About Hoseasons
Books self-catering holiday accommodation across England, Scotland and Wales, from lodges and holiday parks to cottages and canal boats. The audience ranges from families and dog owners to couples booking a weekend away, most searching by destination or by feature such as a hot tub or a lakeside setting.
The portfolio covers lodges with private hot tubs, holiday parks with swimming pools and entertainment, boat holidays on canals, rivers and the Broads, and cottages let through owner partners. Several ranges are sold as named collections: the Magnificent Collection and James Collection for higher-spec lodges, Autograph Lodge Holidays and Evermore Lodge Holidays aimed at hot tub and family stays respectively, Wanderwood for woodland settings, Daisy Door for cottages and apartments, Bouja for boutique breaks, and Starboard for its boat fleet. Destinations run from Cornwall, Devon and the Lake District to Snowdonia, the Scottish Highlands and the Norfolk Broads, with properties searchable by region or by theme such as golf, spa breaks or dog-friendly stays.
Hoseasons traces back to 1944 and now operates as a trading name of Awaze Vacation Rentals Ltd, headquartered in Lowestoft, Suffolk, which remains the base of the wider Awaze group. It is an ABTA member and works with independent park operators, boatyards and cottage owners rather than owning the properties itself, listing accommodation booked directly through its website or by phone.

Questions about Hoseasons
Can I take my dog on a Hoseasons holiday?
Properties displaying a paw symbol with a number of 1 or higher accept dogs, and guests should note the number of dogs in their party when booking. Some properties charge a fee for pets under the 'Pets allowed' scheme, while 'Pets go free' properties do not.
Is bed linen provided at Hoseasons accommodation?
Most Hoseasons properties include bed linen and towels at no extra cost, with any additional charges noted in the property description. Some accommodations require guests to request linen or duvets in advance, and cot linen is never provided.
Do Hoseasons lodges have hot tubs?
Hoseasons has one of the largest collections of hot tub breaks in the UK, with lodges and holiday parks across the country offering private hot tubs as a feature. These are highlighted within the accommodation description and can be filtered for when searching.
Is there Wi-Fi at Hoseasons accommodation?
Whether Wi-Fi is available depends on the individual property, and this will be clearly indicated in the accommodation description or features list. Hoseasons cannot guarantee network conditions or that a Wi-Fi connection will be unlimited.
Are cots and highchairs available at Hoseasons properties?
Most accommodations can provide cots and highchairs, which can be added as extras during booking or afterwards through My Account, though additional charges may apply. Cot linen is not supplied and all cots and highchairs must meet British or European safety standards.
Can I change the dates of my Hoseasons holiday?
Guests can change their holiday dates by logging into My Account up to 10 weeks before departure, though a £35 amendment fee plus any price difference applies. Shortening a stay requires contacting Customer Support, who charge an additional £20 admin fee if they make the change.
How do I cancel my Hoseasons booking?
Cancellations can be made online through My Account by selecting the relevant booking, and clicking cancel will show a quote for any charges before confirming. If the full balance has not been paid and the travel date is more than 10 weeks away, changing dates instead may be an option.
When is the balance due for a Hoseasons booking?
The balance due date is shown in My Account and in most cases falls 10 weeks before arrival, though it can sometimes be 6 or 8 weeks depending on the booking.
What does Hoseasons' ABTA membership cover?
Hoseasons is an ABTA member (numbers Y0662 and L4801), which provides financial protection for money paid on package holidays and access to ABTA's dispute resolution scheme, though this protection does not extend to accommodation-only or boat-only bookings.
Can I add a discount code to an existing Hoseasons booking?
Discount codes must be applied at the time of booking, either through the discount provider's website or at checkout if issued directly by Hoseasons, as codes cannot be applied retrospectively.
