Apartment Bled, Slovenia
Please remember that a reservation is a legal contract.
1. Definition of Terms
Apartment Bled is the name of the rental property at Grajska 46. Bled,
Slovenia. The property is owned by Alec and Ana Wersun (the Owners).
Parties applying to rent properties are referred to as 'the Clients'
until the commencement of their let when they are referred to as 'the
Tenants'. Contracts to let the property are therefore between the Owners
of the property and the Clients/Tenants.
2. Deposits
When a booking is made more than 6 weeks before the tenancy is due to
commence, a deposit of one-third of the total rental must be paid to
confirm the booking. If a booking is made 6 weeks or less before the
tenancy is due to commence, the full rent, together with any additional
charges, must be paid at the time the booking is made. If the Agent
does not accept a booking, then all monies paid will be refunded immediately.
3. Balance of Rental
Once a booking has been accepted by the Agent, the Clients must pay
the balance of rental, together with any additional charges, six weeks
before the tenancy commences. If the balance has not been paid by this
time the Owners reserve the right to cancel the booking, in which case
a cancellation charge will apply. The Owners are not obliged to send
reminders - the date on which the balance is due is clearly indicated
on the Booking Confirmation. The Owners reserve the right to amend prices
quoted on the web site due at any time, and in particular due to errors
or omissions.
4. UK Bookings
Bookings can be made by e-mail. Names of all clients need to be provided.
Payments will be accepted by cheques made payable to 'A.A. Wersun' or
cash. The Owners cannot accept post-dated cheques and cash should only
be sent by recorded delivery. Any charges imposed on the Owners by their
Bank for handling dishonoured cheques, bank transfers or other payments
will be passed on to the clients who are liable to reimburse the Owners
in respect of these charges within 7 days of notification from the Owners.
If a payment by Direct Debit is not honoured then the Client should
pay the deposit and balance as outlined in paragraphs 2 and 3.
5. Overseas Bookings
Bookings can be made by e-mail. Names of all clients need to be provided.
Overseas Clients may pay by sterling cheque drawn on a UK bank, or by
a Euro cheque / transfer to a Slovenian Bank. Any charges for overseas
payments will be passed on to the Clients.
6. Authority to Sign
The person completing the booking form certifies that:
a. He/she is authorised to agree the booking conditions on behalf of
all persons included on the booking form, including those who may be
added/substituted at a later date.

7. Eligibility
Bookings will not be accepted without prior consent from the Owners
from:
a. Groups of single persons under the age of 21.
b. All male or all female parties comprising more than 4 people.
8. The Tenancy Agreement
Properties are let for a minimum of 3 days, and a maximum of 4 weeks.
Lettings commence at 4pm on the first day of the tenancy and end at
10am on the departure date unless otherwise agreed. The tenancy period
cannot be extended without the Owner’s permission. Tenants will
be liable for any cost whatsoever incurred as a result of an unauthorised
extension.
9. Linen
Bed linen and towels are 'included' in the property description. Linen
is changed between tenancies, and weekly during tenancies. Tenants should
always bring their own beach towels.
10. Extras at Apartment Bled
There will be a charge to cover electricity costs for heating
and water in the colder months (normally October to March).
11. Pets
Pets are accepted at properties only with the prior consent of the Owners
and are to be kept under control at all times and exercised off the
premises. The Owners cannot accept responsibility for their safety.
They should not be allowed in the bedrooms or on the furniture, or be
left unsupervised in the property due to the risk of damage to furniture
etc. Tenants are responsible for cleaning up any fouling which their
pets may cause around the property. A weekly charge will be made for
each pet and in some cases a refundable damage deposit may be required.
Where a description states that pets are not accepted this does not
mean that there have never been any pets at the property.
12. The Tenants' Obligations
a. To pay for all gas, electricity, fuel and other charges not stated
as included in the rental.
b. To pay for any losses or damage to the property caused by the Tenants
or a member of their party (reasonable wear and tear excluded) unless
such loss or damage can be made good under any householder's insurance
policy held by the Owners.
c. To take good care of the property and leave it in a clean and tidy
condition at the end of the tenancy. An end of tenancy cleaning service
is provided and is obligatory. A refundable damage deposit may sometimes
be required. See note 22.
d. To allow the Owners reasonable access to the property.
e. To not exceed the total number of people as stipulated in the description
of the property, and not to transfer possession of the property or share
it except with members of the party as shown on the Booking Form.
f) To notify the Agent prior to the commencement of the tenancy of any
changes to party numbers.
g) To not cause undue noise or disruption or become a nuisance to occupants
of any adjoining premises.

13. Alteration of a Booking
When the Owner has accepted a booking, the dates of the holiday may
be changed providing the apartment is available for the new dates and
the Owners are agreeable to the change. In either case a re-booking
fee of Euros 30 is payable.
14. Cancellations
All cancellations must be notified to the Owners before the holiday
commences, ideally by telephone but in any case in writing within 7
days of the event that gives rise to the cancellation. While every effort
will be made to re-let a cancellation, it is important to remember that
if a substitute tenant cannot be found, the client remains responsible
for the period of the reserved tenancy, plus the cost of any additional
advertising which may be necessary.
15. Complaints
All complaints must first be referred to the owner/caretaker during
the tenancy to allow remedial action to be taken.
16. Non-availability of Property
If for any reason beyond the Owner's control the property is unavailable
on the day when the tenancy is due to begin (e.g. due to flooding, fire
damage etc.) or the property becomes unsuitable for holiday letting,
clients will receive a full refund of all rents and charges already
paid. The Owenrs will make every effort to find a suitable alternative
property but the Clients shall have no further claim against the Owners.
Please also refer to section 20.
17. Liability
The Owners accept no liability for any act, neglect or default on the
part of the Owners or any other person not employed by them or under
their control, nor for any accident, damage, loss, injury, expense or
inconvenience to either person or property which the Tenants, or any
other person, may suffer or incur arising from, or in any way connected
with, the Tenancy. The Owners accept no liability for loss or damage
to the Tenants' possessions on the Owners' land or property. Please
also refer to section 20.
18. Breach of Contract
If Tenants breach any of the above terms and conditions the Owners or
Agent reserve the right to re-enter the property and terminate the tenancy,
without prejudice to the other rights and remedies of the owners.

19. Validity Clause
If any term or provision in these Booking Conditions shall in whole
or in part be held to any extent to be illegal or unenforceable under
any enactment or rule of law, that term or provisions or part shall,
to that extent, be deemed not to form part of this agreement and the
enforceability of the remainder of this agreement shall not be affected.
20. Force Majeure
The owner does not accept liability or pay for any loss, damage or expense
where our obligations are prevented or affected by reason of force majeure.
Force Majeure means any event which we or the owner providing the service
could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid such as war or threat
of war, riots, civil strife, terrorist activity, epidemic, pandemic,
industrial action, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather
conditions, closure of airports or ports, technical problems with transport,
governmental action and all other similar events.
21. Web Descriptions
While every effort is made to make the web site descriptions as accurate
as possible, some of the information contained relates to factors which
are beyond the control of the Owners, such as shops, public houses etc.
Details of such establishments may change without the Owner’s

To facilitate booking and in some instances, the owners will collect
refundable household deposits and then monitor their normal repayment
by the owner to the tenant.

previous web sites and booking conditions, and in the case of any discrepancy
between these booking conditions and any other communications from the
