Sightseeing

The woodland shores of this magnificent lake are hugely popular amongst people who love to take part in the wide range of activities that are possible here - from walking or running the perimeter, dog walking, to simply relaxing and enjoying the view. This area is steeped in a rich history that spans centuries - from ancient monuments, to cascading waterfalls and stunning vistas. Virginia Water is very popular all year round, with its glittering waters and abundance of wildlife. The ornamental Cascade waterfall is always a favourite feature - while children love the towering 100 foot Totem Pole, being fascinated by the ten mystical totem characters.

Whether the rhododendrons are in bloom along the sweeping driveway or the Virginia creeper is dressing the castellated Clubhouse in shades of crimson and red, a timeless experience awaits your arrival at Wentworth, where you can't help but feel at home. In 1805, ‘Wentworths' was a private residence for the extended family of the Duke of Wellington, but it was the visionary George Tarrant, who established the house and grounds as the home of Wentworth Club in 1922. Over 90 years later, the most prestigious professional golf tournament in Europe now resides here, but Wentworth has also remained as an exclusive home to another family - our Members.

The Air Forces Memorial at Runnymede commemorates by name over 20,000 airmen who were lost in the Second World War during operations from bases in the United Kingdom and North and Western Europe, and who have no known graves. They served in Bomber, Fighter, Coastal, Transport, Flying Training and Maintenance Commands, and came from all parts of the Commonwealth. Some were from countries in continental Europe which had been overrun but whose airmen continued to fight in the ranks of the Royal Air Force. This Memorial overlooks the River Thames on Cooper's Hill at Englefield Green between Windsor and Egham on the A308, 4 miles from Windsor.
