Visited here after a friend mentioned it. Never knew about it before. Lovely place, full of stories and memories. There are lots of talks and information on all aspects of conflicts past and present.
Spent a day here, but so much to see would happily return.

Nothing but praise for this wonderful place. Beautiful, restful, moving in the extreme. Cant wait to go back. A fantastic tribute to our fallen and the fallen of the Empire/Commonwealth.

Too big to visit on a short trip. Needs a full day. However quite overwhelming. Getting a bit haphazard with layout. Seems not enough planning or running out of space.<br>We wanted dedicate a tree to our mother near the women's Land arms memorial. However they are just trees that are already planted and for out £650 we would just get a random tree anywhere on the site.. this was jot what we wanted. So poor planning has lost them a donation.

I visited the national memorial arboretum with friends, there is a £3 (all day) car parking charge but, entrance is free. There is a large impression building, this houses the main entrance, cafe & shop, there are also a computer system that allows you to search for friends or relatives that are mentioned on the memorial wall.

The grounds are extensive and are clearly marked if you decide to walk round the area, there is also a “train” that drives around the site, there is a charcoal for this.

Reading the names on the main memorial or on the many smaller memorial, paying tribute to the fallen, is very humbling.
The site has memorial to not just the armed services but, to many organisation the have helped in many conflicts around the world.

Just a note: this is an outdoor memorial, so sensible shoes and waterproof clothes should be considered, most of the grounds are wheelchair friendly and easily accessible to disabled visitors.

Well worth a visit.
