Campsite Description

Campsite overview

Siblyback is a unique lakeside campsite which is located on the edge of the magical Bodmin Moor, near Liskeard.
New Cable Wakeboarding System - The first clockwise system in the UK and the first system in Devon and Cornwall
Siblyback offers activities on and off the water for all the family. Whether you fancy a lakeside adventure or a peaceful break away, Siblyback has everything you need. It is a place where you can walk, cycle, fish, sail, bird watch or just simply relax with a delicious Cornish cream tea at our lakeside Café.
There are two play areas at the Lake, one for toddlers and the other for older children. The country park comes with plenty of open space for fun, games and picnics with all the family.
Visitors can now enjoy walking and cycling on the new cyclepath around the lake whilst taking in the stunning views and checking out the wildlife.
Dogs are welcome at the Lake but must be kept on leads.

New Cable Wakeboarding System - The first clockwise system in the UK and the first system in Devon and Cornwall
Ideal for the watersports enthusiast, families and groups alike. Watersports including windsurfing, sailing, rowing and kayaking are on offer at good rates and you can launch your own craft.
New for 2012:
- Cable water-skiing and wakeboarding!
- High ropes course if you fancy swinging like a monkey and a bit of a challenge
If you prefer to stay on land, there are beautiful walks and a three mile off-road cycle trail around the lake.
The café serves light meals and cakes.
There is an additional camping field available for scout groups.

Anglers will be in their element at this nationally renowned stocked rainbow trout Lake, one of our three premier trout fisheries, set in peaceful and tranquil surroundings. Siblyback Lake is a Trout Master fishery.
Stocked regularly with rainbow trout averaging up to 6lb, it recorded excellent results in 2009, with a rod average of 3 fish per angler. Siblyback offers facilities for both boat and bank angling.
The fishery record stands at a rainbow trout of 10lb 8oz.

Please note that fly fishing is the only method permited, and that
all anglers over 12 years must posses a valid Environment Agency
rod licence.
