About Siblyback Lake Campsite

Perched on the edge of Bodmin Moor's highest reaches, Siblyback Lake Country Park offers a serene lakeside escape where three-mile accessible trails loop the water and tors brood on the horizon. The on-site café fuels walkers and cyclists, while anglers—whether from the bank, a boat, or a float tube—test their luck with regularly stocked rainbow trout. Facilities are straightforward: hardstanding for motorhomes, electric grass pitches for tents, and a dog park for four-legged guests.

Beyond the lake, myth seeps through the landscape. Dozmary Pool, rumoured resting place of Excalibur, and the Hurlers stone circles lie within easy reach, their legends as atmospheric as the moorland itself. The site can feel pleasantly remote, though some visitors note the pitches and facilities show their age in places—charm and practicality in fairly equal measure.

We didn’t stay at Siblyback but we did use the lake with our own kayaks. Hired a life jacket as we were 1 short. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The Lake is beautiful with plenty of spots you can just paddle up to and get out for a rest and some shade. We were able to drive our car down to the grassed area in front of the lake and had plenty of room for our deck chairs and kayaks. There is a cafe onsite which has an amazing reputation we had already brought our cool box loaded with chilled drinks and lunch so we were all set up. We will definitely go back and highly recommend a visit.

TOTAL SCAM!!!! DO NOT BOTHER GOING HERE. Parked at cafe which is only place you can and got a ticket because you pay for every second from driving under the barrier in, to driving under it again out. Cost me £60 for 13minutes because i bought a 2hr ticket and rest of time was finding a space, paying/unloading etc and reloading/sorting sat nav... go somewhere where you get better value for money, this is just a rip off

Excellent day out for a walk around the lake. At 3.2miles (5km) it's a good distance to get out there and enjoy the beautiful country side, see the farm animals around and blow away those cobwebs. The path around the lake is well paved so excellent for those with a pushchair, wheelchair, bike or other wheels. The visitor centre has a great range of lunch foods, with helpful and friendly staff. Well recommended!
