National Memorial Arboretum
Latest Reviews
An incredibly moving and thought provoking visit , enhanced massively by our knowledgeable and enthusiastic volunteer guide. Almost too moving to be able to fully appreciate in one visit. Will try and go again at a different time of year to enjoy the many trees in full foliage. Go.

Really impressive place to visit with lots of poignant information about wars fought and allies lost. What really was sad was the memorial to soldiers who were "shot at dawn". Many of these young men suffering with shell shock. Post humorously cleared of their ill perceived wrong doings.
We booked the parking online, which saves a bit of money. There are two cafes, one which does have some dog friendly tables. However, there are lots of tables and chairs plus covered shelters if you wish to take your own packed lunch.
Staff very knowledgeable about the various areas of interest plus Staff also very friendly
Well worth a visit

Visiting at night during the X-Mas lights is awesome and once on the hill at the end , it will take your breath away, at night with a clear sky it is like a cathedral honouring the fallen. Especially the empty wall that will unfortunately full up over time makes you think

A wealth of information and memories, from all periods. Well worth a visit, great facilities, large open spaces, plenty of rest places for the less energetic.
It is a full day out.

We have visited here three times so far. It is very spacious and peaceful. It helps us remember those who have passed, but it isn't a morbid place.
It is a large area and takes a good few hours to get around. It is very flat and seems good for wheelchairs, push chairs etc. There is also a small train that can take you around.
There is a spacious cafe with both indoor and outdoor seating where you can stop and reflect on what you have just experienced.

Visited on windy and cloudy day, so didn't have a full experience when there, but despite this, I found the arboretum a wonderful place for reflection whilst walking among the trees and monuments. The walks can be assisted by small train and golf buggies for those struggling to walk far. The cafe has a good variety of snacks and drinks. I would recommend to anyone.

I didn't realise how big this place is, the grounds are well set out, and maintained, good paths and a few porta loos doted about. Grounds dog friendly, and so is the cafe.
Definitely worth a visit, i stayed about 4 hours and still more to see.

The main centre piece memorial is stunning in its simplicity. I visited on a quiet day which made it very peaceful and spent 3 hours slowly walking around. The staff were very helpful and the indoor
Exhibits really interesting. Could have spent 5 hours there taking it all in. Very nice food and drinks area as well.

Parking £6. I gave a generous donation inside . The restaurant is very good. Lots of seating . Nice atmosphere. Its so important we never forget those who died for us. Please pay this special place a visit.
