The areas around the reservoir have tall fen, reed beds and willow carr, declining habitats in Britain. There are over 300 species of beetle, of which six are rare nationally.[1] There is access to the perimeter path around the reservoir from World's End Lane and Halton Lane.[2] The reservoir is home to Aylesbury Sailing Club, which can be accessed on the same path.[6] {{commonscat}}References1. ^1 {{cite web|url= http://www.sssi.naturalengland.org.uk/citation/citation_photo/1002408.pdf|title=Weston Turville Reservoir citation|series= Sites of Special Scientific Interest|publisher=Natural England|accessdate= 13 October 2015}} {{coord|51.7789| -0.7512|dim:2000_region:GB|display=title}}{{SSSIs Buckinghamshire}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://magic.defra.gov.uk/MagicMap.aspx?startTopic=Designations&activelayer=sssiIndex&query=HYPERLINK%3D%271002408%27 |title=Map of Weston Turville Reservoir|series= Sites of Special Scientific Interest|publisher=Natural England|accessdate= 13 October 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/places-to-visit/destination/128/weston-turville-reservoir|title=Weston Turville Reservoir |publisher=Canal & River Trust |accessdate= 13 October 2015}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url= http://www.bbowt.org.uk/reserves/western-turville-reservoir |title=Weston Turville Reservoir |publisher=Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust|accessdate= 13 October 2015}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.chilternsaonb.org/ccbmaps/667/137/weston-turville-reservoir.html|title=Weston Turville Reservoir|publisher=Chilterns Conservation Board |accessdate= 13 October 2015}} 6. ^{{cite web |title=Aylesbury Sailing Club |url=http://www.rya.org.uk/wheresmynearest/Pages/Organisation.aspx?num=724160&OrgType=1 |website=Royal Yachting Association |accessdate=22 June 2018 |language=en}} 3 : Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust|Sites of Special Scientific Interest in Buckinghamshire|Reservoirs in Buckinghamshire |
