A top wellness location, if you are directly affected or wish to gain insight & understanding you be made to feel very much welcome here. Facilities are top notch, whatever your needs your be met. Family and dog friendly environment again a top location which I cant fault. Staff work tirelessly and will help Amy way they can on you and your family's journey.

Very large house full of interesting exhibits. Well worth the visit. Toilets rather poor.

The place in general is always fantastic. Staff friendly well organised. Parking sorted easily. The down side was the food. Not butter on rolls bacon cold at point of delivery and expensive for the quality. In past it is usually good. They were just not ready for a large intake that was planned.

An important part of our culture as a nation, the Arboretum is a must visit for everyone, young and old. Our children love exploring and reading the monuments, finding out more information about the different regiments and people - something that makes me immensely proud.

Restrooms: Clean and tidy, easy to find

Picnic area: Lovely spots to eat your own picnic, but there is a restaurant and a coffee bar too

This is an absolute must visit. The staff are absolutely lovely and want you to enjoy your visit. There is so much to see and learn about, the history in the Arboretum is amazing and with over 400 memorials to visit, there is plenty of history to learn. We took the train that takes you around most of the memorials which gives you a commentary, this proved to be a great way to see everything.

Attended a dedication service for the 40th anniversary of the founding of the St. John Fellowship. Very impressed by the facilities, a very well stocked gift shop, and excellent catering facilities. The parkland is extensive with many memorials. Unfortunately we only had time to see a small section. We will be back again when hopefully we will be able to explore further.

A day is not enough to take in wonderful memorials and tributes. Cafe and restaurant reasonable choice and prices. Knowledgeable staff.

Restrooms: Spotless and easily accessible for all.

Dog-friendliness: Not a problem.

Wonderful time spent at the Arboretum, we had a wheelchair user with us the staff and volunteers were very helpful lady at the reception desk provided a blanket beautiful but chilly wind, especially the lady who drove us to the top of the steps and down again when we were ready I'm so sorry I didn't get her name. Volunteers are so knowledgeable and happy to share their information, take family photos for us.
A fabulous day from start to finish will definitely return soon . Thank you all.

We love coming to NMA whenever we get the chance. Easy to book car parking and so well organised on arrival. The grounds and memorials are beautiful and well cared for, a fitting tribute to all our veterans past and present. The staff and volunteers are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and the coffee shop is excellent value. My grandchildren love the activities on offer and the train, can't wait to come again and have a 'chat' with my late father who wore his Burma Star with pride in the dedicated memorial garden. Thank you to all at NMA.

Went for an afternoon out as not been before. Had lunch in the cafe, which was nice, with reasonable prices and a good selection. The staff were friendly and informative and made for a pleasant visit. The weather on the day was patchy rain, which limited where we went, but when it did clear, we went up to the large memorial in the middle of the site. One of the highlights for me was the acoustics in the side part of the circle. The echos were really amazing, almost made it sound like your footsteps were marching feet. I'm sure this was intentional by the designer of the memorial. Very cool. I will return when the weather is better and hopefully get to see all the parts that we missed. There is also a land train which will take you around the site for a small charge. Apparently, it can accommodate wheelchairs too. Looking forward to the next visit.
