It’s now official, Santa's reindeer live in a small village called Cold Hesledon in County Durham. (WELL FOR EVERY NIGHT EXCEPT CHRISTMAS EVE) Or at least that’s what people are thinking when they are traveling on the A19 dual carriageway near Murton and see the Reindeer that Live with George and Tracey Richardson at their Garden Centre.

Some of the Reindeer are on display to the public in October, November, and December at Richardsons Garden Centre, when their centre is transformed in to a Christmas extravaganza with decorations, lights, trees and grotto. They also get out and about when hired to other Garden Centres, Museums, stately homes, shopping centres, cities, towns and villages for Christmas fetes, grotto openings and photo shoots around the country. You never know you may even see them in a movie or TV program.
You could even adopt one of the Reindeer and along with a Birthday card, Christmas card, adoption certificate and fluffy reindeer toy you also get to come with the family and feed the reindeer twice in the year when the reindeer are not on public display. (Prior appointment needed) Just fill in our adoption form.

The Reindeer are available to hire for public appearances around the country at fetes, grotto openings, Christmas spectaculars and even for private appearances at parties. Imagine reindeer roaming through your offices delivering the secret Santa presents, with handlers of course. They are also available for TV and photographic work. To enquire about prices just fill in our enquiry form.
All of our reindeer and handlers are fully trained as well as been fully insured and have all the relevant licenses and paperwork that is involved in the display and handling of performing animals, all of our handlers are in smart practical uniforms which shouldn’t look out of place in your display. We can cater our displays generally around what you may want with either moving and static displays or a combination of both. We generally have 2 or more deer involved in the display with or without our genuine Norwegian sleighs.

We can even supply Santa if needed.
Reindeer always create a lot of good PR for your event, think of all that free publicity that can be created. The media both paper, tv and social networks all take an interest when reindeer and christmas are mentioned.

Our animal welfare is of the upmost importance to us so the more details you can provide to  us when enquiring the more it helps us with your event.
We are also involved with a small breeding program with our reindeer, with young born in the summer out with the mums in the christmas period.
