Really good course. Tees need some work as they had been gouged in places. Greens good speed and true. Long course and a true test. Back 9 tougher than the front with more hazards, especially water.Reviewer Rating

Slow play
The course is very good and is used for corporate events and societies. If you play when these events are on expect a long day. Last week we walked off at the thirteenth hole after 4.5 hours, and Monday it took us 5 hours (2 ball). Only saw the Marshall once on Monday, not at all last week.Reviewer Rating

Played in a 2 day Society event. Disappointingly, there was no food available to purchase when we arrived mid-morning. On Day 1 the course was open, but was so wet and muddy it should have been closed. We were given no prior warning about the conditions.
The evening meal turned out to be a 3 course buffet which provided limited choice and was not to the standard one would expect from a golf hotel complex. We were a group of 15 and given only 2 tables of 7. The bedroom was good. Overnight the course had dried out a little, but was still muddy. Overall very disappointing.

Tricky course
Good course, some narrow fairways with long grass on sides making it a bit tricky, good true greens could do with a bit of maintenance in placesReviewer Rating

Wasted potential
Played at Wokefield park earlier this week. I can only describe it as perhaps the most disappointing course I’ve played in a long time. Not the worst by any means, but the most disappointing.Why? Because this place could genuinely be one of the best courses and golf facilities in Berkshire.
It has an extensive pitching area, a large putting green, a driving range to practice in, but it is all unkept and undermaintained. The bunkers in the pitching area are full of stones and weeds. The driving range mats are worn and tattered, and the range balls are (pardon the pun) hit and miss (some don’t even have dimples!).
The course itself? Could be incredible, but again the issue seems to be maintenance and a bit of TLC.
The course is interesting. Plenty of lengthy holes, some amazing fairway bunkers and course architecture. Great undulation on the fairways, great water features, plenty of risk-reward holes and large greens with great run-off areas to punish errant approach shots.
However, the tee boxes are an uneven mess, both in terms of being flat and having grass cut at the same length. The fairways are overgrown and unkept, and the greens are a sandy, bobbly mess. Nothing roles straight and true. It’s basically hit and hope on the greens.
You could argue for £22 that I’ve got what I paid for, but I’m leaving this review to implore management to improve this place. It could genuinely be incredible with proper maintenance, and be a place that could charge £45-50 for visitors.
Pace of play was also poor, which I imagine is a reason for lowish prices and poor maintenance (ie. Cramming as many paying visitors in large groups back to back to maximise profits as far as possible).

The course is fairly good condition but the fairways and second cut need cutting and maintained too a shorter length.

Needs some tlc
I have been looking forward to playing this course as have wanted to play it for years. I have to say I and my group have left very disappointed. Tee boxes were a mess on almost every hole, greens were ok and better than some courses I have played. Fairways almost non existent. Course looks like they have given up with it. Much like the food in the hotelReviewer Rating

Worth a visit
Lots of bunkers - the major course defence. A couple of cracking Par 5?s on the opening 9. Be aware this isn't a golf hotel more a hotel with a golf course attached. Good facilities indoors with 2 restaurants, a pool and gym facilities.Reviewer Rating
