TROHANNY COTTAGE
a place to breathe

Come as you are —
and breathe a little easier.

Trohanny Cottage is an 1839 listed Historic Houses of Ireland authentic thatched cottage & farmstead in the heart of Ireland's Ancient East, near Kells, County Meath. Trohanny Cottage has lived many lives - once a family home, then a holiday accommodation, & now a space for slowing down. Trohanny Cottage now offers breathwork sessions both indoors & out, giving people the opportunity to experience the healing powers of nature & the chance to reconnect with themselves under our thatched roof.  Nestled in the scenic & peaceful surroundings of old Irish countryside, steeped in history & full of stories, visiting this place is like stepping back in time. Whether you're here for a small group tour of the cottage & its history, a breathwork session, or simply to reconnect, you're invited to breathe deep, move gently, and take in the quiet magic of this place.

Inside the cottage, you'll find a cozy, quiet space for guided breathwork which is ideal for deep rest, nervous system regulation, and personal reflection.


Outdoors with the animals, you’re invited to breathe alongside our gentle horses, donkeys, cats, & dogs, where the open air and intuitive presence of the animals support grounding, connection, and emotional release.


Whether underneath the thatched roof or under the Irish sky, each session is a chance to return to yourself — one breath at a time.

The breath work session I had with Áine was like a piece of Heaven on Earth. I was a little bit apprehensive as I wasn’t sure what to expect but Áine and the welcoming committee quickly put me at ease and made me feel right at home! The beautiful and peaceful country surroundings were just the perfect backdrop. The session itself was relaxing, immersive, electrifying, emotional, meditative - and more! I came away from my session feeling so light, as though I could float through the rest of my day. Áine gave me some fantastic advice on how to bring the work we did together with me into my every day life. I truly believe everyone should experience the wonderful work Áine and her animals are doing. It’s the perfect way to fill your cup.
