Collaton Farm is situated in a quiet valley just outside the villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo and was formerly a dairy farm specialising in Jersey cattle and clotted cream. Part of the farm is still used for the production of hay and other areas have been planted out with deciduous trees. Wildlife is plentiful and includes a barn owl which may be seen most evenings hunting for food whilst buzzards, woodpeckers, swallows, rabbits, pheasants and many other species inhabit the farm.

There is a small area of ancient deciduous woodland with a stream, glorious in Spring when the bluebells are out, shady and cool for summer picnics. This is the place for leisurely strolls whilst listening to and observing the wildlife. The fields provided further space for walking and taking in distant views of Dartmoor to the North East and to Noss Mayo church to the South West. Collaton's more recent history is evident from the fields as they adjoin former MOD land where wartime barrage balloons were sited as defence against the air raids on Plymouth and where rumour has it cold war underground bunkers still exist.
