I absolutely love this place. So peaceful and tranquil to walk around the grounds. Great for photos or to walk around and take in the beautiful sights and to remember all those who served and died and are still serving in the military today. Total respect for all

Absolutely stunning and extremely informative in a way that interests small children as well as us adults. We took a 3 year old and a 10 year old and our old dog for a look around, we did not expect this place to be the treasure that it is. It blew us away and i would 100% recommend visiting here. We were staying locally and decided to visit but i would say It is well worth travelling a long distance to visit as there is so much to see here and every single part is mesmerising whilst also paying respect to the fallen. A must see for every person!

A very moving experience, we visited during the Xmas lights, these are done so very tastefully, We definitely would recommend a visit, it allowed us to remember those we had lost, both recently and from the past.

Lovely place, peaceful & quiet with lots to see. Well maintained & manned busy staff who are very helpful. You'd need a good few hours to get round & see it all. Great cafe with really good food/choices, as well as hot drinks

Amazing place, watching it grow over the years. Walking around and seeing all the memorials, very thought provoking.

For me the Shot at Dawn memorial is most poignant...so many young lives takenby their own side simply because they were terrified. Nowadays this would be PTSD and support. :-(

Incredible evening visiting the Illuminations. Although the facilities described in the info were not spread throughout the grounds so there was a huge bottle neck at this point, which was very close to the end. This was the only downside.

Always enjoy a visit just to remember family who fought and were lost in conflict. Such a wonderful peaceful place and lovely facilities. My recent visit with my son and granddaughter was to the Guiding Lights show which was very good. Some clever interactive pieces delighted my granddaughter and the music was great. Well done!

Illuminations for Christmas were nice, but I’ve definitely been to better for the price.

Not enough choice of food outlets in my opinion, and although it has to be dark for the lights to look their best, the safety of the walkways in such darkness was questionable. Particularly for those vulnerable to falls.

Always nice to come visit, such a brilliant way to remember all those who have their lives and in such a lovely setting.

We have been many times and finally managed to do the Illuminated Arboretum experience which was magical. We were very lucky with the weather too.

Highly recommended for anyone especially if you have friends or relatives in the armed forces.
