Delicious.
Very well located and the fireplace is a winner in winter, especially when it rains.

Was very nice. Time was short.
Very nice place. Everyone is friendly. Big developments are going to do a lot of damage to the village, although work is scarce the authorities should try to do it as little as possible.

Hi Johann,
Dankie vir die terugvoering, ons hoop julle het lekker gebly en dat jul weer eendag sal terugkeer na Paternoster. Ons sal beslis aandag gee aan die braai.

Good view of the beachfront, luckily not so busy and fireplace kept us nice and cosy during cold, chilly nights.

Raserig. Vreeslike rumoer, vloekery en musiek deur plaaslike mense by opelug mark dwarsdeur Kersgety.

Noisy. Terrible commotion, swearing and music by local people at open air market throughout Christmas tide.
Every night the ruckus continued until late, with bottles being broken and local bigger kids walking around with booze and swearing on stones in front of vinkie. Casserole and bowls in poor condition. No Wi-Fi. Outdoor braai in poor condition, two front bricks broken.

Hi Marietjie en Paul
Baie dankie vir die terugvoering, die Mark voor Die Kom se eenhede is rasering inderdaard en ons het ongelukkig geen beheer hieroor as om Wetstoepassers te skakel indien so 'n probleem opduik. Ons neem kennis van die kastrolle en bakke en sal opneem met die huiseienaar om te vervang. Ons hoop egter dat ons jul weer kan terugverwelkom in die nabye toekoms onder beter omstandighede.

Basic but comfortable accommodation.
The cottage was very cute and the rooms and bathrooms comfortable enough. A mirror in the master bedroom would have helped. The bed was a bit uncomfortably hard. The kitchen was well equipped and the fireplace nice for the cool evenings. Unfortunately it leaks water when it rains. Because it is located close to the main beach and its bathrooms (which are not shown in the photos and are quite an eyesore), it is very busy around the house and there is noise around the house most of the day until late afternoon, especially from the permanent residents of the town and the people who use the bathrooms. The neighbors were very noisy and did not bother at all to the requests of the security to turn down their music at 11 o'clock at night. This despite notices that no noise or loud music may be played.

Thanks for your feedback, Die Kom where Vinkie is situated can be very challenging in terms of noise levels etc. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay although the issues mentioned in your review. We hope that we can welcome you as our guests again in the near future.

House was clean, cooking equipment not the best quality, we had to place bricks in the braai to balance the grid.

Hi Luschka, Thanks for your feedback. We are so sorry to hear about the experience you had with the noise levels etc. Booking a house in Die Kom can be very challenging especially with the locals hanging out at the Market, we however have no control over this but do report it to the Neighbourhood watch and policy if we get complains. We hope we can welcome you back into lovely Paternoster one day under better circumstances.

Ons het baie onveilig gevoel tussen al die bedelaars en kreefverkopers om die huisie.

We felt very unsafe among all the beggars and lobster sellers around the house.
The neighborhood watchmen have been patrolling, as much as they can, but still it is unsafe. There was always someone at the gate or a window who violated our privacy. I would have welcomed more salad bowls and a long mirror in the residence. It was very clean.

Very cofy, beautiful and good value for money.
Very well appointed with everything you need for a weekend away. Stunning view and basically on the beach. But it is right above a public area / Saturday market - so quite noisy with lots of people that need to be watched, given the safet warnings. But otherwise nice and I can recommend it.

It was almost very nice.
The accommodation was good, but the dishwasher did not work, and the oven was dirty inside. It also does not appear from the photos on the website that the "market" is located right in front of the cottage and blocks the sea view. There are also unfortunately unwanted street children who try to sell shells and lobsters at home as they hang around the market. If it wasn't for this, the lack of view wouldn't have mattered, but the lack of privacy was a bit of a problem. The house is conveniently close to the beach and tidy.
