About us
The breathtaking Lopwell Dam on the upper tidal mark of the River Tavy is an excellent site for bird watching and walking.
Located just 3 miles north of Plymouth and 7 miles from Tavistock, this wildlife haven is well worth a visit.
Lopwell Dam is a designated Local Nature Reserve (LNR) covering an area of approximately 5 hectares. The area consists of several different habitats including mudflats, freshwater marsh, wildflower meadow, scrub-grassland, saltmarsh and semi-natural woodland. The area is also designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
The Bere Peninsula cycle route runs nearby, and the Tamar Discovery Trail begins at Lopwell www.tamarvalley.org.uk
