The National Memorial Arboretum is a very interesting place to visit. It lies in quite a large area, so you may find that one visit is not enough. There really is so much to see! I have been several times, and any time of year is good. It is so different through the seasons, from Spring blossoms and Daffodils to Summer Poppies to Autumn colours. There are land trains, and guided talks etc which go into great detail to explain various exhibits. I found these quite fascinating! It is mainly on the flat, with decent paths all round. Wheelchair friendly too, as you can imagine it was built with Veterans in mind. Not just a Memorial to the armed forces, but to anyone involved doing their bit during conflicts, (Police, NHS, Coal Miners, Railwaymen etc) and also to victims of terrorism. There is a "Twin Towers" Memorial here. The wall at the main monument is quite a sobering sight. All the names of members of the armed forces who have lost their lives since World War 2. There's usually plenty of volunteers about who will happily answer any questions. Entry is free, but you must pay for parking. This is cheaper if you book online through the website. It is dog friendly, although dogs are restricted from certain areas (Main Monument and wall etc).
We had an amazing day out at the arboretum. We had a mixed family group from 89year olds to 3 year olds and a dog. We had a fantastic day there, they strike the atmosphere perfectly with somber areas and moments but encourages the young people to learn and be fun and look at the wildlife around the arboretum. The dog was able to walk round all bar two places which were perfectly reasonable and there were bins and toilets everywhere needed. . The staff were nice, accessibility ♿ was at the forefront of the staffs mind with buggys to the top, toilets and ramps everywhere.
Beautiful and peaceful place to visit. Time for reflection and to honour those that gave their lives for us. Dog friendly and lots of paths around so that you can go at your own pace and visit the memorials that you want to see. There are over 400 memorials, set in landscaped woodland and gardens. Cafe and coffee shop at the visitor centre with lots of seating inside and outside. Staff were very friendly and helpful also there to help
A really beautiful and peaceful place. Many of the monuments are stunning, and really honour the memory of those people they represent. We paid a small amount extra for the land train tour. This allowed us to cover most of the site, albeit in not a huge amount of detail. The commentary onboard was very interesting and informative. I had no idea the main feature of the armed forces memorial has a solar feature built in which allows a shaft of light to illuminate a central plinth at 11am on November 11th each year. Would recommend it to anyone to visit and pay respects to those who fought for freedom. Money raised by car parking and tours goes to the British legion.
The National Memorial Arboretum is more than just a collection of memorials; it's a sanctuary. As a veteran, finding a place that balances honouring the fallen with a sense of living peace is rare. Here, it’s achieved perfectly. The grounds are immaculate, and the quiet respect that blankets the area is palpable. The Armed Forces Memorial is, of course, a powerful and moving centrepiece, but take the time to explore the smaller, regimental plots—each tells a story. What stands out is the attitude of the staff and volunteers. There's a tangible, shared understanding and respect for the military community. It’s a place where you can truly reflect without feeling like a tourist. An absolutely essential visit for any serving personnel or veteran seeking connection and quiet contemplation.
Lovely place. Possibly originated out of some blue sky meeting on ways to spend lottery money, who knows, but it's fascinating and moving to wander round and see the different memorials. Some regiments clearly just scraped together enough for a plaque, others have come up with impressive designs. The main monument to members of the armed forces who have died since WW2 is spectacular and impactful - we also loved the ones in these photos - for the Royal Navy, children evacuees and the Police.
So worth a visit, miles of paths, poignent memorials to the fallen. Must visit the "Shot at Dawn" memorial, so many young men 😞 Lovely cafe ... hot choc is fab. Take spare shoes in wet weather it can be muddy and slippy. Parking good .. top tip ... pay beforehand .. save yourself £3 (£5 instead of £8) Everything else is free ... except cafe and shop x oh and the train ... but worth the trip round.
Wonderful place, I always really enjoy visiting. The last visit was very quiet, peaceful just after rain so well timed. Lunch was also very good, the scones, dare I say were as good as the National Trust ones.

Nice short walk to the bird hide. There's a stony path that leads to the bird hide that runs alongside the lake. The path has a few big, deep puddles that usually don't stop you from walking. But they're likely to flood in heavy rain. The lake is home to a variety of birds, including some winter visitors such as fieldfares. Some of the other birds that can be found there are Comman pochard, grey herons, teals, and Canada geese. The car park has been damaged by heavy rain, leaving a deep scar on one side. Please be careful. There is a picnic bench next to the car park where you can see most of the lake.
Lovely easy walk, beautiful scenery and free car park. A few seats to stop and take in view of the lake, as well as 3 bird hides. Only criticism is the bird table in front of the 1st bird hide is completely inaccessible to put bird feed on which we had brought with us, very overgrown. Interesting sculpture but unable to find any information about it until I came home and googled it, apparently it represents Trisentona a goddess from prehistoric times marking the spiritual influence of the confluence of 3 rivers Mease, Tame and Trent. This area is on a flood plane and also right next to a busy railway line. We went on a dry sunny day and saw plenty of bird life and butterflies. Worth a visit if you’re in the area but wouldn’t make a special journey.
Atmospheric scenes, lovely walk to Trisentona goddess statue. Easy free parking
Nice quiet place to go to commune with nature. Try to avoid dog walker times. Beautiful lake but minimal waterfowl in my experience. Wear walking boots if possible.
Very nice place to reflect by the waters edge with a nice evening sunset
Croxall Lakes Nature Reserve is a lovely, peaceful place to walk and relax. There is a lot of wildlife here, especially birds and waterfowl. The carpark here is only small, but spaces are usually available. Sand and gravel quarrying created the lakes here. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.
200 yards on a stone track with a few access points to see lake or after that is over grown with weeds any right of way through fields "no dogs" signs waste of time
Free parking, nice quiet lakeside walk.
