Last went 10 years ago.....could not believe how much it has changed. Spacious visitor centre, excellent restaurant and shop, lots more trees and memorials, all well organised, clean and well signposted. A great day out in lovely surroundings.

Spent a day at the memorial but could easily have spent a second and still not have visited all the memorials The 11am service was very poignant and put into perspective the reason behind the memorial. Knowledgeable and friendly staff
Good value restaurant that was priced to encourage visitors to use it rather that exploit them

I enjoyed to service in the chapel at 11 am with a Roger a volunteer. I really enjoyed our guide Peter explaining and pointing out everything as we walked around. I enjoyed the refreshment in the restaurant.
Most of all I enjoyed the calm, peaceful and serenity, to walk around the monuments each unique.
Everyone should visit.

In March 2015, Tigerlily M said about Lichfield Cathedral
This Cathedral is one of my favorites, it has such character, the tower opens at certain times of the year for the more energetic. There is always something going on and there is a great little shop opposite. Begin so close to Lichfield there are plenty of cafe;s bars and restaurants as well as stunning architecture.

I have visited the Arboretum from its beginnings and have seen it grow over the years as I am lucky enough to live nearby. A day can be spent there seeing all the beautiful memorials and relaxing in the restaurant. Good idea to use one of the buggy tours or comfy shoes.

Lovely location. Beautifully kept . Dedicated to all who gave their lives in Defence of Our Country, irrespective of Rank or Colour. Plenty of Memorials dedicated to the various Services that served during the wars. Very nice spacious Restaurant serving a good selection of food. It is a very large site.

Was amazed at the size of this. A thought provoking place to meander around, loved walking along the river. It was extremely busy on the Saturday we visited, restaurant was a little overrun, and didn't have much gluten free for one of us. Shop had some nice merchandise.

A lovely quiet, peaceful place.
The grounds are very well kept and they are extending the visitor centre at the moment which is looking very impressive.
There is also a restaurant where we had a lovely meal but you can also have snacks. Would recommend the roast dinner.

This memorial to those who have fallen in war. There are so many tributes and we were glad to go on a buggy tour with a most helpful, friendly and knowledgeable guide, who explained the different tributes. It is very modern and quite stark. The large restaurant was welcome on a very cold day!

The restaurant was lovely too, good food and value for money. The afternoon tea was delicious.
