A Perfect Close to the Day

Oscar, King of Montsegur

Oscar, called the King of Montsegur, is just one of the inviting hosts at L'Oustal inn.

Michael Carr
After a tiring day climbing Mount Pog, dine and sleep at one of the local inns. L'Oustal is a charming maison d'hote (bed and breakfast). Its hosts are endlessly friendly. Among their pets is the charismatic French bulldog, Oscar, which they call the "King of Montsegur." He loves to sit on his warm bed in front of the large fireplace in L'Oustal's lovely dining room. He watches over everyone as the hosts serve up a multi-course and delicious dinner.
