The staff were present

The staff were present, I spoke to 5 different assistants for help with different things and each of them gave great advice with products, especially the guy who demo’d the camp bed that I purchased. I’m considering investing in an inflatable tent and will definitely come back to the same store when I’m ready to purchase. It’s refreshing to visit a store and have so many helpful people on hand. Well done and thank you for restoring my faith in shopping.

The company website is clunky

The company website is clunky, never allows you to use discount codes. I had to buy another discount card and then get refunded. Delivery is very slow, when you go to the shop the staff don’t seem to want to be there. You get passed around, love what’s in the shop but never an easy experience.

We went into Go Outdoors to buy a cycle helmet and then we saw what a great selection of good quality, affordable bikes they had! We ended up buying a bike and were helped and advised by James T who was great and very knowledgeable. Would happily recommend the products and staff in this department.

Both Paul (for my husband) and Lynda (a few days later for me!) were very helpful when buying sturdy walking shoes in Basingstoke🙂. We were spending a lot of money so keen to get it right, and even though we were in a rush to collect our son off the train next door when buying my husband's, so couldn't try on too many (!), we are very happy with our purchases 😃

Knowledgeable staff selling shoes

The two members of staff who served me( I was trying on walking shoes and boots) couldn’t have been more helpful. They actually knew about the product they were selling. Well done Lynda and Paul.

Great Service Again

As always a great experience and outcome. Cullan at the Basingstoke store again was really nice to work with. He assessed a problem we had with the pedals on our bike in no time and my kids are always happy to tell me that they like him too!!!!
Thank you.

Advise with hiking boots

Paul was very helpful when we were choosing hiking boots for a school trip. Loads of advice on why the prices varied between brands, fitting and how there are different methods of tying the laces. We really appreciated his time and knowledge.
