Karen is a friendly host. When I was there, there were a few people in another booking downstairs which I hadn't realised beforehand, so with the guests and Karen's family in mind, there were a few people in and out of the house during my stay. I stayed in the upstairs bedroom (with 3 beds) and found it more tired than the photos show, but as I say Karen herself seemed nice when we did see each other and she was kind enough to lend me a towel for my stay.
