I visited on the 13th May to commemorate the Fallen heroes of the London Fire Brigade. There was plenty to see and explore on this beautiful ground.
As the main car park was reserved for dignities and special guests, I parked a distance from the main entrance and walked on high gravel ground - very uncomfortable, in a vast ground used as a car park.
There are lots trees and memorials surrounding memorials, colourful flower beds and well-kept lawns.
A place worth visiting.

Our 2nd visit to this wonderful place even in the rain which there was a lot of on our visit but did dry up eventually. Came as a couple last time but bought daughter & granddaughter this time & was great to see everything assessable to see. Granddaughter enjoyed making a plaque for the RAF 100year ceremony. Only negatives are the cost of the paper maps £3 not good in the wet & the cost of gifts in the shop, yes I know it all goes to The Arboretum which is why I made some purchases. Overall a thoroughly enjoyable if tiring day.

Lovely spacious place. Good for a nice quiet day out . Excellent coffee shop. Wouldn't recommend for young children. Nice to see all those remembered for what they did for us.

A friend and myself selected this location for a photography lesson.
There is plenty of parking available on site and it costs £3 for as long as you want.

The place itself is fantastic. A great memorial to past and present servicemen and women. Lots of lovely memorials, plaques and displays. Some of the pieces of sculpture are amazing. Lots of stories being told. We spent a good couple of hours taking photographs and walking around reading about the different services. Very interesting day

There is a lot of walking to be done as the grounds are expansive, there are wheelchairs available for those who would struggle, but its also a lovely walk if yo are able.

The weather was awful most of the time but the location and the history was great. There is a large Cafe, which sells meals, snacks and drinks - pretty expensive but thats pretty par for the course for this sort of place (2x sandwich and 2x hot drinks £14). If I go again ill take a sandwich and a flask.

Overall a very good day out. The monuments with the stretcher bearers was very moving, which the slot in the stone which shines through on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th Month. Definitely a recommended place to visit

It is a truly wonderful place to visit. There is a land train that takes you round if your not very good on your legs, it is a large area to cover on foot. The monuments are superb and so many of them. There is a restaurant and a coffee shop and gift shop. Lots of other things to do as well. It is a place that everyone should visit in their lifetime and appreciate what it is there for.

To our serving past and present Service Men and Women. Wonderful gardens, memorial plaques, benches, water. Really good parking which costs £3 for the day. On entering there is a large lovely cafe area with indoor and outdoor seating, gift shop and desk to help you with informatiom on the Arboretum. A beautiful calm place where you can wonder at your leisure, take in the atmosphere and enjoy the different memorial gardens. There are some womderful pieces of sculpture and the tree used are wonderful. We have had the most amazing day. The Volunteers and Staff made sure everyone was looked after.

Great to see this place as a focus for us to remember those that have given so much for us. Wheelchair readily available for those who would find walking round the site a bit much. every part of the site was accessible .

This is a wonderful place. The land train is well worth a ride. The arboretum is wonderfully laid out, the buildings are superb, the staff and volunteers helpful and the memorials beautiful and varied. The restaurant was really great too.
So glad we visited and will do so again.
Thanks to all who work there and who have been involved in bringing a concept to reality.
