Time for Arthur Bear

One frosty morning, deep in the Yorkshire Dales, a little bear named Arthur woke with a feeling in his heart. Something was calling him - something warm, twinkly, and full of wonder!

He followed the glow of fairy lights over hills and hedgerows, through frosted fields and winding lanes, until he reached a place that sparkled with magic.

There were trees dressed in gold, snowy miniature villages coming to life, and shelves stacked high with festive treasures. Everywhere he looked, there was christmas magic in the air.

Arthur realised he’d found it - Christmas Time at Yorkshire Garden Centres.

And so, Arthur Bear made his home there. From that moment, he could be found hiding in Christmas Looks, exploring the Winter Village, sneaking a taste of the festive menus, and spreading joy, wonder, and a little bear-sized mischief wherever he went!

Because Arthur reminds us all what the season is really about: when you believe in Christmas Time… magic finds you!

No ordinary passenger… Arthur Bear’s on official Yorkshire Garden Centres duty - in search of Christmas magic!
