Pidford Manor is a manor house in Rookley, on the Isle of Wight, England. It is a five-bay Georgian style home on 11 acres (4.5 ha), accessed from the A3020 roadway.

Built in the mid to late 18th century, the front is of red bick. A doorcase features an open pediment over an arched doorway, while the interior has a Chinese Chippendale well staircase. The stable (c. 1795) at Pidford Manor became a Grade II listed building in 1993.
