Visited the NMA for second time last weekend, the grounds are a perfect tribute to those who laid their lives for the freedom we currently have, for those who have lost friends and family it gives a place to think and remember them.
The grounds ate impeccably looked after and the staff couldn't have been more friendly, respectful and helpful, I'd recommend this place to anyone.

A fantastic event where Bikers show there gratitude to fallen members of the armed forces. The arboretum is a beautiful place to visit and the wall of names is a site to behold. The grounds are well kept and a pleasure to walk around . The RTTW event is a fantastic day where bikers from all over the world come to share their respect for the fallen, this annual event generates a large sum of money for the Arboretum donated by the bikers. The 2016 event has just passed and i cant wait for 2017.

My 9th Ride To The Wall, together with thousands of fellow bikers and like minded people to Remember Our Fallen. Despite the weather, it was a fantastic, humbling event. ALWAYS a pleasure to visit here at any time. Tremendous place help 'keep you grounded'.

A remarkable place to visit especially if in the company of friends with similar interests. It is a large but friendly place with ongoing development. It is often quiet apart from current expansion work and the usual work associated with maintaining an arboretum. On one day of the year it will be exceptionally busy that is the first Saturday in October where thousands of motorbikes, trikes, scooters arrive to pay respect to the nations fallen. If you don't like to wait a long time for refreshments or toilets don't visit on this day. Sadly they have no control over weather conditions. Allow a full day at least to get around all the memorials unless you are only coming to see one specific memorial. I just wish I could get there more often myself.

Been coming here since 2010, Ride To The wall is an amazing experience, I go to place a cross with a friend that "can no longer ride by my side". It is an awe inspiring day,
If you want to see a massive tribute to our fallen, then the 1st of October then come to Ride to The Wall. 20,00 people fall silent during the last post, meeting many friends old and new. Also go on quieter days,it's not a depressing type atmosphere, it's reflection and rememberance, and the staff are FANTASTIC. You will see people laughing, enjoying time there, That's what it's meant to be.
The new visitor centre will be open in a few weeks, I will be riding down again then.

Attended the NMA last Saturday with a few other Motorcyclists!! to attend the annual Ride to the Wall, (RTTW) as always on this event it was teeming with like minded Visitors and as always the Staff of the NMA were Helpful, and Cheery, despite the Weather, can't wait to return Myself for next Years RTTW, and am going to come sometime before that to have a quieter closer look. Roll on Next Year and thanks to everybody at the NMA, and of course the RTTW Organisers for the Efforts that went into making this a great Day. BZ.

Having heard so much about this location, we felt it was somewhere we wanted to experience for ourselves and we were not disappointed. It is a memorial worthy of all those it represents. It is not just a war memorial, but so much more, as it represents many individual group memorials in one place. It was well worth the train tour of the site as there was so much information to absorb. The tour also explained the significance of the memorabilia used in the construction of various memorials. It was also encouraging to see memorials from colonial countries who contributed to the British empires ear effort.
The site has ample car parking, and good facilities in the way of toilets and restaurants. Whilst we were there we had several fly pasts from the RAF of both Hercules aircraft And two Chinook helicopters. This is a must see for all generations as part of people's education.
