What a beautiful place to visit and remember past conflicts and the people who had their lives taken from them, and what for?? and also remember the ones who survived those conflicts. There is a lovely restaurant there and a church.

This a beautiful, serene arboretum, with memorials to all services (army, navy, air, police, fire and medical) dotted around the landscape. I am not given much to sentimentality, but as a tribute and a reminder that people have made the ultimate sacrifice to keep us safe and well, it is a powerful monument. I only wish that it were more were widely known so that more could experience it.

Free admission but £6 for parking. Worth a visit if you are in the area. Gorgeous gardens with deep meanings. Very moved by all the monuments. This place is family-friendly and highly accessible for those with mobility difficulty.

Three friends visited. It was a hot J uly day. Car park is £6 for the day. Reception is a clean, light and airy place, staff are friendly and explain everything, entrance is free. There are lots of volunteer guides who are very knowledgeable. If you are unable to walk the huge site, there are either land trains with commentaries or buggies, there are also guided walking tours. The map given at reception is useful and you can wander freely. The grounds and memorials are very well looked after and interesting. There is a small Stick Man trail for the little ones and a play area. The coffee shop sells reasonably priced drinks and cakes etc, the restaurant sells meals and we opted for homemade soup and a roll, reasonably priced at £7 which included a soft drink (it makes a change not to be riipped off! The gift shop has some beautiful items, also reasonably priced (I spent too much)! The Arboretum is a charity and there are plenty of opportunities to give generously. Would take a picnic next time! A lovely day out

Need more than 1 day to take full advantage of the gardens. Great Land train takes you passed keys memorials.

Map could do with updating with more of the general memorial areas on it. As they do seem to be in set areas.

Shame there doesn't seem to many for the RN ships sank in WW1.

Coffee shop and restaurant with good choices except needs more sugar free cold drinks for diabetics. Only option was diet coke.

Some staff a bit stand off ish, mainly the car park man who told me my 6m motorhome would fit in a normal parking space, think I know better. Make sure you book parking in advance as £2 cheaper.

Overall an excellent visit will ho back and look at other areas.

Would advise if you are elderly that you take one of the land trains they have there because there's a lot too see, plus you get a running commentary as it goes round .
