole area, pleasant, friendly and extremely knowledgeable.
Thank you for our day of remembrance.

Second time we've visited last time was ''ride to the wall'' 2017. My complaint this time was the lack of buses from Park and Ride we were told there were 3 but saw only 2 so after driving nearly 2 hours stuck in traffic we then held our own minutes silence in a car park. My other complaint was the overflowing toilet close to the Christmas Truce Memorial. We watched an elderly disabled gentleman struggling to use the toilet, please can we treat these old soldiers with more respect.

My wife and I had been meaning to visit for ages and we are both glad we did. We found it all very moving on a glorious September day. AS the site is so large,we decided to take the train around the arboretum as other people have recommended on Tripadvisor. This gives a good insight with commentary and we were glad we did it. WE spent the whole day here walking around after the train trip and have still not managed to see it all. Will definitely be returning to take in the rest. There is also a restaurant and shop to visit. The guides are very helpful and knowledgeable too

Brill time second visit for remembrance day peacefull place made a bit more emotional due to the day would like to thank 1 service man for his decorum and politeness to a wanna be veteran in the bus cue after a couple of questions to a man in the cue and it seemed pretty clear that the man had never served in the forces but wore a uniform the soldier reminded him of the importance of the day and why it was so important then politely requested he did not do it again cool calm and spot on a big thank you to you all
