The Gathering at Redbarn Cavehill
A truly unique day of reconnection and renewal.
Nestled between woodland and mountain, this experience invites you to slow down and return to what feels real, with your special people. Begin in our hand-built log cabin, a space to breathe, connect, and ground. Enjoy a wholesome lunch before sinking your hands into clay - a moment to play, create, and let go. Then drift into the warmth of our wild spa, where sauna heat and cold plunge awaken every sense. This is a private experience suitable for 8-14 people and is a popular choice for an alternative hen party, birthday celebration or staff wellness day.
A day to unwind deeply, share meaningful time with others, and feel at home in nature again.

The benefits of sauna
Stepping into a sauna surrounded by trees and fresh mountain air is more than just a moment of calm - it's a full-body reset.
The heat helps relax muscles, ease tension, and improve circulation, while alternating with cold plunges boosts immunity, energises the body, and sharpens the mind. Being immersed in nature amplifies the benefits, reducing stress, improving mood, and helping you feel fully present. At Redbarn Cavehill, every session is a chance to nourish your body and soul in a setting that feels a million miles from the city.

Get in touchWho we are
At Redbarn Cavehill, the sauna is more than warmth - it is a doorway to the elements: fire, earth, water, and air.
Our sauna perfectly complements our clay sessions, inviting you to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with both yourself and nature. Having trained on the first UK Sauna Master Programme, Maeve delved into the sacred Piritus sauna rituals - ancient practices that nurture body, mind, and spirit - and she has brought that knowledge here, combining it with her love of water, the wood-fired sauna, and invigorating cold plunges.
In a world full of screens, our sauna offers a space for digital detox, fostering openness, presence, and quiet connection. Sauna is a long-standing tradition in Ireland, bringing people together, and at Redbarn we are reigniting that tradition - creating a wholesome, welcoming space where health, community, and the simple joy of being fully present can flourish.
