National Memorial Arboretum
Latest Reviews
We visited on a Saturday lunch time and when we arrived the car park was extremely full and chaotic. However after finding a space and paying a very modest £3 to park, we entered the Arboretum (free admission; donations welcomed) and had a really tasty, reasonably priced lunch. The staff were very helpful and so pleasant; nothing was too much trouble.
As we had no particular memorial in mind to visit, we took the little road train and were so glad we had; it provided a very interesting insight and was a thoroughly enjoyable if somewhat sobering tour covering a large area of the grounds.
Although the car park and entrance area were extremely busy, once in the grounds it was very tranquil and calm. The church is well worth a visit and the guide book was very informative and absorbing.
Time flew by when we were there and we were glad we had plenty of time as with so much to see, a quick visit is unlikely to be very fruitful.
A fascinating experience and we will probably return in a couple of years to see how the grounds and trees have matured.

On behalf of our Group I would just like you to know how much we enjoyed our visit yesterday.
It really was an excellent trip for all of us, but especially for a number of our elderly members who had been national servicemen in their younger days and seen active service.
We all thought the 11am service in the chapel was beautiful and afterwards thoroughly enjoyed the very informative guided walk with Peter whose knowledge and enthusiasm enabled us to appreciate so much more than if we had strolled around unaccompanied, and which was also a good way to sharpen our appetites for the very nice lunch that followed.
So I would like to express our thanks to you for all your help in making the arrangements and to the other members of the NMA team for their part in providing us with a really memorable day out and, with so much to see, will certainly be making a return visit sometime in the future.
