Rental conditions

1 GENERAL

1.1 By Sommerhuse (hereinafter “BY”) does not own the holiday home that BY facilitates for rental. The holiday home is thus made available by the house's legal owner (hereinafter "landlord"). BY is only the party that makes the holiday home available to the tenant on behalf of the landlord and at the landlord's expense and risk. BY has entered into a separate agreement with the landlord, which gives BY an exclusive right to arrange the rental of the landlord's holiday home.

1.2 These rental conditions and the rental agreement entered into between the landlord and the tenant together constitute the terms of the agreement that the tenant enters into with BY ("hereinafter the rental documents"). To the extent that BY lays down rules of order regarding the use of the leased property, these are added, and thus also include the rental documents. It is noted that travel agencies, internet portals and other booking sites not owned by BY may not enter into agreements that deviate from these rental terms. Services that may be purchased through the landlord - or services provided in addition by the landlord - are to be regarded as agreements entered into with third parties, which is why such are not covered by these rental conditions and BY is otherwise irrelevant in all respects.

2 CONCLUSION OF RENTAL AGREEMENT

2.1 The tenant's submission of a booking constitutes a binding offer to BY to enter into an agreement on the rental of the holiday home selected by the tenant. Orders can be made in writing, orally or by telephone.

2.2 BY's acceptance of the offer takes place by subsequent submission of written acceptance and submission of rental certificate to tenant.

2.3 In case of advance reservation for subsequent rental year, the agreement is only binding when, (1.) the holiday home in question is released for rent for the year in question, (2.) the holiday home can be made available during the desired period, and (3.) prices and any changes thereto have been determined. If the above conditions (1-3) are met, a rental certificate is sent, after which the agreement is binding, cf. 2.2

2.4 BY's service consists of making the holiday home available to the tenant in accordance with the rental conditions and the rental documents. The tenant's payment consists of payment in accordance with the rental documents, which is why the tenant's transport to and from the holiday home is BY irrelevant, BY thus assumes no responsibility for the tenant's ability to use the holiday home if the tenant is cut off from transport to and from the holiday home. border closure, or the like.

3.9 BY is entitled to, in the event of price increases, increased taxes and fees and exchange rate changes, etc. to increase the rent proportionately against the submission of adequate documentation of the conditions which result in the rent increase.
