The easiest and most direct route is via the M4 motorway. Please note that there are currently diversions in place.

- When you reach the roundabout at the top of the slip road follow the yellow diversion signs for the B3270. This takes you onto the northbound A33 (signposted Reading), taking the right-hand lane.
- Follow the road which loops back round. Do not take the left turn signposted Whitley.
- As the traffic merges from the left, take the left-hand lane and bear left onto the B3270.
- Follow this road and at the first roundabout turn left on to the A327 (Shinfield Road).
- Follow this road and go straight across two mini roundabouts.
For the main entrance and reception
- Continue straight across at the traffic light junction.
