Stackpole Court was a palatial Georgian mansion, the home of the Campbell family of Cawdor. The house stood at the centre of a vast 18th-century designed landscape centred on Bosherston Lakes. An exhibition in the old dairy building tells the story of the Court and its destruction. Near the house site is a restored walled garden built around 1770, with heated pits for growing pineapples, melons, and other exotic produce.

A garden geared to wildlife, set in the lovely Aeron valley. A nature trail passes through hay meadows, through a small area of woodland, past ponds, and along a river bank, where birds, butterflies, and dragonflies abound. The abundant wildflowers create a lovely display in Spring and early Summer.
