Top line , free entry but a six pound parking charge. However we thoroughly enjoyed the walk around the park looking at the individual war remorials . The sculptures were fantastic , but we found it too much to take in and resorted to just enjoyed walking around the grounds with the dogs. The dogs are allowed but not on the monuments which was a little frustrating especially when there was so much bird poo in places the size of a medium dogs all over.
Well worth the visit especially on a lovely day.

Moving experience, suggest you take the train 50 mins of information takes you to areas you wouldn't see by walking. Brilliant.

A fantastic place to remember all the different forces, emergency servicesand civilian organisations - there are a lot more than you realise!
My sister, a friend and I started with tea and cake (of course) in the large, clean, well stocked and friendly cafe/ restaurant. Then we went to the gift shop, which is filled with memorabilia for young and old alike, whilst waiting for our time slot on the land rail.
The land rail, like old railway carriages was driven by a lovely friendly happy lady who we had a few laughs with . There was guided commentary from a prerecorded source, pointing out various monuments. Very informative and interesting.
For the rest of our day we walked around most of the 150 acres and saw many more memorials.
We also went into the Chapel (which is a lovely quiet place) for reflection
All the staff/guides, of which there are many, are very polite, approachable and helpful. They also are well informed as to where things are situated.
The Arboretum does not charge an entry fee, however there are boxes inside the building for those who would like to give a voluntary donation.
You do need to pay for the car park, a welcome bonus is that you can book to park for a reduced fee.
