What an amazing place to remember those we have lost .The ceremony was very emotional but beautifully done the grounds are absolutely stunning .We had a beautiful lady called Jane looking after us from start to finish and can honestly say she was absolutely perfect for our family .Every single person we met couldn’t do enough for all the families who attended on the 06.07.2023.A massive thank you to all the organisers and volunteers who helped make an emotional sad day so special for my family ,I will definitely come back with my family so they can experience what we have
Many thanks

We visited, they haue a ride to the wall, you can go any time you like. Well supported by the vets. Good dinning area. Check out the trenches and get a feel of what it was like waiting to die.

A beautiful and thoughtful experience to visit this site. So many monuments with symbolic meaning built into them, as well as the beautiful grounds and the river Tame alongside.

Amazing yet heartbreaking to realise how many people die through conflict. It’s a very peaceful place for contemplation yet not morbid in any way. We wouldn’t be the nation we are if it wasn’t for these people who fought for our futures. Very well kept and certainly worth a visit. On my last visit I saw the inaugural flight of the hurricanes before their retirement. A special moment

The Arboretum is beautiful, a green and wooded place with wonderful memorials for those who have given their lives for others. The Military, the Police, the Fire Service, the Coastguards and Civilians. Everyone should visit. The facilities are also very good. On this year's Armed Services Day a buggy bus was donated by the Motorbike Community so disabled can be driven around the inspiring Memorial, set above an impressive flight of steps, to those who have died in combat. There are also land trains that can take visitors around the spacious site. The restaurant offers cooked meals and snacks. You can take a your own food and eat in the grounds. There is no admission fee to the Aboretum.

What an amazing place to visit! There is an air of peace and serenity as you make your way around the many memorials, not all of which are military....The trees and flowers are spectacular, as are the diverse memorials.
There are plenty of staff on hand to give you information, direction, or just to have a quick chat, all professional, courteous, and very friendly. There are a couple of places available for refreshments, both lovely. There are plenty of conveniences at the centre which are clean and tidy, also a few portaloos around the grounds themselves. If you want a momento, there are lovely trinkets in the shops.
Well worth a visit!!! And doggies are welcome too👍

Been on our list to visit, for way too long! Just an amazing experience, the Volunteers and staff all were both very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The weather was unpredictable so we took the visitors train with a commentary, which was great, g cause we then knew where we wanted to prioritise to go. Beautifully cared for grounds and some fabulous installations, the Submariners one in particular. Although busy, were served with food very quickly with plenty of seating. Lots of places to sit and take in the surroundings and need to make another visit. Special mention to the Poppy Scotland team who were visiting, very informative and interesting
