There is so much to see it's difficult to know where to start. A member of staff summarised the different experiences available and he suggested he thought the train ride was helpful for a first visit as it gives a general view of the different memorials.
The restaurant offered a variety of choices and the prices were reasonable.

First visit to the arboretum. A beautiful, tranquil place. Entry is free. We paid £6 each to go on the train which takes about 45 mins and well worth it. Wheelchair friendly and brilliantly designed. We ran out of time and will be going back. Ate in restaurant reasonably priced. Well worth a visit.

Not a lot to say tbh an incredible place with great staff for some personal reflection and to remember them lost serving there county
The only down side is the restaurant is extremely expensive for what it’s producing and for a site cited buy veterans old and young this could be better

It is a very moving experience to go there and when the trees are fully mature I am sure it will be less windy. I was so moved by the touching little notes left by family members by their loved ones names. They also had a very nice restaurant - we had a carvery roast dinner and dessert for a reasonable price.

£4 parking or £6 on the day, we went on a tour, excellent at £7.50, there is a good restaurant with fair prices, very friendly and helpful staff. This is a very moving place to visit. There are lots of volunteers about to help find memorials. Everyone should go to thank our wonderful armed forces

A group of 43 seniors visited the NMA by coach on Friday 6th October and what an amazing place it is. The staff are more than helpful and the grounds and memorials leave a very lasting impression on all. The meal in the restaurant was up with Michelin rating and it is a "must visit" place that should be at the top of anyone's list.

The National Arboretum is well worth a visit.The grounds are excellent and well kept. The cooked. food in the restaurant is very good. I would recommend using the "train" around the site to see
most of the memorials, you can then chose which memorials to visit.I recommend a second visit would be needed to see all the memorials as the site is vast. There is no entry fee, but a donation would be appreciated.

Amazing humbling and emotional. staff are helpful, polite and knowledgeable. The land train tour is well worth it. Had 2 course Sunday lunch at onsite restaurant which was delicious and good value. Would recommend a visit. A worthy tribute and memorial to all those who have served and sacrificed.

Helpful staff and impressive and respectful siting of monuments to military and civil forces and arenas of war. A road train for small cost can take visitors around the huge site. There is a well stocked gift shop and restaurant.
Though close to Lichfield please note there is no bus route direct from Lichfield.

What an excellent place to visit, we spent more than 2 hours walking round the Arboretum & still didn't see everything, gives us an excuse to go back. Lovely visitor centre, friendly, helpful staff.The food in the restaurant was really good & not overpriced like a lot of places.
