Roadford Lake

Roadford Lake campsite is an AA 3-Star graded site set within the Wolf Valley in Devon, close to the Cornwall border, overlooking the 740-acre lake — the largest body of freshwater in South West England.

Managed by South West Lakes Trust, the site offers more than 40 grass and hardstanding pitches, all within a short walk of the water, with electric hook-up options available for tents, caravans, and motorhomes.

Facilities include a dedicated shower block, undercover barbecue area, washing-up area, laundry, baby-changing room, and recycling facilities. The lake itself is the main draw, with windsurfing, sailing, rowing, kayaking, and fly fishing all on offer.

Qualified instructors are available for lessons and equipment hire. A woodland footpath links the campsite to a café, children's play area, visitor centre, cycle trails, and walking routes.

The surrounding landscape includes Culm Grasslands, woodlands, and old pastures, making it well suited to wildlife spotting and nature exploration. The site is open from February to October.
