General information

The camp is open from 30.03 till 13.10.2024. The camp is closed during winter season, but you are always welcome to visit our restaurant.

Booking is not required in the pre-season (01.04. - 30.06.) and post-season (28.08. - 01.10.), but is definitely recommended during the high season (July, August). We suggest checking our camping pitches and other accommodation possibilities.

You can book pitches, bungalows and apartment through our booking system (available on the front page), the process is short and easy. A valid credit or prepaid card is required to confirm your reservation.

 

- To confirm the reservation of the PITCH - NO ADVANCE PAYMENT IS REQUIRED.

- Your credit card serves as a guarantee of your arrival. In case of non-arrival or cancellation of the reservation, we will charge your credit card for the amount in accordance with the conditions of cancellation or the general conditions of the camp, about which you will also be informed to your e-mail address.

 

- To confirm the reservation of the BUNGALOW or APARTMENT your credit card will be CHARGED within 5 DAYS in the amount of 20% of the total service (accommodation unit costs).

- After the transaction, we will send an official reservation confirmation to your e-mail address, along with a confirmation of the transaction. The prepayment will be deducted from the final amount upon Check-Out. In the event that we are unable to charge your credit card for this amount, your reservation will not be processed/confirmed.

 

Unfortunately we do not accept bookings for 1 night, but you can of course come to our campsite and choose a pitch in our Free Zone (the only zone where you can stay for 1 night) when you arrive. The sooner you arrive, the more pitches will be available. We suggest arriving between 12:00 and 15:00, just after Check-Outs, so you have the best chance of securing a place during this time.

If you do not have a (suitable) personal or business credit card to complete the reservation online, please send us an email on camping@sobec.si or booking@sobec.si. We will prepare an offer for you to pay for the reservation by bank transfer (to confirm the reservation without a payment card, an advance payment of 80% of the total amount of the offer is required).

Unfortunately, we do not accept reservations or enquiries by phone. All bookings are made only via the campsite's booking system, through an automated process or by sending your enquiry to our email address. All the necessary tools and information are available on the portal. For general questions or assistance, please contact us at booking@sobec.si.

It is not possible to reserve specific pitch numbers in accordance with the campsite's general conditions. However, if the desired pitch is still available at the time you booked, we will of course allocate it to you, but we reserve the right to change the conditions of your booking (change of pitch number) in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

You can mention all your preferences when booking on the online booking portal, section - 'Your Note'. The sales team will endeavour to find a suitable pitch for you that will still be available during the desired booking period, according to your preferences, which you can specify when making your online booking.

If possible (subject to availability in our system), we will be happy to exchange your pitch upon your arrival at the campsite.

Discounts from various car and camping clubs are not shown on the online booking system. If you are a member of Avtokampi.si, ADAC (camping), ACSI, ANWB, please show us your membership card at check-in or check-out at reception and we will apply the discount according to the current price list (section 'Discounts') of the campsite.

You can change your reservation (number of persons and dates) free of charge up to 7 days before the scheduled arrival date, depending on availability (period or type of accommodation). In the event of a change in the number of pitches or persons (increase), you will be charged according to the campsite's current price list.

The most common reason for not receiving a confirmation letter is a misspelled email address. The reason you did not receive a confirmation letter may also be due to a spam filter that has detected the mail with the confirmation letter as unwanted. If you have not printed your confirmation letter after booking and have not received it by email despite checking your spam/junk mailbox, please contact us at: booking@sobec.si.

Of course, on the online booking portal it is only possible to book parcelled zones of the campsite, but in addition to those, we also have unparcelled areas (the Free Zone, which covers about 1/3 of the campsite) for which we do not accept bookings, which means that you can choose your place in this zone upon your arrival at the campsite. During the high season (July and August) we recommend arriving between 12:00 and 15:00, as this is the best time to secure a pitch in the Free Zone. For up-to-date information on availability, please call +386 (0)4 53 53 700.

You will be asked to confirm your departure date at Check-In. In case of early departure, you will be charged the cost of the pitch until the end of your stay (we will not charge you for the overnight costs per person). Compensation in case of early departure is not charged in case of illness or force majeure.

Yes, the water quality is excellent in the region where the campsite is located, so you can drink it without any worries.

Tomi the Turtle first came to our camp around 2000. Before, his home was one of the local primary schools which entrusted Tomi to us during school summer holidays, and Tomi has been with us ever since. He is certainly not lonely, as he does not really like the company of other turtles (tested!). We care for him every day and feed him regularly. We would kindly ask all our visitors to not feed Tomi the Turtle and to not reach inside the tank with their hands.

Yes. See more information on the next subpage.

Slovenia lies between the Alps, the Adriatic Sea and the Pannonian Plain. The country has several climates: continental, Mediterranean and mountain. In winter we have snow, April and November are the rainiest months. The rest of the year, temperatures range between 25 and 35 degrees Celsius. It may rain occasionally, but Slovenia doesn't get the title "Land on the sunny side of the Alps" for nothing.

We suggest visiting one of caves, museums or indoor pools (Wellness Živa, Aquapark Bohinj).
