About Virginia

Perched between the Atlantic Coast and the Appalachian Mountains, Virginia has been at the heart of the USA’s story since the earliest days of European settlement. Birthplace of eight US presidents, this is an endlessly intriguing destination for history buffs and keen cultural explorers, as well as outdoorsy travellers. The tremendous choice of accommodation options includes everything from heritage B&Bs to expansive resorts, fit for a whole host of tastes and budgets. Many of the best places to stay in Virginia are in the state’s lovely towns and cities, but we do have a selection of rural hideaways for those looking to get away from it all, romantic boltholes and some superb vineyard escapes where you can taste the delicious wines of the region. There are also plenty of pet friendly options for those who can't bear to be separated from their furry friends, and boutique hotels if you're looking for a more unique property.

For a buzzy city break, look to the state capital, Richmond, waterfront Norfolk or swish Alexandria. All are lively hubs with heaps of foodie and cultural attractions. To delve into Virginia’s rich history, travel to Williamsburg, Lynchburg and Charlottesville, where you’ll find charming heritage architecture, museums and a more laid-back feel.

Nature lovers will delight in the state’s immensely varied geography, with its famously beautiful seasonal changes. Go hiking, horse riding, mountain biking and wildlife-spotting in the Blue Ridge Mountains — part of the larger Appalachian Mountain range — or try walking, kayaking and rafting in the gorgeous Shenandoah Valley and the Shenandoah National Park, the Great Falls National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Appalachian National Scenic Trail is a classic, and the landscape is dotted with National Battlefield Parks, memorials and monuments — all best discovered with a knowledgeable guide.

Tipped by experts as one of the most up-and-coming New World wine regions, the state is also brilliant for keen foodies and wine lovers. One of the best places to stay in Virginia is a vineyard, after all!
