Browse in our gift shop and find toys, merchandise and collectibles for the young and young at heart!
Established in 1978, Pooh Corner has a long history itself and a real connection to Milne family. Back in the 1920s, young Christopher Robin Milne would walk from his country house to Hartfield High Street with his nanny and donkey, Jessica. His first stop would be to buy some sweets from the little shop on the edge of the village. This little shop is now known across the world as Pooh Corner... When Pooh Corner was first established Christopher Robin himself would occassionally drop in...
Make the most of your trip to Pooh Corner, and go on an adventure to the nearby Ashdown Forest (the real 100 Akre Wood) and play a game of Poohsticks on the real Poohsticks Bridge, where the game for first invented. You can also drop by Pooh, Piglet and Owl's Houses!
