Roadford Lake sits within the stunning surroundings of the Wolf Valley, near the Cornwall border. One of the biggest and busiest inland waters in the South West, the lake is surrounded by a variety of natural habitats, including Culm Grasslands, woodlands, old pastures and orchards.
An abundance of flora and fauna, and a lovely scattering of nature trails and footpaths to different areas of the lake, offer visitors the opportunity to appreciate the peaceful beauty of water, woodland and forestry on a walk or bicycle.

We are awaiting guidance from national governing bodies with regards to particular activities, including watersports and overnight fishing - please bear with us whilst we await these details. In the meantime, the lakes will continue to stay open for our local communities to exercise.
