I was impressed by the number of shops here. We initially stopped here for something to eat but ended up staying for an afternoon. Nice food court with KFC, pasta, cafe and others. Shops include Nike, Clarks and Marks and Spencer's with outlet prices. A good few "outdoors" shops for hiking gear etc. Lots of chocolate shops too, yummy! A... More

Visited this place last Saturday as my husband wanted to go to the Clarks shop. I read the reviews on here first so knew not to get there before 10.00 as the shops didn't open until then. It took us about an hour and 10 minutes from where we live and on arriving found the car park to be quite... More

Unlike everywhere else on planet earth, Swindon outlet doesn't open until 10 am, even on the busiest shopping day of the week. Saturday. Having arrived at 9am, parked up and discovered this very weird fact, I paid my car parking fee and left the droves of other shoppers who were wandering around looking bewildered that it was Saturday morning in...

Loved the layout as you didn't miss anything! The staff in the shops we visited (which was the majority) were really nice and helpful. A good mix of shops, lots of eating facilities and things to keep youngsters amused. Car parking is £1 for up to 5 hours but if you spend over £100 its free, we didn't pay for... More

I live in Swindon and was disappointed to see so many negative reviews of the outlet experience. I have visited other outlets, including Bicester and The Street and found them crowded and overpriced with hard to access parking and very limited eating facilities. Swindon in contrast is spacious, undercover (so great in our frequent bad weather), has good parking facilities... More

Perfect place... More

The outlet is starting to let itself down as they are shutting really good shops. Having said that, there is still a fairly good range of shops for adult clothing and suitcases. What they need now is more children's clothing as Mamas and Papas and Pumpkin Patch have both gone. Phase Eight also disappeared recently which was a huge shame.... More

The good thing is that the Outlet is all undercover and designed for easy shopping. A smart locomotive awaits restoration and is an attractive feature as the shops are in the old Swindon railway works. There are plenty of shops with a choice of quite pricey merchandise to appeal to young shoppers mostly. The not-so-good thing is the all pervading... More

I was dragged here, but found myself pleasantly susprised. We started in the food court, as it was lunchtime, you could choose from KFC, a jacket potato place, Harry Ramsdens fish and chips, a couple of cafe type places doing panninis and sarnies, and more. Onto the shops, we mainly stuck to clothing, but found a wide selection and were... More
