De Vere Wokefield Estate

Located just outside Reading in Berkshire, De Vere Wokefield Estate is one of the largest conference and events venues in the South East. Set within 250 acres of parkland, the estate combines a historic mansion house with a modern conference centre, making it particularly well suited to large-scale corporate events, residential conferences and multi-day programmes.

The venue is built around scale and flexibility, offering 39 event spaces across the estate. At its core is the Wokefield Suite, a purpose-built conference space capable of hosting up to 500 delegates, supported by extensive breakout rooms and outdoor areas that allow events to run across multiple formats simultaneously.

With 376 bedrooms on-site, the venue is designed for residential events, enabling accommodation, meetings and catering to be delivered seamlessly within one location. The estate also benefits from an 18-hole championship golf course, adding further scope for incentives and corporate hospitality.
