Lovely Seat, once known as Lunasett, is the highest point of Abbotside Common, three miles north of Hawes on the high ground between Wensleydale and Swaledale. The Buttertubs Pass road separates it from Great Shunner Fell to the west. Its top has a shelter, and a line of stone cairns stands on the skyline to the west of the summit. It was counted as a Marilyn until a 2010 survey found it fell short of the 150 m drop the list needs.
