Virginia is for Lovers. So if you live in an apartment in Lynchburg, VA, Valentine’s day should be a snap. This Valentine's Day you can show some love for your sweetheart and for the local businesses. The Lynchburg tourism department is promoting several local Valentine's Day packages.
These packages include romantic dinners to private limo rides. There is also the added bonus of supporting the local economy.
"Our state tourism slogan is, ‘Virginia is For Lovers,' but when you get to down and figure out what is available you will find our ‘Lynchburg is for Lovers,'" said Nix, director of Discover Lynchburg.
Lynchburg lovers can enjoy a romantic night stay at several local hotels like the Craddock Terry. Many are offering package deals, and they will set the mood for you.
"You will also get a romantic petal turndown service in the evening, champagne, and a $20 voucher towards our gift shop," said Todd Swindell, hotel director of the Craddock Terry.
Another idea: escape to a local bed and breakfast like Acorn Hill Lodge, where the goal is to make you feel right at home.
"The suites are beautiful, and very comfortable," said Julie Robertson, an officer manager at Acorn Hill Lodge.
The special suites will include chocolate covered strawberries and champagne. Couples can enjoy some rest and relaxation at the Acorn Spa.
"The spa is going to offer a couple's massage for a $100. And, we are going to offer our beautiful king suite for a $175," said Robertson.
There are several Valentine's Day inspired events planned for the next few weeks. One event called Cupids and Cuisine will have a five course meal featuring chocolate.
There is a complete list of the deals at Discover Lynchburg's website.
