As new hosts we are trying out 2 guests and 1 to 3 night stays. This is based on wanting guests who would primarily be driving through the area and guessing this would be most of the demand. But actually, we have had multiple inquiries from fathers visiting their children during school break wanting longer than three day stays, at least when we used to have a farmstay listed.
Originally I bought 1 cutlery item per Guest allowed: 2 forks, 2 spoons etc. but my sweetheart John insisted we have 4 of each cutlery item because he doesn't like to have to constantly wash them at our own house...since we misplace ours taking them in our lunch/eating in our car/out on our property during projects/chores etc. To him it was a non-negotiable.
I on the other hand would prefer to stay up on any dishes when I vacation or not, so I have less cutlery/flatware to wash. For the two of us at home I like to have one glass, one mug, one water bottle and so on because I don't end up with a sink full of dishes. With the matching set put aside for guests/get together etc.
Surprisingly my beloved washes as many dishes as I do but...we just have a different style. (I also wash all my pots and pans etc. that I can before I sit down to eat my meal so I can relax after eating...he prefers to eat as soon as the food is ready and wash everything after the meal (no need to keep food warm in oven/pan).
So as I consider this I would vote for unfortunately providing more cutlery based on
a. length of stay you allow
b. # of guests you allow
That's one reason I am hoping single nights with 2 people will book often enough for us ...because I do think the longer they stay and greater the number of guests the more is involved with the exception of at least cleaning unless Hosts allow 'cleaning during stay.'
