    Pam is the consummate hostess! She couldn’t do enough for us and it was dearly appreciated. What an elegant home she has with the most appealing grounds. The breakfast was top notch. This reservation was at the upper end of the price scale for our 3 week tour of Ireland but was well worth the price. Hope to see you again, Pam!🇮🇪🍺

    The Knockeven House was build in 1840 -if I got Pam right- and you can feel that there must be a lot of storys to tell. Sadly our stay was just for one night, so we had no chance to ask for some them. It is kind of like sleeping in a museum. If you are into this, you will love it. Its located right outside the city-centre. 5min by car. Breakfast was great, all you want from cereal with fruit and yoghurt to the full irish breakfast. Pam is gorgeous. You need your breakfast x:xx oclock sharp? Pam got you. You want a dinner-reservation? There you go!

    There is not to dislike and everything to like.

    What an absolutely fantastic place to stay! We had an excellent room with a very comfortable bed in lovely Knockeven House. it is a short walk into see Cobh’s attractions or drive down to the waterfront to take advantage of the numerous free parking places. The Titanic Experience is well worth it too. From Knockeven, you can easily get to Kinsale and even better take the regular, short trip into Cork by train. Cheaper and easier than parking in Cork. And Pam the host is absolutely wonderful. Pam gave us a great welcome, beautiful breakfasts and lots of very useful information about restaurants for dinner. Pam is the best host we have ever encountered. Thank you Pam for such a great stay.

    We received a lovely, warm welcome from Pam. She is extremely helpful and kind natured. The location was perfect to explore Cobh. The house is beautiful, exceptionally clean and very comfortable. The cooked breakfast was really impressive, with high quality produce and Pam made sure we wanted for nothing each morning. I would highly recommend a visit and will definitely stay again when I next venture to Cobh.
