(a) stay?

Hi.

Is "stay"(as a noun) countable? E.g.: "I cannot offer you (a?) longer stay."

And what about "visit"? Is it countable in a similar context?

And another question. What's the difference between 'visit' and 'visitation'? (considering them to be nouns).

Thanks in advance.

They must have tightened up on the time limit! We used to have half an hour, provided no one else had posted.
