Roadford lake has always been a nice place to go for a walk and drink, but after getting two parking tickets (and expecting a third due to their delays in sending) despite the fact we have an annual pass is a disgrace and I will think twice before returning! I only bought the annual pass because I believe in the work the Lakes Trust do, but their new automatic system is terrible and very hard to appeal against since there is no contact to actually speak to a person and the online appeal system is deliberately difficult. The Trust employs this system, ultimately it is their responsibility!

We deliberately chose to visit Roadford Lake as the website promised an accessible path for wheelchairs and we thought it would be a lovely day out for my mother who has MS. The car park and approach to the cafe were smooth and easy to push the wheelchair on, but after about 100 yards the ‘accessible’ tarmac path changes to a very stoney path and after about another 100 yards we had to give up and turn back. It was so bumpy and uncomfortable for Mum, not really suitable for a standard wheelchair at all.
Thankfully the day wasn’t a right off. We had lunch in the cafe, which was delicious though prices were fairly high.
It’s such a shame, it can be so hard to get an elderly disabled person really out into nature and we had hoped this would be an excellent opportunity to do that - but it wasn’t.

We visit here regularly, for walks around the lovely gravel tracks with the dogs, for some paddle boarding, or even for a bite to eat.
They have delicious food and tasty treats and drinks and a cute little gift shop!

Walking in the woods, we were confronted by two out of control alsatian types dogs, who were off the lead and non-responsive to their handler, who was having difficulty with a snarling barking alsatian type, that was on a lead. He was unable to call them back to him and twice they lunged at us. We stood still until he eventually managed to bring them to him. All he said was, sorry they are puppies. Do not walk your children in the woods it is not safe. The signs say, dogs on a lead.

We had a wonderful afternoon tea at Roadford lake today, A fantastic lakeside venue. The tables were beautifully laid out and Jake and the team looked after us well. There was plenty to eat from sandwiches to quiche and sausage rolls and cakes and scones. The tea pots were constantly refilled too. Highly recommend it.

Lovely venue and popular cafe, which is in a great position overlooking the lake. Food mostly good. Staff mostly friendly. Very dog friendly.
A variety of good paths. Car parking charges a little steep, as I had to pay for all day as we wanted a little walk and a lunch, so I doubted that the cheaper two hour option would be sufficient. Shame there’s not a 4 hour option rather than just 2 or 24.

Booked for 5 people, 3 went kayaking and 2 went paddleboarding for the first time. Very well instructed and showed us what to do. You got to use their wetsuits or you bring your own which I did. Paddleboarding was really great fun but started to get a bit windy on the lake which made it harder to paddle. Felt really good afterwards and it felt like I've done a work out. All had a really great time and will be going again next time we are down that way.

Excellent set up for lake activities - 10/10! We took out kyacks and SUPS. Super easy to book online, friendly and knowledgeable team members everywhere from reception to lakeside. Wetsuits are provided, the changing rooms are clean and spacious, lots of space to park.

Is there anywhere on the lake we are ok to swim? I've seen you host the wild swim event but can we pop along for a dip or do you only allow it as part of the event?

Do dogs have to be kept on leads and out of the water as at some lakes?

Hello, Thank you for your question. Yes we do ask that dogs are kept on the lead. We do however have an enclosed run for dogs on the 2nd tier of our car park which you are welcome to let them off in. Dogs are also not permitted in the lake as this is a reservoir. We look forward to seeing you and your dogs at Lakeside soon.

Have found the car park at the A30 end of the lake, where the visitor centre and café is, but how do I get to the other car park please? I want to find the geocache, and my elderly dog can't walk far enough from the visitor centre/dam car park to get to it!

Hello, I am sorry for the delay in replying to you. For future enquiries please call 01566 784859
If you are thinking of Gaddacome Car Park you take the Bratton Clovelly turning, then first left, follow the road until you come to the end and the car park is on the right. If this is not the right one please call and we will do our best to direct to the correct car park. Enjoy your walk!
