Whether it's a Steiff or a Charlie bear, the United Kingdom or Australia; delivery is free when you purchase from Corfe Bears! See terms
Corfe Bears teddy bear shop is situated in the historic village
of Corfe Castle, which has had a bear shop for around twenty
years.
The bears den is very quaint and once inside you are surrounded
by a fantastic and varied collection of over 1000 teddy bears
and animals. It is a breathtaking sight, usually followed by
comments like "WOW!! - what an amazing collection of teddies!
We are a family business, run by myself, Hayley and my husband
Stacey. We are sometimes helped by our two young children, Jordan
and Jade, who are our apprentice Bear Minders!
Your are encouraged to take the bears and animals from the
shelves and give them a cuddle, to help you to see if you fall
in love with one and want to take it home.
We pride ourselves on giving you an excellent old-fashioned
service, taking the time to talk to you, learning what bears
you like, which ones you have and generally getting to know
you - our customers become our friends and we look forward to
your next visit.
We have Charlie Bears and Steiff Bear collectors who come and see
us from all over the country throughout Dorset, Hampshire, Wiltshire,
Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, Surrey and London as well as Poole and Bournemouth
and Swanage in Dorset. We look forward to seeing and hearing from you soon.
We have collectable bears, animals and gollies from most major
manufacturers, including Steiff, Charlie Bears and The Isabelle
Collection, Teddy Hermann, Merrythought, Kosen, Hansa, Deans,
Robin Rive, Brigitte Rive, Clemens, Deans, Boyds and Canterbury
Bears, plus artist bears, such as the popular Hardy Bears, by
June Kendall.
We have a good range of bears and animals in our shop in the
£5-£20 price bracket - ideal for a gift or treat.
Our vast animal range is dedicated to bringing you the finest,
lifelike animals from the animal kingdom and our "Baby Safe"
and children's selection means that children can start enjoying
teddies from the moment they are born - it is often these special
teddies that stay with you for a lifetime!!
In our opinion, nothing beats seeing the bear "in the fur" and
having a cuddle. We have collectable bears made from Plush, Mohair
and Alpaca. If you are not able to get into our shop (open 7 days
a week - see opening hours for details), you can purchase online.
We encourage you to call us beforehand to discuss your requirements
and we will happily give you our advice over the phone - we have
cuddled and handled the bears many times and can give information
on their feel, limited edition numbers, colour, etc.
After your first purchase you will get a 5% loyalty discount
on any future purchase, on any item we sell. This means you get
a discount immediately, don't have the hassle of collection stamps/vouchers
and don't have to wait until you have spent a certain amount first.
We often surprise our regular customers by giving them a free
gift as a thank you for buying from us on a regular basis!!

We almost didn’t receive our delivery of teddy bears from Cubbyhole Cubs. When their creator, Andrea, sent them she wrote ‘bears’ on the shipping form…then received an email telling her that the courier does not carry livestock!
Cubbyhole Cubs bears may not be livestock, but they do come alive with their individual personalities. Each teddy bear or animal is hand-made from the finest materials; mohair, cashmere, alpaca, velvet and soft, synthetic plush. They are all fully-jointed and partly filled with steel shot or glass beads so they are weighty boys and girls!
Designed and hand-made, with great care and attention to detail, in Derbyshire, England; Cubbyhole Cubs are one-of-a-kind collectables. Even when Andrea has attempted to replicate an adopted bear it hasn’t proved possible, as everyone likes to be different! The bears come complete with their own birth certificate showing the name of their new adoptive parent. (read more…)
We are very proud to be featuring Bearalicious Bears as the very first teddy bear artist bears on our website.
Samantha Pace starting designing and hand-making teddy bears only a year ago, yet it’s clear to see that she has a true affinity with her creations, which have unique personalities and appeal. Already a keen crafter Sam started with a bear-making kit, quickly realising she could do far better by designing a teddy bear from scratch. And Bearalicious Bears was born!
The teddy bears are all made from high quality mohair, sourced from all over the world including Germany, Canada, Australia and America. They are finished with suede or faux suede for paws, glass eyes made in England and partly filled with steel shot making them sit well and giving a lovely feel when handled. Their shared characteristic is a bold, varnished nose; hand-stitched with cotton.
We are featuring six of these individual, one-of-a-kind bears and, already, two have been adopted! Such unique character and attention to detail is very rare to find at such a reasonable price and it is likely that the remaining four bears will find new homes very soon. We hope to have more Bearalicious Bears teddies available soon. If you are interested in commissioning a teddy bear from Bearalicious Bears please get in contact with us here or by telephone.

Good news teddy bear lovers! Today we received a lovely big delivery of Charlie Bears and some Isabelle Collection teddy bears that we have been patiently waiting for.
I’m very happy to say that these bears are now in stock and ready to be shipped to you first class and free of charge. As usual numbers are VERY limited so please order or get in contact fast if you want to secure a particular bear.
In the Charlie Bears range we have the lovely woolly Debbie, good-enough-to-eat Johnny with his bright blue ribbon, dark-eyed cutie Imogen, Edmund who has magnetic paws to hide his eyes, rich brown and nice ‘n’ chunky Josh, the very lovely, snowy-white Niamh, free-standing panda Joy and the cuddlesome Kit.
From the Isabelle Collection we are pleased to have these pandas back in stock, but don’t expect them to be around for long. As all of the Isabelle Collection teddy bears and animals are limited editions this may be our last stock before retirement. So be quick if you would like Milo - a traditional mohair panda, Binks - a big, tall, standing fellow or Humbug - a panda with a friendly face as sweet as his name!
Big Dave does a great job of watching over our shop so we thought it was time to introduce you more formally!
A very special member of the Charlie Bears family, Big Dave is one of the largest bears, standing almost two and a half feet tall (76cm)!! He’s definitely seen as the big Daddy to the smaller bears. Being made from particularly long plush he is extra soft and gives a substantial cuddle! He can stand totally unaided due to his big, weighted feeet. He wears a suedette collar with three big bells, and has a lovely big, stitched nose and bright black eyes. (read more…)
Did you know that Steiff don’t just make traditional mohair teddy bears for collectors? They really do have something for everyone from animals to cute keyrings.
One of their best ranges is for babies. A teddy bear is a lovely present for a new baby, but you have to be so careful to choose something that is suitable, so the newborn can have their present straight away. It’s reassuring to know that all of the teddy bears and animals in the Steiff Baby range are made in accordance with Oeko-tex standards. Products that are Oeko-Tex certified have been tested and do not contain harmful levels of more than 100 substances known or believed to be hazardous to human health, so the risk is minimised of baby being allergic to their new toy.
In addition you will find that each of the Steiff baby products is either surface or machine washable so easy for Mum and Dad to look after too!
All of the teddies and animals are very affordable, starting at just £13, and they make wonderful presents. With friendly faces and simple, soft and cuddly designs. Their Steiff bear will be a good friend as baby grows and begins to explore around them, and will be treasured into adulthood. They will always feel fondly about ‘My First Steiff’!
In case you haven’t already seen the new additions to the website I wanted to let you know that we finally have all of these special release bears and animals for you to browse.
The Show Specials are only available from teddy bear shops and retailers who attended the Spring Fair at the NEC in Birmingham earlier this year. We were there of course, to see Charlie and Will and to see all of the new creations. All of them are limited editions and we don’t expect them to be around for long. We’re taking pre-orders so please enter the layaway code on your shopping cart for any that you would like reserved for you. You pay a 25% deposit now and then nothing until we’re ready to send your bear.
New in the Charlie Bears range are Mikey and William II. They’re both plumo bears which means they’re made from plush, with mohair muzzles and inner ears. They both have lovely stitched feet too, like Charlie 2009. Of course William is the perfect partner for Charlie as you may have seen when the humans appeared on QVC last weekend!
In the Isabelle Collection there are some lovely new pairs of friends. Brie & Camembert are two mohair mice (remember Nico and Taco?), and Mr Humphries & Pumpkin are mohair teddy bears and the best of friends. There are two new cats called Flash & Snowball, and two dogs - Ripley & Duke. So there’s someone for everyone! (read more…)
We’re very happy to report a delivery today of some Charlie Bears that have been out of stock and some of you have been desperate to get your hands on. Demand is so high for the lovely plush Charlie teddy bears so you can be sure that they won’t be around for long.
So, today you have a chance to add these cuddly friends to your collection… (read more…)
There are even more teddy bears and animals for you to browse on Corfe Bears website now! We have added almost 80 plush animals and tiny, collectable, miniature teddy bears to choose from. As with all of our teddies and animals, orders over £15 are delivered free of charge. We ship first class so you will often receive your little friend the very next day! (read more…)

Our range of bears (and a rabbit) from Dean’s Ragbook Company can now be browsed online for free of charge, first class delivery! You’ll find miniature bears as small as 10 cm tall and a unique pack of larger bears, many of them designed by teddy bear artists.
Dean’s are Britain’s oldest bear manufacturer since they started producing teddy bears in 1915. All of their bears are limited editions of as few as 20 pieces, and all are made in finest mohair or alpaca. Dean’s bears are very popular with teddy bear enthusiasts and their collector’s club has over 4,000 members. The bears are identified in the following ways: the ‘Apple Pips’ range of 4 inch high miniature bears all wear a golden apple pendant; all of the Dean’s bears have a sewn-in label noting their individual limitation number, and all come complete with a certificate of authenticity.
We are proud to introduce Dean’s bears to our online range. All of them can be viewed in our shop in Swanage. Watch this space for some exciting future additions!
