Caledonian Bears

The Caledonian Bears are a unique collection of hand-made Scottish tweed teddy bears.

The bears and their clothing are designed and created in our workshop at Neptune's Staircase on the tow-path of the Caledonian Canal under the shadow of Ben Nevis, Britain's highest mountain.

The bear's design are inspired by images from past rural Scottish life and of course include the tweeds and clan tartans that have been used in the kingdom for centuries. The Caledonian Bears are handmade on site in our workshop at Neptunes staircase which commands excellent views of Loch Linnhe and Ben Nevis. Come and visit us to see our collection and enjoy a great walk along the towpath, we also sell gifts, tea and coffee.
