    We rented bikes from Waterside Bike Hire recently and the whole process was seamless. Simple online booking system and we picked the bikes up the next day, they offered us different types depending on how we wanted to ride, we chose the more casual models that were perfect for a leisurely ride. The views along the trail are stunning, so much wildlife to see also. Thanks for your professionalism and an easy pick up and drop off guys!

    Hired a bike from here, very friendly service, with a great bike supplied. Free parking to park your car for the day, right next to the Tarka trail. We biked into Instow, a little village with some lovely sandy beaches and great pubs to eat and drink at. We had a 7 and 8 year old with us, we biked from the hire shop @10am, into Instow, had a Sunday roast with drinks, then biked back and arrived back at the hire shop at around 4pm great service, good quality bikes hired

    We hired 15 bikes and a dog trailer. The location is perfect and the service was excellent over the phone and when we got there they were well organised and efficient. Highly recommend Waterside Bikes for a slow meander along the Tarka Trail. Thank you.

    Superb service, and great bikes. Kes was super-helpful, and his whole demeanour was a chilled and relaxed as you'd like to be on holiday! Fabulous little start-up company - definitely worthy of support. I wish Kes and his brother every success!

  • We had a really great experience hiring bikes from these guys today. We’re not regular riders and with 2 kids who aren’t experienced. They fitted us quickly, helped us with a route and were really friendly. We had a wonderful few hours taking in the views. Really recommend!

    Very helpful and quickly found bikes suitable for 74 , 40 and 11yr old. We cycled 20 mile round trip to Instow along Tarka trail much to our delight . Plenty room to leave car as Waterside Bikes is on an Industrial Est but right by Tarka trail Definitely a highlight of our holiday

    I was very unsure I would be able to ride a bike due to a disc issue; however the level of friendly service we had, encouragement and consideration was enough to make me give it a go. I had one of the electric bikes and 3 1/2 hours later we had enjoyed a stretch of the Tarka Trail. Fantastic weather, cloudy after rain and it was one of the best days out we had. Will become an annual part of our holiday in the area without a doubt and can recommend this business highly.

    Brilliant service. All the e bikes were suited to us according to need and ability. This happened once we turned up and all the instructions and advice was given. All the staff were friendly and highly knowledgable. Wouldn't go anywhere else now, brilliant ride around the river, over the bridge to a beautiful spot with a cafe and gorgeous view. Then on to a pretty little town. Did all that in a morning with the e bikes!
