The dinner in the restaurant was tasty and nicely arranged. The service was beyond disappointing. The rejection was palpable.

Ended up here trying to find a place to eat that was open. Good surprise! Very good food, including nice local options, very reasonable priced and super friendly staff. We enjoyed it and are recommending the goat milk ice cream :-)

Very nice area, friendly service, rarely tasty food. Location is perfect if you have 2-3 days to visit surroundings of national park. The only minus is that there is not a lot to do in the manor itself and rooms are a little bit old. Rooms in the first floor have private terraces which are very nice. I would come back here again.

Château de Foix

The Château de Foix dominates the town of Foix. An important tourist site, it is known as a centre of the Cathars. Built on an older 7th-century fortification, the castle is known from 987. In 1002, it was mentioned in the will of Roger I, Count of Carcassonne, who bequeathed the fortress to his youngest child, Bernard. In effect, the family ruling over the region were installed here which allowed them to control access to the upper Ariège valley and to keep surveillance from this strategic point over the lower land, protected behind impregnable walls.

In 1034, the castle became capital of the County of Foix and played a decisive role in medieval military history. During the two following centuries, the castle was home to Counts with shining personalities who became the soul of the Occitan resistance during the crusade against the Albigensians.
