"Being here was a paradise - your hospitality, nice house, good food !" Anisha Ruf (France)

Welcome

Priscilla and Noel Walton 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 45-60 minutes from Port Elizabeth and 30 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.

Where it all Started

Augustus Walton, who hailed from England`s Lake District, farmed on "Mimosa" in the Paterson district. "Mimosa" is now part of the Addo Elephant Park. One of his 12 children, Mildmay (Noel`s grandfather) purchased the farm "Tregaron" in the Sundays River Valley in 1894. It was subsequently divided between his 3 sons. Noel`s father, Ralph Wolfe Walton chose the name Lupus Den ("the home of the wolf") for his portion. Noel now farms the land together with his elder son, Adrian - the fourth generation to farm on "Lupus Den".
