Very good first impression and there were plenty of general household provisions including some food items. The premises were very clean too. There are lots of indoor and outdoor games and the pool is lovely and clean. Excellent.

The Tobacco Barn is a fantastic villa to enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside, while being close to the lovely village of Monpazier, and within an hour's drive of all the beautiful towns and villages along the Dordogne River valley. A few small glitches which the local agent sorted out for us.

I came back from a very nice holiday with friends at The Tobacco Barn. A nice place in a lovely location. And I have to say organisation top class - probably best yet on any villa rental holiday I’ve been on. I’d book with you again, and I’d stay at this again.
