I spent a few outstanding days at An Teach Illanmore. The house is exactly as described, if not better. The proximity of the shop (1 minute drive) and the lighthouse/tavern (10 minute drive) made a secluded and private place feel very connected. The beach and views are inspiring and the neighboring sheep and horses made for great company :). My family's ancestral home and land were just 5 minutes away and though I did not try to bother them, the locals offered and helped me make many faimly tree connections....such a surprising bonus!
