01 Feb LOVEly Ideas for Couples in SWVA
With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we’re putting together a list of LOVEly ideas for couples this year. Rather you are looking forward to a fun mini-cation or a relaxing retreat, Southwest Virginia just might be the perfect destination for you! Make plans to treat yourself and your significant other to an unforgettable experience.
Places to Stay
Cozy Cabin for Two
Enjoy some alone time with your significant other in a cozy cabin tucked away in the Southwest Virginia Mountains. Take some time to reflect and relax with peace and quiet. Enjoy a bottle of SWVA wine and prepare a nice meal to enjoy by the fire. Cabins are a great way to spend intimate time together, while not worrying about everyday distractions. Cabins can be offered from primitive bare bones to over the top luxury experiences.
Spa’s / Resorts

If you’re looking for a more inclusive set of things to do, consider a spa or resort. Enjoy a relaxing mini-cation complete with massages, fine dining, and room service. Indulge yourselves in a luxurious getaway to remember for years to come. Many spas and resorts offer package deals to make your decision making even easier. Be sure to check with your chosen location in advance for special offers and discounts.
Bed & Breakfasts
B&B’s are great for those who want a little more inclusion than a cabin offers, but more privacy than that of a spa or resort. B&B’s typically put you closer to downtown action to enjoy a day of shopping, or an evening out on the town.
Things to Do
