Scolton Manor is a Victorian country house and country park located in Pembrokeshire, West Wales northeast of Haverfordwest and on the borders of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Built as a home, it is now a museum and is a Grade II* listed building. The stable court, some 120 m (130 yd) to the north, is also a Grade II listed building and both are owned by Pembrokeshire County Council. The house, grounds and a number of exhibits are open to the public.
Designed by local architects William and James Owen, Scolton Manor was built in 1840 and occupied from 1842 by the Higgon family. The house replaced a former building owned by the same family which had burned down in the mid-eighteenth century. Prominent amongst Pembrokeshire society, three Higgon family members held the position of High Sheriff of Pembrokeshire, including the last resident, Lt Col John Henry Victor Higgon (1902-1987). It is a country house built in a neo-classical style, with unpainted stucco, with a slated, hipped roofs and flat overhanging eaves.

Visited in the rain so couldn't go round the park. £2.50 to park which is not too bad as you could spend a lot of time here especially with children. The manor has separate entry fee and was worth it as it was a well presented glimpse into Victorian life. Staff very friendly and informative. Small gift shop and cafe. Cafe was empty but range of cakes and drinks looked good. Also visitor centre and toilets.

Very disappointing. I went here previously and there was a fantastic museum situated within the walled garden, but that's been demolished now.

Really nice place! Only had to pay £2.50 to park and the rest of it is all free apart from the manor. We did feel the manor was a bit expensive, but I guess that money goes towards the maintenance for it. All in all though,a great day out!

Charming atmosphere and lovely fields and woods with plenty of interesting facts. Play areas for Children impressed my sister but not me.

Brilliant place to go if you have children, and there's nice cafe there too. I recommend it.
