Beautiful property. Great guide left in the residence for things to do and restaurants/amenities. Loved walking/running to the beach and the lighthouse. Make sure to visit Cindy the hand weaver down the road. Amazing to watch her work and great buy local opportunity from a real artisan. The Wheelie Good Coffee was also "really good"

About the host

Hosted by Anne Cannon

Host profile image
Hi I'm Anne, a wife to my husband Nabil and a mother to two teenaged children living in Donegal Town. I am originally from this area and Cannon Cottage in Saint John's Point is my home house and where I grew up with my family.

Myself and my husband own and run an Italian Restaurant called La Bella Donna, situated in Donegal Town. Working and living in a busy town, makes it difficult for us to get out and enjoy the home house, so we have decided to open it up for other guests to enjoy.

I have lived in London, Dublin and New York City and moved back to Donegal in 2003. As much as I love to travel, there is no more beauty than right here in Donegal. When the sun is shining, there is no better place.

In my spare time, I like to keep fit either at the gym or walking (there's so many wonderful walks here, especially down at Saint Johns Point).

My favourite thing about this cottage and Donegal, are the breathtaking views!
