I have visited this place a few times now and on each visit it just gets better. The Memorial has grown and matured wonderfully. The facilities are good and cater for all abilities. Will be back again.

A very beautiful, but meaningful place to visit. Grounds very well thought out, and the purpose of planting in different areas very symbolic. We will certainly be back to see memorials we failed to visit today. Free entry and refreshments very good and reasonably priced.

Great place to visit if you have connections with the armed forces, shop sells some interesting quality items and the cafeteria looks nice although we didn't use it as only had an hour there. Would be great if they could get funding for a museum there to atract I wider audience.

Less of an arboretum more of a memorial Park with trees. Probably will be better in 20 years

Wow. What a very tranquil place. We went on a busy bank holiday, but around the memorials we found it very reflecting. Did not manage to get round a quarter of them, so looking forward to our many returns.

Visited several times before but took the grandchildren this time. Massive site but land train is available for those of limited mobility. Mainly military memorials ( we realised just how little we knew about the sacrifices made on our behalf) but there are individual memorials. A true place of remembrance. Small parking fee but entry to arboretum is free , although donations are always welcome.

Four of us visited in July on a really hot day. It was enormous and we must have walked for hours. It covered every aspect of all the wars worldwide, nobody was forgotten even Deserters that were shot at dawn and Post Traumatic Stress victims were honoured too which was particularly moving for me. Trees had also been planted for personal bereavements. The carvings were magnificent. It is somewhere we will spend another day visiting as a very humbling and moving experience. There were two types of restaurants.
