2 Who we are Hoseasons was established in 1944 by Wally Hoseason, whose boat hire fleet offered the very first Hoseasons holidays on the Norfolk Broads. The business rapidly grew to include marketing holiday homes alongside boats, forming the basis of the agency you see today. Wally s son James took on the business in 1950 and James drive and foresight drove the company forward, establishing the enviable market leading position it enjoys today. From these unassuming beginnings Hoseasons has transformed the UK self-catering holiday market and has evolved into the largest self-catering agency in the country. From the flagship Lodges and Parks portfolio to secluded country cottages and luxurious European villas we offer an unrivalled choice of hand-picked destinations. HOSEASONS
