Situated in part of the Bodmin Moor Site of Special Scientific Interest, birdwatchers will not be disappointed at this moorland lake. The banks (except by the Nature Reserve) are open for walking and picnicking, but there is no formal picnic area. There is a bird hide in the wooded area.

No other activities take place on the water, in recognition of the high conservation value of this location.

Free wilderness brown trout fishing for wild fish from the bank is available to holders of a valid Environment Agency Rod Licence (non-migratory). Permitted angling methods at this reservoir include spinning, fly or bait. ‘Catch and release' option available (barbless hooks to be used), otherwise up to 4 fish over 7" may be taken in a day. Free car parking.

Season: 15 March - 12 October
