They have great sales, the people are knowledgeable (although the guys in the climbing section can be a bit arrogant) and the stock is good, high quality stuff. In other words, the opposite end of the spectrum to Blacks or Millets. Come here if you need to buy a waterproof jacket, walking boots or maps. There's a cafe upstairs too, which is very popular on wet days with walkers and climbers. It's ok, but nothing to write home about.

In summer they have a big walking selection, and are great for people who need things for scout camp or Duke of Edinburgh challenges. The range is pretty incredible for a small shop out of the main town centre.

Inside on display as well is hiking clothes sleeping bags for people going camping. There is also a selection of camping equipment inside as well like stoves, water carriers, toilets/ pegs and even food which are like army rations. If you go outside through a side door is the tent section. Tents of various sizes and shapes are pitched on the grass. You can enter the bigger ones to see what they are like and also how much they are. I bought a ridge tent from here 8 years ago and it's still going strong mind u nowadays I get funny looks when I put it up due to most people buy dome tents now.
