My 1st visit and I found the staff very helpful and friendly. There is a fantastic restaurant serving good food and there is a separate coffee shop which is pleasant to, their tea cakes are huge! and tasty! The train around the The National Memorial Arboretum is well worth it then go by foot afterwards to look around.
And what a amazing chapel.

We regularly go to the arboretum we have seen many changes as it grows
This visit I took my grand daughter with us and she found it interesting
We took the road train around and even we saw parts we have not seen before
We are in the restaurant and food was good value
We will continue our visits as we grow old and hope grand daughter will want to re visit

Visited (again) on Weds 28th March. As ever the staff and volunteers were attentive and helpful. We ate in the restaurant and the food was good as was the service. This is a lovely place to visit although to fully appreciate all the memorials it's best done in decent weather or at least no rain!! In the words of a certain well known actor..I'll be back..

Lovely peacefull place with many helpfull and knowledgeable personnel eager to assist. A large area to cover would need more than a single visit.
I was there on a beautiful day. Rain would not be good for visiting this manorial. Excellent restaurant.
Restrooms: Clean and in good order
Dog-friendliness: Dogs welcome on a lead. Some forces dogs have their own place of remberence.

This place is amazing. I was taken here as a surprise and only managed a couple of hours before we had to go, I will be returning for more. It has everything you need and more, and you could easily spend the whole day there. It has a cafe, restaurant, rest area and lots and lots of things to see. The parking is £3 and to get in is free. A great day for individuals and families.

Really lovely place. Great for a gentle wander - so many interesting memorials to see. Fab countryside - very peaceful and relaxing. The kids loved being able to run around and explore too.
Had a nice time on the land train tour - very informative and enjoyable for all ages.
Excellent facilities by way of a restaurant and coffee shop.

I usually attend the Ride To The Wall, an annual event that raises funds to support the Arboretum.
When I have visited on quieter days, the whole atmosphere is very emotional, for me, more so than when attending the RTTW.
The facilities, including a cafe and self service restaurant,care of a high quality.
I can not recommend a visit highly enough.

Despite being 5 minutes late for Sunday lunch as I arrived at 2.35pm the kind staff and chef consented to let me have a lunch and this turned out to be a real treat of Turkey and Beef with scrumptious roast potatoes. They are a very friendly crew who run the restaurant and are always willing to help. Definitely worth a visit to enjoy a roast dinner any day.

In January 2018, Richard Barlow said about Lichfield Cathedral
Beautiful building in a wonderful location, also very peaceful and a lovely place to just sit and contemplate no matter if you are of a religious bent or not, fascinating history, helpful staff and if you're so inclined a nice tea room /restaurant and a good gift shop close by, the rest of Lichfield is close by so could be incorporated into a really nice day out.

I have visited here many many times and still like walking around and seeing how it is growing. It is not just the trees that are growing, it is the memorials and features, which makes no two visits the same. The entrance, shop and restaurant all give value for money and the chapel and exhibits will interest even the most sceptical. As for the main memorial, I go to see names of those that I have known.
