Wokefield intro copy

A Mansion House hotel in Berkshire

There has been an estate at Wokefield since the first house was built in the 1560s for the wealthy Plowden family.  Set in 250 acres of Berkshire parkland, its history is etched in the different architectural features that greet you throughout.

Now De Vere Wokefield Estate, the 376 bedroom hotel has been completely transformed following a £20 million restoration throughout: whether you choose to stay at Wokefield Place, Wellington Lodge or the estate’s historic Mansion House. Either way, you’ll find attentive service recognised by Tripadvisor and its Travellers’ Choice certificate for consistently great reviews for the 2nd year running.

A high-tech dedicated conference building, Wokefield Place has been refurbished and kitted out with all the AV and technology you need.

Once again the heart of the estate, the historic Mansion House has had a complete makeover and now offers 87 guestrooms, including 12 luxury suites, along with the restoration of a number of event spaces including the pillared Terrace Suite.

Outside, you’ll find an 18-hole PGA-standard golf course and outdoor activity course in the grounds. There’s also a fully equipped gym and indoor swimming pool available daily for guests to use.

Sitting just south-west of London, the hotel is located near Reading and is just 10 minutes from J11 of the M4 and 40 minutes from Heathrow Airport.  Travel into London Paddington is just 50 minutes on the new Elizabeth Line, with up to six trains an hour departing from Reading station.

Free, superfast Wi-Fi with a maximum bandwidth of 1GB is available throughout the hotel and up to 100m within the grounds.

My recent stay at De Vere Wokefield left me thoroughly impressed and rejuvenated. The quality of my experience was exceptional in every aspect. The room was tastefully designed and supremely comfortable, creating a cozy haven to unwind and recharge. I found the attention to detail remarkable, and it added an extra layer of luxury to my stay.


The culinary offerings were a true highlight. The meals were both delicious and beautifully presented, showcasing the culinary expertise of the team. Each dish felt like a masterpiece, and I looked forward to every meal. Moreover, the tranquil location provided the perfect setting for a brief escape from the daily grind. It struck the ideal balance between relaxation and a change of scenery, allowing me to enjoy a well-deserved break without feeling disconnected for too long.

In sum, my experience at De Vere Wokefield was exceptional. The combination of a fantastic room, delectable dining, and a serene location made it a getaway to remember. I would undoubtedly rate my stay with five stars and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to return for another memorable visit.

Great place! Great for doggies as well as their well behaved owners! Afternoon tea was amazing and if you have dietary requirements, they are more than happy to help with that too.


The place is spotless and the beds are to die for!

Ivan made our stay first class with his cheeky humour. Aaron in the restaurant was so accommodating and kind.


Mixing work with pleasure is never easy but the team here get it and are always at hand to help make life as easy as they can.


Thank you all for a fabulous stay! We will definitely be back!

Exceptional venue for a conference! Spent the week at Wokefield and enjoyed every minute.
