“We received our video for Carney yesterday and it absolutely blew her mind! She loved it so much and it was absolutely perfect! Thank you so much for making Santa so real for her.”

Stephanie Nolan Rinthalukay

This is the real Father Christmas, no really, this IS the real Father Christmas! The real deal. As parents we were in tears! The detail and work that goes into Santa is first class. And incredible value for money, unlike lots of other Santa trips . Get in there quick because he is sure to be booked up every year. Totally transports you back to your own childhood. Absolutely magical. The only thing is you will want to spend more time with him catching up with him over a mulled wine! I would even pay for that too! The best Santa experience this side of the north pole!”

“I cannot recommend SantaVM enough.

Each year he makes it more magical and my little one loves the videos.

They are personal and professional.

Please if you haven’t already, go order yours. It’s so worth it to see their little faces light up.

Thank you again Santa”

“Our video from Santa is wonderful! The amount of things clever Santa knows about Poppy(6) and Freddie (3)! They loved their video last year and will love this one even more I highly recommend!“

Lizz Broadbent

“I have just received my personalised message from SantaVM for my 2 little ones and I can’t wait to show them!

We had one last year and my son watched it over and over again, mesmerised that Santa knew all about him. It was magical!

I’ve now got to wait impatiently until we put our tree up to show my 4 and 1 year old their special message

I had a slight issue with the download but after one email it got sorted immediately with no problem at all. Santa to the rescue, it’s a Christmas miracle!!

Can’t wait to see my children’s faces as they watch their message from the big man. Thank you SantaVM for creating magic and most of all memories “

Emily Reid

“Probably the best Santa video I have ever seen. Attention to details goes far beyond expectations. I am watching over and over and with a huge smile on my face, please continue to do what you do, I am very happy with how it turned out and I will be back next year for sure. Thank you again.“

Steph Mcdonnell

“What a genius idea in today’s tech heavy world, not to mention, what a great idea to surprise the little ones, and put a smile on their face(s). It was a great gift to see my foster brother’s faces and reactions to Santa knowing exactly what they have been doing throughout the year and what they wanted for gifts under the tree this year. Definitely going to order again next year if the service is still available (I don’t think it’s going away, fantastic video I was so thrilled!). “

“Wow wow! Just had a sneaky peak at the video for my two boys – oh it’s wonderful. The personal detail in there makes it so magical and personal, I am absolutely bursting to show them it! With more videos like this and a chance to see you at the Mansion House, we’ll keep the magic alive for many years I’m sure.

Thank you so much Santa VM, can’t recommend highly enough“

“Amazing Christmas Eve video for my girls ,I absolutely love it.

Cannot wait to see their faces on Christmas Eve

After seeing Santa 3 times at an audience with Father Christmas, I knew it would be fantastic…and it doesn’t disappoint.

Thank you for helping keep the magic of Christmas alive for my two girls “

Joanne Tyerman

“We were gutted to hear that ‘The Real FC’ wasn’t going back to Castle Howard!

We were totally delighted though to see that SantaVM was offering personalised Christmas messages! And we weren’t disappointed! Lovely personalised video message that I can’t wait to show my daughter! Great way to continue our family traditions & continue the Christmas magic

Thank you “

Emma Strachan

“He’s the real Santa ! How do I know ? My mum believes at 70 years young !

So I went in the website and booked a video message for my mums 70th. The website was so easy & straightforward to use! Took me minutes to fill in the form. I was unsure when we’d receive the video as it was December …Santa’s busiest time….the video arrived exactly when Santa said he’d record it ! It was PERFECT and quite moving, Santa brought the stories to life & it felt so personal for my mum, she loved waking up to that on her birthday and believes!

I highly highly recommend a personal video message off the big guy ! Thankyou Santa ! X“

Nicky Sweeney-Chisholm

“We LOVE our SantaVM message. Thank you! It’s perfect for our daughter as it’s so personalised. I can’t wait to see her face when she watches it.

We’ve loved visiting you every year, Santa, and can’t wait to meet you again this year. It will be great to show our daughter the message in the run up – it will get us all in to the Christmas spirit! xx“

“I mean every word, you are thoroughly entertaining and watching you is pure joy!

Tonight was very relaxed and felt really special. It didn’t feel rushed at all. Simply a beautiful, festive evening full of fun. A lovely setting, fantastic entertainment, the food was also great! What a great start to the festivities. Thank you!

I have one question though…when the children are too old, can I still come and see you?! ”

Jessica Kyei-Yamoah

“Would just like to say a huge thank you for such a magical and amazing visit at the mansion House today. My children have never known a different Santa and was so pleased we could get to see you again. It was just as magical for me and my husband too. We will definitely be back to see you next year. Merry Christmas Santa.x”

Exclusive Home Visit Reviews

“If you would like a treat and bring the magic of Christmas to your home. There is nothing like it. Santa makes it personal and for any doubters out there, that will go out of the window! Only thing missing was flying reindeer! You give Santa a list of things good, bad and improvements and he takes on board. He has the children eating out his hands! A few funny questions from the children too! Fills your house with fun, love and laughter! Best money you will spend! Forget queuing to see a man with a fake beard in a shed, that you walk away with an over expensive photo And doesn’t even know the child’s name Get him in your house! I promise you, you will not be disappointed! Beware… you might actually believe yourself“
