Always our go-to store for camping bits as the staff are always so helpful and friendly. Lots of choice and good value for money, especially using a Camping and Caravanning Club card for discount, or Scouting discount as both our children get bits for their expeditions too. Thank you Go Outdoors, we’ll see you again soon!

Thanks to Joe Simes for recommending the perfect camping chair for my Granddaughter. He made sure of the load capacity and had her sit on it for size and comfort. She chose the lovely green one for her upcoming camping trip to Weymouth.

Thank you for saving us!!!

Thank you Go Outdoors (and particularly Paul F) for a great service. I was camping with my family when our inflatable tent exploded. We managed to get to the store with 20 mins to spare before they closed. Paul could not have been more helpful, calm and patient considering it was time to close. We got a great deal on a really good tent with lots of recommendations and advice. Thank you for saving our holiday.

Thanks Paul from Southampton!

I was picking up a backpack and sleeping bag when Paul immediately offered advice based on gear he has trialled and errored. Really lovely bloke. Everyone needs Paul when buying gear and are a bit in the dark about choice. I wish I could ask him every time I’m in an outdoor shop

Paul F

Paul F. was really helpful in explaining to us how to connect the cadac to our caravan. He gave us really useful advice and without it we would’ve ended up going to the Isle of Wight without working gas. Thank you Paul!

Click & Collect communication issues.

Ordering and paying for the bike was straight forward enough, I chose to get it delivered to store for click and collect. However my date for collection came and went with no email to say it was ready for collection. I phoned customer services who said it had been delivered to store 2 days after i'd ordered, so before the date I had been given to collect it. I phoned the store direct and they said it was showing as still in transit and they didn't have it. The next day I phoned customer services again who confirmed it definitely had been delivered to store, they then phoned the store themselves who then confirmed they had received the bike after all. The reason it was still showing as in transit is because they don't scan it in as delivered in store until it's been built and ready for collection. As there was a delay in bike builds by about 4-5 days it meant i'd have been waiting about another week for them to finally say it had been delivered. It would have been better for them to let me know they had the bike as soon as it was delivered to store but then say there was a delay in getting it built. At least then i'd know what was going on rather than wondering if my bike had somehow got lost in the delivery process. In the end I picked the bike up and built it myself, it was only the handlebars, front wheel and pedals to put on so pretty straight forward.

I love the bike & would probably use Go Outdoors again. I just think a bit more communication would have been helpful.

Popped in to buy a pair of chairs for our new motorhome and were helped by Paul F, nothing was too much trouble and he was very knowledgeable about the products, if Carlsberg did customer service.

Travelled from Poole for an item that according to your website, was apparently in stock. Only to arrive and find non of the items available. Paul F, went above and beyond to locate the item from a recent delivery. Excellent customer service.

Staff Member - Paul F

Staff Member - Paul F. Paul was exceptional throughout. I came to look for replacement poles and wanted to talk to someone knowledgeable. He was busy with two others customers, but we waited for him. You could tell he knew what he was talking about. He found us the poles, told us how to replace them. Then he gave us a tour of 4 new tents we asked about. Top notch talent. A credit to your store.

Went in to buy a tent, no staff spoke to us. 50 minutes before close we where in a tent talking about size, a lad avoids us closing other tents at no point asking to help.

Have been trying to buy two chairs..

Have been trying to buy two chairs for months, they're not in stock so ordered them both for full price with the expectation to return them and then buy them again at members price as go outdoors doesn't amend orders or even pick up the phone. So far I've Managed to collect one of the chairs at full price, the second one was discounted after complaining, I went to pick up the second chair and sort the first but it turns out they had returned the chair due to it not being in stock again yet the manager did tell me they had the chair in stock but I'd have to buy that separately and then phone klarna and ask if they can cancel the payment to go outdoors... Something I've never had to do on a companies behalf before, I mean refusing to give me the second chair then telling me to phone klarna to cancel it literally made me feel as if i was going to have a stress induced epileptic seizure so needed to leave the store promptly after that, I would love to talk to someone to deal with this but the only way to get hold of them is when you complain on a third party website..

We are sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration this situation has caused.

We appreciate how disappointing it must have been to spend months trying to purchase the chairs you wanted, only to encounter ongoing stock issues, difficulties with order amendments, and conflicting information regarding collection and availability.

We also understand your concerns about being asked to resolve payment arrangements directly with Klarna, particularly when you were simply trying to obtain the items you had ordered.

This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we're sorry that your experience has left you feeling frustrated and unsupported.

We have sent a email to the email address linked on the order to provide some further information on the wanted stock.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.

Kind regards
