Hope your not thinking about doing over nighters.. 
Travelling that kind of distance your going to be wanting to do a few days at least. You can almost treat it as a mini break. I travel about an hour at most for most of my fishing. That's enough for me. Doing days and over nighters are mangerable. Good luck if you do decide to go ahead with it.

The iconic venues you mention aren't what they were. Personally I drive from the south coast up to Scotland to fish occasionally but I'm in a motorhome and retired so have all the time to do as I please.

I know that, and I know it will be busy , there isn't many places left that hasn't succumb to the hordes, but wraysbury just has a pull to it.
Also fancy the island lake as well ,

For all of my regular fishing I've had a 35 minute from home rule.
My fishing has been very different from yours though, usually one night, more recently it has been stretched out to 24 hours. I have always tried to get to the lake as often as possible, to bait up and watch as often as possible.
When I was offered a Savay season ticket that all went out of the window. Travelling further and for longer than ever before and having to sleep in my truck overnight. It was absolutely knackering!
But this was Savay, a dream come true. Being older and with more time now I'd join again in a heartbeat.
My advice, do it, join them and enjoy experience. If you find you don't enjoy it, at least you'll you'll have tried, with no regrets.

I like your way of thinking 👍
That was my thought process, if I love it then bonus , if not at least I tried it and experienced it.
There's a 2 year waiting list apparently
