What the club says: A golf course has been on the present site since 1910, originally known as Caversham and South Oxon Golf Club. Shortly before the Second World War, the simpler title of Reading Golf Club was adopted. The original 12 holes were designed by James Braid and a further 6 holes were added in 1911, although there have been various alterations throughout the years.

Nice course providing you hit straight - not super long but well worth playing.
Use irons more than driver for points

One of the best clubs in the district

What a course. I loved it. We played 2 rounds there at the start of May and the condition of the course was unbelievable. The greens needed to be just a touch quicker but that will come with the nice weather when they can cut them back. The greenkeepers should be proud of this course. Can't believe you can play it for ?20. First 4 holes are straight up and down near enough. After that though they start to get really interesting. The Par 3s are enjoyable and nothing over 180yds which is the way par 3s should be. The 18th iff the whites is 470yds and a proper challange to get there in 2. I never managed it. Always left myself with 210/220yds in and it's a tough shot to use a rescue and get it on the green as it protected left and right with bunkers and it's a small green with a massive hedge right behind it. Overall this is a brilliant track., very friendly staff and good food/drink. I wish I and played here earlier, I am moving away from the area in 4 weeks ????
