In short - in the week since starting at Gina's, I've already recommended it to two other groups of people and will likely continue to do so.
The apartment was comfy and big enough for a group of five adults (although I understand there are smaller places for couples) with doors that opened out onto a lovely big back garden. There's also a gate to a field where the dog, Sophie, takes you for walks. We were lucky enough that Masie and Dash, two of the extended family's dogs were also there and incredibly friendly.
This place is that rare Airbnb combo where you have a lot of space to yourself because you aren't living in someone's spare room, but the family are also on-hand with local tips. As soon as we arrived, Gina and her family welcomed us and already had recommendations for things to do including a carol concert that was happening in the local village green.
That same afternoon, while my brothers and I were playing pool and throwing a football around the perfectly manicured lawn, Tony (the other host) came up to us and invited us to go sea fishing with them the following day on his boat. What little experience I had of fishing told me two things. First - my brothers and I would be frustratingly bad in comparison with someone who goes a lot. Second - you need to get on with the people you're going with. They seemed cool so we took the chance and let me tell you - I'm so glad we did.
We got up early to find Tony and his son-in-law, Jack, had already been up for about an hour prepping the boat. They were as practiced as I expected but didn't seem frustrated at all with our inexperience. We spent about six hours on the boat, touring spots they knew were good for fish - often going just a few minutes between pulling in a fresh one. While we caught barracuda, flathead and some small sharks (all responsibly put back if they didn't meet size requirements), Tony and Jack pulled in a steady stream of squid. Conversation was relaxed and interesting, so the time flew by and Tony and Jack put loads of effort into cutting up fresh bait and making sure we didn't tangle our lines. When we got home they cleaned and cut the fish expertly and gave us a huge plate to cook that evening (the squid and flathead went wonderfully with some asparagus and lemon, we also had snow peas they grew in their garden).
This Airbnb is nicely located - you can walk to the shops or the beach if you'd like. There's also a scenic river walk which takes you from here to the Bridport Cafe (another place I'd recommend, my sister and mum loved it). That said, as with most of Tazzie, it's sensible to have a car.
In the local shops we were able to find everything we needed from dinner ingredients to a beanie hat for my brother.
Thank you Gina and family, I hope many more people have the chance to stay with you.
