Tenancy terms of occupation of furnished holiday house for Scotland

When to use:

For any holiday letting house or flat. Here is a similar version specially for a caravan.

Note: we offer two versions of this agreement:

SC-PR521 is an agreement to be signed and returned to the property owner;
SC-PR522 is a "terms and conditions" document providing broadly the same provisions

Note: this document comes with an example letter confirming holiday booking and incorporating these terms.

Land law is a particularly complicated area of law. We will gladly help any landlord or tenant. Just use Scot Lawman advice .

This document is in plain English but very comprehensive. Like all leases, this document has been designed primarily to protect the interest of the landlord.

It is not suitable for:

• a lease for more than three months;
• a residential letting.

This document includes provision for:

• all usual basic provisions;
• Rent: paid monthly in advance, but can be changed to suit you;
• deposit by tenant;
• Landlord's access: if needed;
• landlord's choice of letting conditions, setting out what tenant can and cannot do;
