The docs for the MapBox Geocoding v5 API 1 state that Points of Interest data has been removed.

Geocoding v5 POI Deprecation

Points of Interest (POI) data has been removed from the Geocoding v5 API. If your application relies on searching for POIs like restaurants, gas stations, and landmarks, we recommend transitioning to the Search Box API. If your use case is primarily address and place search, you can continue using Geocoding v5 without interruption. To enjoy new features like unit-level geocoding, structured input, Smart Address Match, and improved batch geocoding, consider upgrading to the new Geocoding v6, which has the same per request price as v5.

Thus searching for something like "Trent Park Golf Course" gives no results, but searching for the road that it is on ("Bramley Road") does work.
