Cleaning
Enjoy your holiday right up to the very last moment - and let us take care of the cleaning
When the holiday is over, the holiday home must be cleaned. You may decide to do it yourselves or choose to leave it to us.
The final cleaning consists of the following:
cleaning of windows
floor-washing
cleaning of tables, kitchen equipment/ appliances, toilets and bathrooms
If you do leave the final cleaning to us, remember that it is still your responsibility to tidy up both inside and outside. Dishwashing of cutlery, cooking utensils, etc. and cleaning of garden furniture and the grill are part of the cleaning up duties and, therefore, are not included in the final cleaning. This also applies to removing hair shedded from pets.
Deposit
When you rent a holiday home, you have to pay a deposit. This is a payment on account, which covers the consumption, fx electricity and heat, as well as any damages on the house and inventory.
The amount must be paid together with the 2nd instalment. No later than 3 weeks after your departure from the holiday home, you will receive a statement of the electricity, telephone and oil consumption, and in case of a balance, an amount will be transferred to your account/creditcard or you will receive a specified bill.
In that way the refundment takes place automatically and you don?t have to think about the settling at your departure.
Electricity consumption
Usually, Danish holiday homes are heated with electricity. The average electricity consumption is based on houses with electricity as their primary heat source. In houses with other heat sources, like oil-fired boiler or district heating, the electricity consumption will be lower. In return you will have expenses for oil or district heating. The use of a wood-burning stove has not been considered in the average consumption.
Holiday homes without swimming pool and whirlpool Dependent on the season, our holiday guests use 6.6 kWh per person per day on average.
During the hottest summer month the average consumption is 2.5 kWh, and during the coldest winter month it is 13 kWh per person per day.
Reservations The electricity consumption in an energy-friendly holiday home is 15 % lower on average.
The electricity for heating of the sauna is not included in the average consumption.
The estimates are based on the average number of persons per square metre. If you stay just a few persons in a large house, you have to take a higher consumption than the average into account.
