Can anyone recommend a good company for subversion hosting? I'm looking to use it on a few projects, but can't be bothered to set it up myself (I'd rather get someone professional to do it).

CVSDude comes at the top of google. Anyone tried them or any other company?

May I be so bold as to suggest Bazaar version control (http://bazaar-vcs.org), and then just publishing your branch on a web server of your choice?

On the other hand, I have to warn that while Bazaar itself is mature in most aspects of version control, many of its supplementary tools (e.g., Windows GUI) are not mature. Oh, and despite improvements, its performance over the network is still rather laggy, especially over sftp. These weak points might not matter for you, however, if the ease of not needing to find a host that has a VCS installed is more important.

That said, a host that I use, GrokThis (http://www.grokthis.net) does support Subversion. It is pretty much a developer centric host, actually.

Piersk: I could host a few svn repos for you. Just need to know how much space you're going to need for your projects. I don't technically have my site set up yet, but I can set something up for you today if you needed it.

I should note that I don't use any other hosting company because I operate my own dedicated server. I also use svn for work (and it's saved my butt quite a few times thanks to windows) and seem to be the "foremost authority" there :/ I can also offer you trac or redmine (or any other software) installs to use as bug-trackers and repo browsers.
