Superb day out and very solemn. The memorials are very moving and the staff are very helpful and ready to answer any questions. Each of the tree's are dedicated and there 100's of them. Well worth a trip, free to enter and accept donations.<br>The restaurant was well equipped, clean and well staffed, the Sunday roast was £9 and superb.

This really is a lovely place to visit. Hundreds of memorials set in gorgeous gardens. So peaceful and reflective and you can see great care and dedication is put in to looking after the place.<br>There is plenty of parking available and the cafe serves great food at a reasonable price. The gift shop has some lovely items too.

Wasn't what I expected but then that's my ignorance. Once we started to walk around it was very interesting, I found the polish memorial particularly moving with so much information carved into the stone, it really helped you understand what they went through. I also found the memorials for the Asian campaigns of the 2nd world war a very stark reminder how people suffered under the Japanese, something which is often forgotten. My dad spent much of his naval career in the war in that part of the world and seeing the photo exhibition was especially close from my family perspective. It's a very large area to visit so pace yourself. Lovely food in the restaurant and staff are lovely.

What a place. Arrived around 9.30 on a Sunday and spent 4 hours that just flew by.
We attended the 2 minutes silence in the chapel at 11am. With a 15 minute talk after about how the site started. The speaker was enthusiastic and wanted to share so much.
We took the train round the site. £6 per adult which was worth every penny. In this very hot weather it allowed us to see and learn about so many of the memorials we would not have gotten to.
Every volunteer we came across was so helpful and polite, such an accet to the arboretum. We spent 4hours but you could spend all day.
The cafe sells food and drink at a reasonable price with options to suit everyone. Unlike many places there are lots of tables to accommodate the large number of people who visit each day.
You must visit.

We went for Armed Forces Weekend expecting to spend a day there, we went very day Friday to Sunday and enjoyed every minute. This is Remembrance at it's very best. It was so peaceful and moving. Very well laid out with so much to see. With it being Armed Forces Weekend there were a lot of activities and events, including entertainment and a Spitfire flypast, excellent. We are in the cafe, which has an excellent, tasty selection of sandwiches and meals. Definitely s weekend to remember.
