Collaton Park: A New Chapter in Community Living in the Heart of South Devon

Set against the sweeping beauty of South Devon’s rolling hills, Collaton Park isn’t just another new development, it’s the beginning of a life lived fully.

As the proud estate agents working alongside Coln Signature Homes and Pillar Land Securities, we are thrilled to introduce this award-winning new neighbourhood—a place where quality craftsmanship meets thoughtful planning.

Situated close to the much-loved South Hams villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo, Collaton Park is a natural extension of the character and charm of this idyllic corner of Devon. The development features 125 sustainable homes, built to the highest environmental standards, yet it retains a traditional village spirit where community and nature go hand-in-hand.

Homes here are built with people and the planet in mind. From energy-efficient systems to low-impact materials, each property embodies a commitment to low-carbon, design-led living without sacrificing style or comfort. These are homes made to last; a smart choice for future-focused buyers who care about quality and community in equal measure.

Every element, from the village shop and parkland café to the shared green spaces and orchard path, has been designed to create opportunities for social connection, wellbeing, and daily interaction. Whether you're a young family seeking space to grow, downsizing to enjoy the finer things in life, or simply looking for a fresh start in an outstanding location, Collaton Park offers something for every stage of life.

One of the true gems of Collaton Park lies in its unique approach to community amenities. The development offers allotments and a shared orchard—a rare find in modern developments and a genuine invitation to grow your own food, share stories over the hedge, and connect with nature in a tangible way. For green-fingered growers, there’s something incredibly grounding about harvesting produce grown with your own hands. At Collaton Park, residents can enjoy both the fruits of the community orchard and the opportunity to cultivate their own patch of paradise. Gardening supports not only physical health but mental wellbeing, and offers the simple joy of swapping tomatoes, tips, and a laugh with your neighbours. These allotment spaces are designed for digging, chatting, and connecting—the old-fashioned way.

And when it’s time to take a break or catch up with friends? The on-site café serves as a natural meeting point for residents, families, and visitors alike. Whether it’s a quick weekday coffee break during your remote workday or a relaxed weekend brunch, this warm, welcoming space adds a touch of social charm to daily life at Collaton Park. It’s the kind of place where you’ll soon know the names of the baristas and nod a familiar hello to fellow locals across the terrace.

Collaton Park goes beyond preserving the natural environment, it enhances it. Over 50% of the site is dedicated to outdoor space, featuring swales, wildlife ponds, rewilded meadows, and species-rich grasslands. Footpaths wind through woodlands and pastures and connect to tranquil areas where residents can watch the local wildlife flourish. The development’s ecology-first design has earned accolades for its biodiversity commitment, including the creation of a bespoke wildlife tower that provides a haven for bats, owls, and other native birds. Thoughtful, low-impact lighting ensures that even Devon’s rare bat species—like the Lesser and Greater Horseshoe—can continue to thrive in this carefully preserved environment.

Collaton Park offers a mix of tenures and styles, ensuring broad appeal across generations. Whether you're working from home, starting a family, retiring by the sea, or just seeking a lifestyle upgrade in South Devon, this is a place where you can put down roots and truly belong.

At Marchand Petit, we know that buying a home isn’t just a transaction; it’s about choosing a lifestyle and joining a community.
