Review by hotel critic
La Fattoria offers a comfortable stay just a short drive from the heart of Durham, set in a serene rural landscape that appeals to those seeking tranquility without sacrificing convenience. The spacious room in which we stayed featured tasteful décor, a flat-screen TV, and essential tea and coffee facilities. The welcome drink upon arrival added a nice touch, enhancing the warm atmosphere crafted by Max and his team. One of the standout benefits of La Fattoria is the co-located restaurant, which we regrettably couldn't experience during our visit as it was closed on Sundays. Nonetheless, the menu appeared promising, indicating a potential culinary highlight. Free Wi-Fi and ample free parking further add to the value proposition, making this a practical choice for families or travelers looking to explore the area without logistical stress. While not overly luxurious, La Fattoria strikes a commendable balance between cost and comfort, making it a recommended accommodation for anyone visiting Durham.
