Description:
Your hosts would like to warmly welcome you to Lupus Den Country House situated midway between Addo and Kirkwood in the fertile, malaria-free, Sundays River Valley.
The working citrus and cattle farm is approximately 45 minutes from Port Elizabeth and 25 minutes from the Addo Elephant National Park.
Priscilla and Noel, offer elegant accommodation in their gracious homestead, surrounded by lush orange groves. After a day's game viewing, you are invited to relax in their tranquil garden or have a refreshing dip in the pool.
You may prefer to take a stroll through the citrus orchards or sip sundowners on the vine-covered patio before sitting down to enjoy dinner by candlelight.
We have comfortable accommodation in 3, tastefully furnished, en suite air-conditioned rooms with ceiling fans, facilities for tea/coffee and hair dryers.
Room 1:
Double room with double bed. En suite bathroom with bath and shower. Garden entrance and private patio.

We serve light lunches and a 3-course candlelit dinner in the evening.
Guests may relax in a private lounge where they can enjoy the cosy warmth of a log fire on a winter's night. Swim, or simply cool off after a hot day, in the pool.
Spend time bird-watching in our tree-filled garden searching for the Blackheaded Oriole, (depicted in our logo) whose melodious call can be heard more often than it can be seen flitting from one tall tree to another.
DSTV available in our spacious livingroom.
Sip sundowners on our vine-covered patio or in our private guest lounge.
