I'm glad I had the chance to visit the Aboretum. Powerful emotion of both pride and sorrow. I would urge anyone thinking if visiting to do so and make sure you see the Shot at Dawn memorial.

Well laid out and done fantastic volunteers who work there. There are so many memorials (not all military). Will with a visit.
Dog-friendliness: Dogs are allowed, but keep them on a short lead as there are buggies for the old and disabled. Also some people who visit will have mental health problems, so please realise that some patrons will need your empathy.

A fantastic memorial to all those who gave their lives in service of the country which would take several days to completely cover.

Visited (again) on Weds 28th March. As ever the staff and volunteers were attentive and helpful. We ate in the restaurant and the food was good as was the service. This is a lovely place to visit although to fully appreciate all the memorials it's best done in decent weather or at least no rain!! In the words of a certain well known actor..I'll be back..

Very moving experience. The whole grounds are very well maintained and cared for. Our Sunday lunch was excellent and good value for money. Great shop and helpful and friendly staff. A very good and inspirational day.

Very thought provoking walking around on a crisp winter morning.

As an ex military man I found this an extremely interesting visit and I would have spent longer but I had to be at friends by a certain time. There were memorials to a huge number of regiments, organisations and public services which deserved a longer viewing. My only drawback was there are not enough hard paths and we had to walk over waterlogged grass to get to view everything. So top tip: Well worth the visit but go when it's dry and hasn't been raining for sometime.

Lovely peaceful place. We visited just after the Queen passed, so lots of tributes around a tree planted by the Queen a few years ago. Lots of memorials and monuments to organisations and individuals that make up the very fabric of the UK. Some very poignant, particularly one dedeicated to soldiers executed in the First World War. Some of them just boys. Those in power should hang their heads in shame...but was it ever thus?

Visited with the grandchildren and was offered a sheet for the Stick Man trail at reception. Sadly when we were part through the path was waterlogged and impassable in many places so we abandoned our walk. Perhaps reception staff could be briefed about this to avoid disappointment and two children with wet, cold feet! Otherwise, I am well acquainted with the Arboretum which is a very special place for so many.

Today we did the Stick Man Trail and what a beautiful place for children and adults alike. The large stick man in the woods was fab and very exciting to see for young children. We booked the Stick man cinema showing which was super, played in the sensory garden, ate lunch in the restaurant and went on the land train. The ground and gardens are landscaped beautifully and very well looked after, we could even appreciate this is on a very wet, gloomy day! The land train was so interesting and a fantastic way to get around the grounds as it is a enormous place! I wish we had time to do the craft activities being hosted for half term this week but we enjoyed being outdoors so much, despite the weather. All of the volunteers/staff today were absolutely fantastic, on the desk, in the reception area, the lady's cleaning the restaurant, in the cinema room, the parking staff which all helps you have a lovely day out and experience here. We will definitely be coming back as a family and it's brilliant to have such a wonderful day out full of activities for the children in the holidays. Thank you to everyone who made our day today (lady with the baby boy and 3 year old girl)
