About the host
Hosted by Kelli Kendrick
The Canal House & Canal Cottage has sat at the edge of Lough Allen before the 1900's sadly it lay derelict for a number of years before we renovated them both.
Having now restored the property to it's former glory, with a modern twist, it can once again stand proud at the mouth of The Lough.
