old bear - Teddy Bear Museum

A unique family museum with its evocative and enchanting displays of teddy bears from throughout the last century. The earliest teddy bears right up to today's TV favourites, including Rupert Bear, Winnie the Pooh and Paddington, are all there to be seen and enjoyed. The museum's oldest bear is Michael, made in 1906, based on the original teddy bear design and pattern. The museum is set in the 'house' of Edward Bear - a human sized teddy bear - who with his family are avid bear collectors! The whole visit is great nostalgic fun!
