Great service from the team. Give them a call in advance or book online to guarantee bike availability. Recommended. Good quality bikes, with a nice mix of e-bikes, hybrid, Dutch style, mountain and child bikes. Mix of Raleigh, Squish, Lapierre ... They also have helmets and bike locks available. Knowledgeable staff will set the bikes up perfectly for you and can advise on routes to take and locations you're likely to reach. We rode along the Tarka Trail, perfect for a family ride, good surfaced path, easy to follow and mostly flat. Handy cafe of the same name just round the corner, for lunch before our snacks after.

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.

Very friendly and helpful staff, and all that we need for a day cycling on the Tarka trail.

Very friendly. Great value.

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.

Great location right on the Tarka Trail from Braunton, friendly guys with a good choice of bikes. Reasonable day rate at £15pp and they also made sure we had a bike lock, helmets and puncture repair kit. Also free parking on site making it super easy. Would definitely recommend!

Had an amazing day out, hired bikes & 2 trailers for our dogs. The guys were so helpful and friendly which made the day out even more enjoyable. Would definitely recommend! Thanks so much.

Absolutely fantastic service from Waterside Bike Hire. 100% would return again! Thank you so much.

Really friendly and helpful, close to the café for ice creams and coffee, right beside Tarka Trail. Definitely recommend

Quick and easy bike hire on top of the trail, competitive pricing.

Very friendly service took time to size the right bikes for our mixed group of Adults,teenagers 2 over 6ft tall and a novice child.highly recommend the E bike especially for someone who isn't an experienced rider and is part of a group who want to go and do a few hours on the Tarka trail as it meant she could Keep up and zoom past the others Which kept her engaged with the ride and meant we could stay out longer.good selection of mountain,hybrid and E bikes would definitely recommend picking up the Tarka trail from here as it's Safe and easy to join the trail without going on any road so ideal for young children or inexperienced road rider's.thank you for making our day as we had a disaster with our own bikes,the teenager forgot to bring the bike lock key to unlock the bike's from the car carrier so we had to hire bikes for all,this was no trouble and we all had a Great afternoon from 1.30 to 5pm including the dog who ran alongside with us 👍 would definitely come back here.

Quick friendly service even though we turned up without booking. Great high quality, comfortable bikes. Easy free parking. Great location right on the tarka trail

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!

Great place, nice guys and good equipment all at sensible rates. No hidden extras on the day. Very relaxed and helpful for where to go with a 6 year old.. great trail and fantastic business. Cheers Waterside Bike Hire..!

Really, really good service. Friendly, no fuss, and great prices.

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 great bike from here over the bank holiday weekend - great price and wonderful customer service.

Perfect location, reasonable prices, great service, decent bikes, great day out

Great place to hire bikes from, park up and enjoy the Tarka Trail. Follow signs through the gated industrial site. Hired a bike for my wife, found and adjusted a lovely Romet Stepover. Set off for traffic free cycle to Bideford. Great choice of bikes, kids, trailers etc Left the car parked up there (bonus) Many thanks to the chaps there, really pleasant and helpful (allowed us to shorten our hire since the weather had gone poor). The tarka trail is ideal for a family cycle. Flat smooth surface, no hills other than bridge - Bideford is about 12mls. Bring a padlock so you can lock up at the station and stretch your legs. Keep up the superb service Chaps, hope it's a real success for you.

Very helpful and good bikes to hire

Wouldn't hesitate to hire from here again the team were so helpful and friendly. A fantastic experience for me and my family!

Good value and friendly service.

Very friendly, free helmet hire and great quality bikes available. Easy to find free parking and easy access to the tarka trail.

Cannot recommend highly enough. Went above and beyond for an out of season hire. Great quality bikes with a friendly and helpful service. Will definitely use again and good luck with your next season. You guys deserve to do well.

These guys provide first class equipment and service and respond quickly to communications. Helped us to create a bespoke coast to coast trip using their fabulous e bikes. Fair prices and great people to deal with. Thanks

Very friendly, helpful service. Ideal location for hiring bikes for the Tarka Trail 🚲

Really impressed. Friendly and great bikes. Got caught up in a storm which slowed us coming back and KES was happy to wait for us. Lovely cafe there too.
