Colliford Lake is a reservoir on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. Covering more than 900 acres (3.6 km2), it is the second-largest lake in Cornwall. It is situated south of the A30 trunk road near the village of Bolventor. Dozmary Pool outfallis into the lake and the lake’s own outfall forms one of the tributaries of the River Fowey.............
The northernmost point of the lake is approximately three-quarters of a mile (1 km) south of Bolventor and the headbank at the southernmost point is approximately three miles (5 km) south of Bolventor.................
It is near Jamaica Inn, the famous smugglers haunt immortalised by Daphne du Maurier
Colliford Lake is managed by the South West Lakes Trust, an environmental and recreational charity which manages fifty inland water sites in Cornwall, Devon, and Somerset. (Wikipedia).......................

The name Bodmin Moor is relatively recent, an Ordnance Survey invention of 1813. The upland area was formerly known as Fowey Moor after the River Fowey, which rises within it (Wikipedia)..........................
