About Colaton Raleigh

Colaton Raleigh rests in a fold of the Devonshire countryside, where the ancient earth still hums with a quiet life. It lies 4.9 km west of Sidmouth (from Sidmouth: bearing 265°T, OS grid SY 077 873), and is situated north-north-west of Otterton village. The air here, especially on a sun-drenched afternoon, carries the faint, sweet scent of ripening apples from the surrounding orchards, a fragrance that has long mingled with the earthy perfume of cultivated fields. At its heart, Colaton Raleigh offers a village green, a verdant expanse where the sunlight pools and lingers, inviting a moment of quiet contemplation. The modest parish church, St. John the Baptist, stands as a sentinel of time, its weathered stone a testament to centuries of devotion, its spire a slender finger pointing towards an ever-changing sky. The land around Colaton Raleigh is a gentle but persistent reminder of its agricultural heritage, its contours shaped by the patient hand of generations who have worked its soil.
