I enjoy the warm and welcoming reception aside from the great care and space provided for more vehicles and caravans.

An amazing place with many knowledgeable volunteers around . Visited on two days which was needed to cover the whole area. Land train with commentary gave a good overview of most of site . At 11.00 everyday short moment of Remembrance held in the beautiful Chapel followed by a short talk on the past, present and future of the Arboretum. Good cafe serving hot and cold food. There is a Stickman trail for young children to follow. Highly recommend visiting the National Arboretum.

Lovely sunny day and pleasant walk around the national memorial arboretum. It’s sad to think that so many service personnel have been lost in the pursuit of noble aims, but a fitting epitaph to their memory and sacrifice.

Ride to the wall October. Over 7,000 motorbikes raising money for the fallen. What a great place this is, been on my bucket list for awhile. The grounds are well kept with plenty of seating around so you can take time to sit and reflect. The walls with the names of the fallen make you realise how lucky we are and sad they didn't make it home. There is a large cafe and a museum, it's not very large but good to see. Public transport on the day is not good as the road going into Alrewas village is closed because of all the bikes. So I had to get off the bus at another village and come back, as I bus takes a different route it comes in on another road to the Alrewas village. There is a bit of a walk from the bus stop. Maybe they need a shuttle bus from Lichfield

Took a party of 33 to NMA today. Volunteer guides were informative, funny, professional and very helpful sorting out timings due to our late arrival. The lunch was excellent with good choices of meals and vegetables cooked to perfection. An excellent day out.

We spent a wonderful couple of hours here. A beautiful place, a respectful and inclusive memorial to so many. We barely saw a fraction of the place and will return. Highly recommended

I attended a part of the Ride To The Wall.
It was emotional and well attended. The venue had flooded two days before 12500 people turned up on 7500 motorcycles. Despite that the venue was beautifully presented and a real oasis of calm and reflection. Cafes toilets prices .... nothing to complain about... all reasonable prices, clean and plentiful.
Thanks you NMA and RTTW for getting me there.

My partner and I visited the arboretum today (Tuesday 8th October). We arrived at the opening time and spent a total of 4.5 hours there. We saw the majority of the memorials making it all the way to the end of the site to see the Great War Christmas Truce memorial. Of course there were undoubtedly some we missed as there is so much to see and appreciate. It was a beautiful place of reflection and one I’d been wanting to visit for some time.
One of the guides/ team at the arboretum whose name badge was Malcolm Adam’s was really friendly and informative. We first bumped into him at the top of the armed forces memorial and again at the end of our visit near the memorial for the Hawks where he gave us some insight about the memorial. Thanks to him for making our visit so enjoyable.
If you’re thinking about whether it’s worth the trip it most certainly is.

Toilets: Excellent, clean and airy, plus various conveniences around the whole area.
Dog-friendliness: Have brought our dog on a previous occasion - not only a good idea but means we could stay longer! Didn't spot any pooch fouling - good!
