What it costs to play Wentworth

Wentworth is one of England's most famous addresses in golf, the home of the BMW PGA Championship and the headquarters of the European Tour for decades. It is also a private members club, so the honest starting point is access rather than price: you generally play as the guest of a member or on an organized corporate or society day, not on a walk up public tee time.

When you do get on, indicative 2026 guest fees on the flagship West Course run from around 195 GBP in winter to about 360 GBP in summer, usually with a caddie included, while the East and Edinburgh courses cost less. Below is the fee picture, how access really works, and what to know before you play. Always confirm current rates and arrangements directly before booking.

How to get on

The reliable routes onto Wentworth are a member host, a place on a corporate or charity day, or a hospitality package around the BMW PGA Championship in the early autumn. There is no general public tee sheet, and the West Course in particular is tightly held, so plan well ahead and lean on whatever connection or organized event you can.

Guests are expected to carry an official handicap, with a commonly quoted ceiling of about 24 for men and 32 for women, to dress to the club's smart code and to observe the etiquette of a private members environment. The setting in the Surrey and Berkshire heathland belt also puts you within reach of Sunningdale, Swinley Forest and the other heathland greats for a wider trip.

If Wentworth is on your list, the cleanest path for most visitors is to build it into an organized England golf trip with the access arranged for you. See the full Wentworth West course profile, our luxury golf tours of England and the best golf courses in England for ideas.
