A good lunch in this well-kept farmhouse. Rich starters (the variety of vegetables was much appreciated), truly excellent first courses (handmade fregula with sausage, mushroom ravioli), decent second courses (a good wild boar stew, while the suckling pig was truly forgettable, a shame). House wine, sweet and bitter in the norm. Worth a second visit.

Dinner with colleagues to eat typical Sardinian food from aperitif to dessert. Very abundant menu, the courses were endless. Friendly, helpful and professional staff. Super value for money. I highly recommend it if you are in the area

We followed the positive reviews on Google. The road from Alghero center is not as convenient as all the roads to the farmhouses. Classic endless Sardinian farm menu, it was exaggerated and often not typical. Some dishes could have been avoided. Maybe eliminate some non-typical appetizers. Overall kind and a lovely evening!

Very nice place, in Sardinian style. Really excellent typical food, very good house wine. It would take a farm like this for every place you visit to truly taste the flavors of the area. Very well prepared and courteous staff. Definitely a must try!

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.
