About Simon & Grania
A Family business
Our farm supports a thriving ecosystem of wild animals, insects and wild plant-life. The cattle are a natural element of this very special ecosystem we call home - not far from the stunning Dartmoor National Park.
We are proud to farm Red Ruby Devons who nurture over 500 acres of our grass-land, in turn ensuring the health of the carbon-locking capability of this natural Devon scape through their gardening, increasing oxygen through photosynthesis. We rotate our beautiful cattle from field to field regularly to encourage new grass growth and periodically thin and plant trees to maintain the optimum heath of our forested land. Last year alone we planted over 10,000 trees - something Grania was proud to encourage awareness of during her term as High Sheriff of Devon.
We are blessed to eat our own delicious beef at Colleton Estate. Our farm and home is saturated with history, with a dwelling even recorded here in the Doomsday book in 1086! More recently, (in the late 1700s!) Colleton was home to Parson Jack Russel - famous as the huntsman who was responsible for breeding the Jack Russel Terrier! We don’t have any terriers, but we do adore our three generations of Golden Retrievers who love life on the farm too!
