Toilets: A few portable toilets dotted around the site, and fixed toilets within the building.
Picnic area: Plenty of areas to sit and picnic, if it's not raining.

A wonderful memorial to the armed forces personnel we've lost since the second world war. Free entry but all donations and purchases help to keep it that way. Great place and great staff. Attended Ride To The Wall yet again (always first Saturday in October) and took friends with me. A fantastic day as always and the NMA looked after all of us as usual. The main memorial is for the armed forces but the site is full of memorials to organisations, events and individuals. A must see and don't forget to donate.

First off, Iāve visited several times and the place is a fantastic memorial to Armed Forces. I fully support the purpose of it.
However, the event they run yearly with thousands of motorbikes arriving, blocks the roads, especially the already roadwork riddled A38, motorbikes weaving in and out of traffic, people severely delayed to get to appointments and unsure how any emergency vehicles could get through. Already an accident on the other side involving cars. Never seen traffic this bad on the A38 and it made me late for a medical appointment.
I called the office to explain my concerns but signal almost immediately my signal dropped, so I ended the call, not sure if they thought someone just called up and hung up (there was no signal). The next day on a Sunday!! I had a random call from their Events Director āa courtesy callā which I hadnāt asked for, seems like they were annoyed at people giving feedback. Very strange experience and not necessary, almost as if they donāt like people giving feedback, so itās getting added here. Itās put me off visiting again.

A totally fantastic day!! Ride to the wall, a brilliant ride, wonderful company. So so well organised and marshalled. We will definitely be going again next year.
The memorial and surrounding area is just simply superb and huge. Ever so well kept and maintained. I thinknwe were all a little over whelmed by how expansive it is and you'd need 3 days to throughly see everything; although maybe even a week to really appreciate all the memorials!
Toilets: Very clean and plenty of them! Even for the ladies!

Well worth a visit. Spent a few hours looking round. Saw various areas and tributes - Navy, Submarinars and Polish. Also "shot at dawn" very moving. Highly recommended.

We hired a training room at this venue and the facilities were very good with good food. What I did see of the rest of the venue, I thought that I'd like to come and see it as it looks fascinating.

I wish more people knew about the NMA, what an absolute treasure. It's a beautiful and very moving day our. If you can, make sure you have a free tour as the guides are incredibly engaging and knowledgeable.

Tranquil and immaculately kept. A perfect place to remember those that gave their all.
Cafe is lovely, hot food counter as well as pre packed sandwiches and pastries.
The shop with keepsakes , cups, bags etc and RBL stuff to buy. We'll worth a visit.
Toilets: Clean, tidy and modern

Went here last wk end, first thing I didnāt realise how big the place was dispose this I think you need a couple of visits to cover the whole site properly
I found the areas which I was looking for and paid my respects
It is an amazing place to visit
If you pay you can ride a train around a lot of the site and you get a comentry as you go around the site, they also have mobility scooters that can be booked for you to use as well
Has a restaurants on site with hot cooked food, slightly disappointed the bacon rolls finish along with the breakfast at 1130
Personally I thought it was a tad expensive
There are people outside that can help you and give you direction as well as on the inside
On the whole a very good day out

An amazing place.
Seeing all the memorials, especially the wall were truly a memorable experience and a fitting tribute to all who died so we could live.
Words cannot express our time there
