Have a look at the package varioref, which takes into account if the ref is
"on the following page", "on the page before" and so on. You can use it
together with prettyref.
This is from my preamble (rapidly translated from german):
% Varioref:
\usepackage{varioref}
\AtBeginDocument{%
\renewcommand\reftextafter{on the \reftextvario{following}{next} page}%
\renewcommand\reftextfaceafter{on the facing page}%
\renewcommand\reftextbefore{on the preceeding page}%
\renewcommand\reftextfacebefore{on the facing page}%
\renewcommand\reftextfaraway[1]{on page~\pageref{#1}}%
\renewcommand\reftextpagerange[2]{on page~\pageref{#1}--\pageref{#2}}%
}
% Prettyref:
% (varioref-command included)
\usepackage{prettyref}
\newrefformat{cha}{Kapitel~\vref{#1}}
\newrefformat{sec}{Abschnitt~\vref{#1}}
\newrefformat{sub}{Abschnitt~\vref{#1}}
\newrefformat{anm}{Anm.~\ref{#1}}
\newrefformat{app}{Anhang~\vref{#1}}
\newrefformat{tab}{Tabelle~\vref{#1}}
\newrefformat{fig}{Abbildung~\vref{#1}}
