Really lovely place. Great for a gentle wander - so many interesting memorials to see. Fab countryside - very peaceful and relaxing. The kids loved being able to run around and explore too.<br>Had a nice time on the land train tour - very informative and enjoyable for all ages.<br>Excellent facilities by way of a restaurant and coffee shop.

What an impressive place to visit. If you have never been then you should. You can spend as much or as little time as you wish. The name of this place says it all so nothing to add except you will be amazed by the wonderful experience and size. There is a restaurant and shop on site. Parking is £3 per day. Dont drive past without stopping off here.

The new buildings are a vast improvement on the previous one, with the main reception, shop & restaurant area having more space for visitors.<br>The prices in the restaurant tend to be a little higher than those available in other businesses in the surrounding area.<br>When visiting, you need to spend more than a couple of hours here to appreciate & see all the various memorials.

In July 2019, Mary Wheeler said about Lichfield Cathedral
It's a lovely city with plenty to see and do. It has a wide variety of shops and restaurants. You can visit the cathedral, sit by the Minster Pool and soak up the history all around you. However the District Council levied a street licence fee on traders at the festival market of £21, which in addition to the stall fee, lead to many traders not coming. Shame!

Everyone should pay a visit, it is unique.
Set in the counrtyside and with river walks and vast areas of woodland, it pays tribute to all our fallen war heroes over the generations.
On site it is possible to enjoy a meal or simply a drink at the restaurant. The range of food is improving, but you are not visiting for that reason.
The Arboretum is there to pay ones repects and it is a living growing entity.

Easy to park and staff welcoming at the door. There's a £3 parking fee for the day.
The Arboretum is free to walk around but there are other activities available that you need to pay for. The grounds are very well kept and there's probably enough to see to pass on a good hour or two.
There's a cafe/restaurant on site and gift shop for browsing around filled with lovely poppy themed goods.

Have been before, but not for a couple of years. There as been lots of work carried out since then. The restaurant has been enlarged bright and spacious. It's clean and airy. The choice of food and drinks are reasonable. Lots more to see in the grounds and this time found the Corp where my husband and I were stationed. We would recommend a visit there are lots for everyone to see and enjoy. You won't be disappointed.

In November 2014, Wiscasset said about National Memorial Arboretum
Very nice visit apart from the weather. Many memorials commemorating people who have died in all wars since the First World War to present day. Both large and small memorials set in hundreds of acres of land. Too many to see on a cold day but will go back. Very good restaurant serving a variety of food hot and cold. Nice gift shop.
