Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Delivery very good. Excellent with arranging returns. The socks I bought are very comfortable. The Merrell goretex size 9.5 have come up rather small but are very waterproof.

Heidi was great. She offered me a membership with no pressure to join. Ended up buying a RAB jacket and she was able to give me a military discount. Awesome associate, awesome store.

Although my preferred choice was not available in my size, Amy was patient and knowledgeable. She was able to find a suitable alternative amongst the sale items, which also saved me a few pounds.

Ellie and Amy Dorchester

Ellie and Amy were hugely helpful yesterday in finding me a pair of walking boots. They managed to secure me a £30 discount. 5* service.

Helpful staff in great shop

Ellie was extremely helpful as well as being friendly. I didn't need any real help finding what I wanted but Ellie gave useful advice when the payment machines played up. Very happy with the gloves I got (found them easily too in the well-laid out shop) - all ready for colder weather now.

I came in looking for a rucksack for a 3 day hike in Dartmoor. I was served by Tom who was very informative and recommended the right bag for me, as well as a dry bag due to the weather looking quite wet and stormy.

Pleasant experience

Went into the Dorchester store today and was greeted politely and ask how they could assist me. I went in for a particular item which unfortunately they did not have in stock but they showed me alternatives that would meet my needs. I came away with an alternative jacket. It was a pleasant experience from start to finish, i will use them again. Thank you

Fantastic service!

Heidi was my extremely helpful assistant, taking trouble to find the best solution for my need.
I was looking for a particular waterproof backpack liner. When we realised that it would be too big for my backpack and that they didn't have a smaller one, Heidi suggested that I look at the drysacks which are lighter and more flexible, with a greater range of sizes. It was extremely useful that we could try out both the liner and the drysack in my own backpack.
Heidi was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable, and made my purchase a pleasure. Thanks!

Buying waterproof coats

We were served by Heidi who helped us find the items we were looking for. She unpacked a number of items of clothing so that we could try them on and check that we were satisfied. She informed us of money saving offers.
