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.

Lovely store & lovely staff

We went in as a family to do some shopping at the Basingstoke branch and found the staff really helpful. The store was well laid out and looked lovely. My husband ( he was the one with the beer belly, thinning hair and the silly moustache) spent ages looking at all the camping gear. A big thank you to Julia on the tills who helped us out.

Hopelessly poor experience of 1st visit to go outdoor store.
Was hoping to purchase 2 zempire camping chairs,not cheap so checked online basingstoke showed 6 of both styles.
Drove the 10 miles only to be met by miserable staff who said never heard of that brand.I showed the website pic showing 6 in stock was told oh yeah we entered them but they're not here come back tomorrow.
Needless to say we won't be.

Great service

Thank you to Lynda in footwear who didn't mind having to keep finding different walking boots for me and my son to try on, despite the shoe department not appearing to be anywhere near the stock room.

Really great experience

Really great experience - Paul, from the footwear department, was incredibly patient and helpful in talking my son through the need for well laced shoes for hiking, and teaching him an effective way to tie them. Thank you so much!
