A few kind words from some happy children & grown ups.

It’s THE Santa

We’ve had the privilege of DoorStep Santa visit our children on Christmas Eve since 2020. To see the excitement and surprise on their face when they open the door melts my heart. Santa truly puts the magic back into Christmas.
I also booked DoorStep Santa for the school Christmas fair. Being able to share his love and magic with so many children was immense. It was the highlight of the fair and will definitely be a yearly booking!
Would recommend DoorStep Santa to everything 🎅

Most magical Santa ever!

It is the second year we have had Santa home, and I only pray he can get us in next year!
Not only does he look superb, he took the time to chat with each child and answer all their questions.
My kids was gobsmacked and felt so privileged to have Santa at home!
Thank you for taking the time to fit us in and the memories added.

A very special santa visit

I cannot thank door step santa enough. My children’s faces when they opened the door was a picture. My little one was so excited she had a huge smile on her face throughout the whole time santa was at our house, she still talks about it now.
He looks the part but also sounds it. He spent time with children and answered all the questions about the North Pole. Highly recommended!!!!
It was truly magical.
Thank you so much and
Hopefully see you again in December.

Amazing experience

After having my eight year old son start questioning the existence of Santa I knew I needed to do something pretty special… and special it most certainly was.
From start to finish the whole experience was so magical and all the children (and us adults too) loved every minute of it.
I would highly recommend booking Doorstep Santa you will not regret it!

Wonderful visit

We had an amazing visit from door step Santa. He has kept the magic alive. He was better than any other Santa visit we have experienced and we have taken ours to many over the years. It was truly wonderful. Thank you.

The Real Santa!

We’ve had Glyn (Doorstep Santa) at every one of our company Christmas celebrations since our first in 2018, and each time, he’s been the highlight of the event! Glyn effortlessly creates a magical atmosphere and takes the time to make a connection with every child. We’ve had nothing but positive feedback from our families who see him, and I would recommend Glyn to anyone who wants that authentic Christmas magic at their home or event – he’s the real deal!

We have had doorstep Santa for a few years now and he is amazing I wouldn’t have or see any other Santa.
He makes it all special for the kids and even threw in a few magic tricks for our last visit.

Amazing Santa Visit

The most amazing Christmas Day surprise!!! We know Santa from many many years a go so there wasn’t anyone else I would have used but, beyond knowing him, what an amazing Santa experience he offers; his presence, costume, conversation- everything you could wish for in Santa! My little boy is still talking about it… and my dad… 8 weeks later! Thank you Santa for making my children’s dream of meeting Santa come true and also being the most amazing experience for the rest of family too. X

Amazing Santa. The best we’ve seen

I asked Santa to visit our home with a huge list of things that ‘only the real Santa would know’ …. Santa managed to cover everything on that list and my 7 & 5 year old were mesmerised! I left it as a complete surprise for the kids and played along that I had no idea he was coming. Santa definitely kept the magic alive for another year. 🎅

A Magical Evening

We cannot Thank Doorstep Santa Enough. We hosted a Christmas evening for family and friends and everyone was blown away. Santa was brilliant with the children of all ages. He made our evening so special an evening we will not forget. We were so impressed we have already rebooked for next year. Thank you Doorstep Santa for creating a night of Christmas magic for us! If you are looking for the perfect Santa look no further!

The real deal

Wow, wow, wow …. So so magical and personal experience. My boys are only 2 and 3 years old and Santa was so good with them making time to chat about the things they enjoyed. They loved him and admittedly so did my husband and I. Defo same time and place next year Santa. P.S. my nephew was supposed to join but was poorly and Santa even took the time to do a video for him after our visit which made a little boy very happy at Xmas.

The best Santa I’ve ever met!

I booked Door Step Santa after I’d seen a friend hire him last year, and it was the best experience my kids have had! We invited a few friends over and Santa had asked for details about all the children and spoke to them individually. They were amazed at all the stuff Santa knew, jaws were on the floor and if some of them didn’t believe they definitely did after this visit! The nicest Santa and most authentic Santa I’ve ever met, even the parents were mesmerised 😅! Highly recommend 🎄🎅

The Real Santa

I booked a home visit with Doorstep Santa, (Glyn). I wasn’t sure what to expect but the experience was absolutely magical. WhenSanta arrived in his beautiful authentic suit, together with red leather coat and cane, no false beard, hair or eyebrows, we knew it really was the real deal. He took time to speak to each child, look in his journal, give out stickers and a Christmas card. He wasn’t in a rush and stayed for photos. I have been to Lapland and seen many santas in my 60 years, but he was truly wonderful.

A Santa experience not to be missed

This experience was amazing. I haven’t stopped recommending this to my friends and colleagues. My son is normally scared of seeing Santa but Door Step Santa made my son feel comfortable in his own home. The whole experience was personable and at a much slower pace than the normal conveyor belt feeling when visiting Santa at an event, making my Son feel at ease. The costume, the character and preparation taken to know specifics about my son at Christmas were on point and made the whole thing magical! This was a lovely family occasion and I’ll definitely be doing it again next year with my nieces too. I cannot recommend this enough.

Unbelievable experience

Having Santa Glyn coming over is unlike any other Santa experience we’ve ever had. From the amazing outfit, fantastic interpretation and great interaction with the children, to the actual nice man Glyn Norris is, and the level of personalisation in his visits, I can’t recommend him highly enough. He talks to the children patiently, tells them a lot of facts about Santa and it’s ready to answer pretty much any question about Santa they may have. A fantastic new Christmas tradition for us, I hope we can have him over many many years!

Bringing Magic at Christmas

What an amazing service. My friends and I have booked Door Step Santa for 2 years in a row now and every year there is new magic. So much time and care for the children and what makes the magic more so is when Santa knows everything about the child. The look on my daughters face is one for the memory bank. Absolutely fantastic. Great service. Thank you for making my daughters Christmas.

What an experience!

It was genuinely magical having doorstep Santa come and visit. He took so much time to listen to my four year old who had A LOT to say (plus about 55 Lego models to show him, sorry Santa!) and he really made him feel special. His visit really kick started the run up to Christmas and we cannot wait to book him again for next year!

Christmas magic

I booked doorstep Santa for my 3 children the weekend before Christmas as I wanted them
To feel the Christmas magic after the year of restrictions and events being cancelled.
Safe to say he did not disappoint and the children were overwhelmed with excitement and mesmerised when they heard a knock at the door and Santa arrived. Christmas cards at hand and a chat with the children, discussing Christmas presents and Santas reindeer. It was a magical moment and we will definitely book again.

A magical experience

This is the 2nd year that Doorstep Santa has visited us. It is such a magical experience for the kids and they find it so exciting. Santa gives so much attention to each individual child and really engages with them so that they feel like Santa is really listening to them. We will continue to book visits from Doorstep Santa for many more years!

Amazing Santa

We normally visit a grotto each year with our boys but due to COVID it was very restricted as to where we could go. I saw the doorstep Santa advertised and thought I would enquire and managed to get a slot for Xmas Eve!
Santa kept in touch so that he was well informed for his visit for all of my four boys. On the day of his visit my boys were overwhelmed with excitement, Santa was great! He was very current, funny and most of all magic!
It was far better than visiting any grotto and was a real treat and joy to have a personalised visit from the big man himself!
Thanks Santa and looking forward to our next visit from you in 2022!

The Real Santa!

Doorstep Santa visited all the children on our street. He knocked on the door and asked if we mind if he stops at our front door for a little while as he is very tired after all the travelling. My kids are normally VERY loud but they were star-struck and blown away with this gentle giant who made a personal appearance at our front door. He was very engaging and told us all sorts of secrets about the Elves… just amazing!! We loved him and would highly recommend him to anyone who is serious about meeting the real Santa.
