Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The assistant, Sophie N., was most helpful, answering all our questions fully & adding other helpful comments. I felt unhurried, thus able to feel confident with my decision of what to purchase.

Had an amazing experience today

Had an amazing experience today, I was desperately looking for some thermal leggings as other stores have packed their ski gear away already! GoOutdoors didn’t have any on the shop floor but with the assistance of Nuriye and Antony they took the time to help me and used a ladder to grab the leggings from the stock in storage! Absolute saved me from being cold this weekend! Would totally recommend :)

Shout Out for James G!

We were asked if we needed any help or advise by James G as we were looking for a suitable tent for a camping trip. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient, answering our many questions about the tents displayed which helped enormously in making our final purchase decision. On our second visit to store for camping accessories James G was equally as helpful in checking stock etc. We couldn't have asked for a better service.

I’ve always been impressed with the staff at Go Outdoors. On this occasion I was at the Basingstoke store, buying hiking shoes and a backpack. I was served by James G who was very knowledgeable about the backpacks on offer and what might be right for my small frame. Thank you James G, very helpful advice!

Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service! Liv helped my girls with finding a riding helmet. She was super friendly, shared her own experiences and was really knowledgeable, that helped us come to a decision and gave my youngest a sticker to cheer her up! Nothing was a hassle or stressful. Will definitely be visiting again in the future. Thank you!

Excellent staff

Excellent. Had the help from an excellent knowledgeable young man named James G who helped us choose the right camping beds and sleeping bags as well as a camping table. He was very polite and helpful. The shop itself was well stocked and had everything we needed.

Helpful and Affable

Matthew was extremely helpful and affable, nothing was too much trouble. When the cable we needed wasn't on the shelf he went to see if there was one in the stock room. We were surprised that the Cardac BBQ we wanted was not on show so we could see it before buying, he happily unpacked a box to show us. Thank you Matthew.

The shop is spaced out very well a lot of choice and plenty of deals to be had with a discount card. When paying Julia couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. It makes such a difference when you have such lovely staff! Well done Basingstoke store!

Came in looking for a sleeping pad

Came in looking for a sleeping pad. James T helped me find what I was looking for. He was helpful and friendly. James used personal experience with products to help me make a decision and he sought advice from a colleague when he was unsure of an answer to my question. Thank you!
