Swaleview park

Swaleview Park is based in the Yorkshire Dales national park. Established in the 1940’s, we sell lodges and luxury caravans as holiday homes. We have been clients of Clive Owen LLP since 2012 – they advise on various aspects of business and finance including VAT, corporation tax, accounts, financial planning and business structure. As we grow as a company, Clive Owen are always supportive, and a company who provide a highly professional, invaluable service.

Clive Owen have been there for us – through many changing seasons. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Kevin Shotton and the team provided excellent support and advice which helped guide us towards the new season and the positive impact on the business of staycations.

Clive Owen add value by keeping us informed of the latest tax, business, and investments news, through a team of experts who always provide a rapid, honest response. We highly recommend the friendly team at Clive Owen for providing a professional, approachable, reliable service; and for guidance which has contributed to business growth.

Charlotte Matthewson and Lucy Lawson said: “We chose Clive Owen as our group auditors after a thorough and competitive tender process.  A combination of experience, technical ability, personable team and value and influenced our decision.  Their local presence is also an advantage.

Having recently completed the first year audit, we are delighted with the Clive Owen team.  The timeliness of completion and their ability to grasp a new business with multiple acquisitions and group reorganisations in the year, and their pragmatic approach to the process, including the opening balance audit were excellent.  The process was a positive one.

James and his team are great to work with and we look forward to working with them going forward.”

ADM Pressings is a Newcastle-based manufacturer that specialises in metal pressings, production, fabrication, assembly, painting and customised turnkey solutions.

Following an introduction by Joe Routledge, Membership Manager of the North East Automotive Alliance, Grants Partner Carl Wright and the wider Grants team worked to a tight schedule to secure six-figure grant funding for new equipment.

Jonathan Hunter, Commercial Engineer at ADM Pressings, said:
Carl was very helpful at short notice for a bid writing assignment for a grant to fund new capital equipment for our site. He and his team quickly understood our needs and guided us through the process, providing easy to understand updates and insight along the way.  Always professional and efficient, this ensured a positive outcome, meaning we were successful in securing the grant and could achieve our project timeline.

I would have no hesitation reaching out to the Clive Owen LLP team again should similar services be required.

Clive Owen LLP supported me with my self-assessment tax return.

I was changing jobs at the time and for the first few months in my new role, I was unfortunately taxed at the wrong level. It got quite complicated and HMRC were giving me different codes weekly at one point!

I dealt with Lee Watson who was always available and happy to advise regarding any questions I had. He then did my self-assessment tax return to tie up the move of companies and help me get the correct tax code.

The flexibility to be able to contact Lee and get a reply the same day was just exceptional and gave me peace of mind and the confidence that I was following HMRC tax requirements correctly.

I would highly recommend Clive Owen LLP.  They offer excellent service, a quick response and I felt they were very reasonably priced.
