Spectacular. Our couples vacation was amazing at Pringle Sunsets. The views were amazing. Starry skies at night were incredible. The house has a nice warm, cosy, and vintage feel about it. I would really do another holiday at Pringle Sunsets. The baboons in the area were a little bit of a shock, because when I booked that was not disclosed. But other than that, everything was perfect. Thank you for your hospitality. It was top notch.

We had a wonderful stay, but the house did not meet our expectations. Pringle Sunsets unfortunately has a general feeling of neglect and was not 100% clean. The back garden is completely unkempt with grass growing knee high. There are quite a few things that need attention: The kettle lid no longer opens, the dishwasher does not work, the bath in the main bedroom takes so long to drain that 2 people cannot bathe in succession. There is no water in the kitchen when the downstairs shower is used. The white towels are full of rust marks, there are no face towels, there was not enough toilet paper for 6 people for 3 days. The main bedroom has many lights without bulbs. The cutlery and glasses were not clean. The cupboard was dirty and very messy. The house has 2 bathrooms and not 3 as advertised. The 2nd bathroom sink is cracked with loose taps in the bath and rusty door handles. The Kolkol needs a cover to keep the water clean. All our guests felt that the house was not up to the standard advertised. We enjoyed the fantastic large indoor braai and had a lovely time around the lovely large table!

Heerlik gekuier, maar die huis het nie aan ons verwagtinge voldoen nie. Pringle Sunsets het ongelukkig 'n algemene gevoel van verwaarlosing en was nie 100% skoon nie. Die agtertuin is heeltemal onversorg met gras wat kniehoogte groei. Daar is heelwat goed wat aandag kort: Die ketel se deksel maak nie meer oop nie, die skottelgoedwasser werk nie, die bad in die hoofslaapkamer neem so lank om uit te tap dat daar nie 2 mense na mekaar kan bad nie. Daar is geen water in die kombuis wanneer die onderste stort gebruik word nie. Die wit handdoeke is vol roesmerke, daar is geen gesigshanddoeke nie, daar was nie voldoende toiletpapier vir 6 mense vir 3 dae nie. Die hoofslaapkamer het vele ligte sonder gloeilampe. Die eetgerei en glase was nie skoon nie. Die koskas was vuil en baie deurmekaar. Die huis het 2 badkamers en nie 3 soos geadverteer nie. Die 2de badkamer se wasbak is gekraak met los krane in die bad en geroeste deurhandvatsels. Die Kolkol kort 'n bedekking om die water skoon te hou. Al ons gaste het gevoel dat die huis nie op 'n goeie standaard, soos geadverteer, is nie. Ons het die fantastiese groot binnebraai geniet en heerlik gekuier om die lieflike groot tafel!

Sorry to hear that you were unhappy at Pringle Sunsets. We do our best to keep the place clean and tidy as we are 2 people who clean and sanitize everything. We have made doubly sure that the place is clean and tidy for you - there are items such as outdoor cushions, a shrub iron, extra lights (in case of loadshedding) and spices stored for guest use. The back garden is a plus that I offered you extra for the weekend as it is not advertised on the web. The back yard is part of the wetland and we have no control over nature, as you could clearly see the difference in front and back yard, and as I explained when I took you through the house. The grass is cut once every 3 weeks and was definitely not knee height as indicated in the review. The dishwasher is 100% working and I use it on a daily basis for glass and cutlery. I could see that it had been used over the weekend because all the tablets I left had been used and the machine was running when I got there after you left. There are instructions on the machine. Pringle Sunsets is a self-catering unit and so you will need to purchase the consumables. I do leave 3 toilet rolls, body wash, shampoo, bubble bath, dishwashing liquid and tablets for the dishwasher. I did bring towels over the weekend when you asked for them to make it easier for you. I usually leave 2 towels per room as indicated on the sheet. We had water damage in the master bedroom so there is 1 light out on the chandelier, but it does not affect the lighting and we have put an extra bedside lamp in the room for your convenience. I understand that the water pressure may be affected if the shower is also used, as it would be in any other house, but there is definitely water. The sink in the main bedroom is also in 100% working condition, there are no cracks that would affect the use of the sink or the safety of guests. The bath in the main bedroom is massive and takes a lot of water to fill, and therefore takes a little longer than a normal bath to empty. I am also not sure what the rusty handle or loose taps are referring to. My place is advertised as a “rustic home” and a self-catering unit and not a 5 star hotel.

Jammer om te hoor dat jy ongelukkig was by Pringle Sunsets. Ons doen ons bes om die plek skoon en netjies te hou aangesien ons 2 mense is wat alles skoongemaak en ge-sanitise het. Ons het dubbel seker gemaak dat die plek skoon en netjies is vir julle - daar word wel items soos buitekussings, 'n struikyster, ekstra ligte (in die geval van loadshedding) en speserye gestoor vir gaste se gebruik. Die agtertuin is 'n plus wat ek ekstra aangebied het vir julle vir die naweek aangesien dit nie op die web geadverteer word nie. Die agterplaas is deel van die vleiland en ons het nie beheer oor die natuur nie, soos julle duidelik die verskil in voor- en agterplaas kon sien, en soos ek verduidelik het toe ek julle deur die huis gevat het. Die gras word een keer elke 3 weke gesny en was definitief nie kniehoogte soos op die resensie aangedui nie. Die skottelgoedwasser is 100% werkende en ek gebruik dit op 'n daaglikse basis vir glas en eetgerei. Ek kon sien dat dit gebruik was deur die loop van die naweek, omdat al die tablette wat ek gelos het, gebruik was en die masjien het gehardloop toe ek daar aankom nadat julle vertrek het. Daar is instruksies op die masjien geplak. Pringle Sunsets is 'n selfsorg eenheid en dus moet julle die verbruikersgoedere aanskaf. Ek los wel 3 toiletrolle, body wash, shampoo, bubble bath, skottelgoedopwasmiddel en tablette vir die skottelgoedwasser. Ek het deur die loop van die naweek handdoeke gebring toe julle gevra het daarvoor om dit vir julle te vergemaklik. Ek los gewoonlik 2 handdoeke per kamer soos aangedui op die blad. Ons het waterskade gekry in die hoofslaapkamer en dus is daar 1 liggie dood op die kandelaar, maar dit beïnvloed nie die beligting nie en ons het 'n ekstra bedlampie in die kamer gesit vir julle gerief. Ek verstaan dat die waterdruk geaffekteer kan word indien die stort ook gebruik word, soos dit sal doen in enige ander huis, maar daar is beslis water. Die wasbak in die hoofslaapkamer is ook in 100% werkende toestand, daar is geen krake wat die gebruik van die wasbak of die veiligheid van gaste sal affekteer nie. Die bad in die hoofslaapkamer is massief en vat baie water om vol te tap, en dus vat dit 'n bietjie langer as 'n normale bad om leeg te tap. Ek is ook nie seker waar na die geroeste handvatsel of los krane verwys word nie. My plekkie word geadverteer as 'n “rustic woning” en 'n selfsorg eenheid en nie 'n 5 ster hotel nie.

Dangerous baboons. The area is peaceful and quiet, and it's ideal if you want a close-to-camp setup. It is not very modern, so it's supposed to give you a feel of being away from technology or the busy life. The issues I had were that you can't even open the doors and windows, or else a baboon will come and invade your space, and it was uncomfortable for the times we sat outside. You hear the whistle being blown, which is an alert from baboon watchers. We opened the door just to step out for fresh air, and in a split second, four baboons came inside, threw the food on the carpet, and started going through the food—my daughter was traumatised by this. The information given to you is limited, but there are baboons every day, and they are savage. We ran to a neighbour to help get them out, and luckily they did, but imagine if they hadn't? The place would have been a mess, and I cleaned up before leaving. It's a nice area with scenery, but if you want to be outdoors and enjoy the air, then I don't suggest this place for you. You are constantly on alert for wild baboons. I even have videos of how they ran in the house, and even after putting them out, they still pull on the door handle and car handles. It's crazy.

Very relaxing. We had a very relaxing stay in Pringle Sunsets. The house is large and comfortable. Everything we needed was available. The shops were only a few hundred metres away. There were some baboon droppings in the kolkol, so we ended up not using it.

More home comfort than upmarket, but you can really relax and enjoy your stay! It was our bad luck that it was storming and windy the weekend we stayed at Pringle Sunsets, so we weren't able to use the hot tub or really enjoy the natural beauty of the area. But we were extremely grateful for the gorgeous large fireplace in the lounge, as it kept us toasty warm, despite the cold weather. Kayla was extremely helpful and very quickly came to assist when the kitchen plugs tripped due to the storm. The entire top floor is the kitchen, dining area and lounge and the bedrooms and bathroom are downstairs, which is nice for those who want to get away from the noise upstairs. The couches are very comfy if you are wanting to spend a few hours playing one of the many games available. It's not a fancy spot, more homely and comfortable, but it had everything we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Get out and explore the area, as there is a lot more to see and do than one might expect.

Perfect location, lovely homey house with everything you need. We had a wonderful time at Pringle Sunsets. The house is lovely, the kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need. The inside fireplace/braai was perfect for the windy days, and we enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub on the deck with lovely views of the mountains. The hosts are friendly and extremely helpful. If I could make one suggestion, it would be extra closet/hanging space in the main bedroom.

Madelein, thank you very much for your lovely words and for your very good suggestion for longer-staying guests needing extra hanging space in the main bedroom - we will definitely make it happen! Also, thank you for being so friendly and easy-going. Enjoy 2024 and stay safe. Warm regards, Kate & Don

Madelein, baie dankie vir jou mooi woorde en vir jou baie goeie voorstel vir gaste wat langer bly wat ekstra hangplek in die hoofslaapkamer benodig - ons sal dit beslis laat gebeur! Dankie ook dat jy so vriendelik en gemaklik is. Geniet 2024 en bly veilig. Hartlike groete, Kate & Don

Amazing owner/host, beautiful place. The perfect getaway spot. Considering the heavy rain and hectic winds, we had the most amazing time by the fire, in the hot tub, and playing board games. We felt spoiled by Kate and Don, who made sure we were fine and had everything we needed. They are the most amazing hosts! The house has everything you need for a holiday. Honestly, the photos don't do it justice. You have to see and experience this place in person. Everything was clean and tidy, and all our needs were met. When the sun came out, we had an even better time. It's truly a lovely town and an amazing house. The locals around Pringle Bay are very friendly! The local shops are awesome, and the pubs and restaurants are really nice!
