Very humbling experience, glad I had a tissue to get them bits of grit out of my eyes 😢. I will be back on the RTTW 🏍️🥀.

A venue everyone should attend at least once in their life.

I’ve not actually been here, though my Grandfather - a WW2 British naval veteran recommended it to me highly. But looking at a majority of 5-star reviews and a generous overall 4.8 Google score, I was fascinated to then examine the very small minority negative 1-star reviews. Let’s see how pathetic and querulous some of the general public are - after all this is just a war memorial, a place of reflection and contemplation; just a space for one to pay their respects to those brave souls who have fallen before us. Well apparently the place is non-dog friendly, thank you for that - like a pet animal can fathom public grief and social history.
My review, people are douche-bags and also ‘Google reviewing’ memorial spaces is frankly nonsensical; reviewing them badly is at best churlishly pedantic. Nice one.

It is the place to visit history about war and regiments.

It as to be the best place for remembering our fallen by far. There's no point click watching when you visit because to take in all the memorials and take advantage of the beautiful views you need a whole day easy.

We love it here and on armed forces day it is even more exciting for the children with lots of free activities. On a normal day we enjoy walking the grounds, playing in the play areas and the pond/den area. There is almost always something on for the children.

Had a very enjoyable day at the Memorial Arboretum. Nice place to eat either a meal, or just coffee and cake.

Very interesting place. If you have any relatives who have been involved ask the staff and they will direct you to the correct memorial.

Whilst you have probably seen this place on television, that doesn't prepare you for the reality. It has an excellent visitors centre with gives and staffing available and a cafeteria for lunch.

The grounds are extensive, with the many group memorial gardens arranged around the central memorial mound.

I recommend for a first visit that you take a trip on the land train to familiarise yourself with the lady out. I took the opportunity to place a memorial cross for my grandfather on the memorial to civilians killed in service during WW2.

To showdowns this place, allow a day for your visit!
