It as to be the best place for remembering our fallen by far. There's no point click watching when you visit because to take in all the memorials and take advantage of the beautiful views you need a whole day easy.

It is the place to visit history about war and regiments.

I’ve not actually been here, though my Grandfather - a WW2 British naval veteran recommended it to me highly. But looking at a majority of 5-star reviews and a generous overall 4.8 Google score, I was fascinated to then examine the very small minority negative 1-star reviews. Let’s see how pathetic and querulous some of the general public are - after all this is just a war memorial, a place of reflection and contemplation; just a space for one to pay their respects to those brave souls who have fallen before us. Well apparently the place is non-dog friendly, thank you for that - like a pet animal can fathom public grief and social history.
My review, people are douche-bags and also ‘Google reviewing’ memorial spaces is frankly nonsensical; reviewing them badly is at best churlishly pedantic. Nice one.

What a moving, beautiful setting to remember our wonderful dead service people. The central setting really moved me emotionally. The statues of injured soldiers does put a lump in your throat.

A peaceful and inspiring place to wander around whether or not you have a specific memorial to visit (my dad was a Bevin Boy so that area was a must for us). We had a good weather day for each of our two visits, but you may need decent shoes, brolly etc. Surprising how far you can end up walking (though there is a land train and, I think, mobility scooters) but you can get a tea etc at the excellent visitor centre. Supremely knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff/volunteers (a big thank you to the lady who pointed out the divide in the wall through which the sun passes at 11:00 on 11/11 - an easily missed feature). Lots of subtle planting themes to look out for, too.
