Luxury Virginia VIRGINIA, US
Among some of Virginia’s stand-out activities, visitors can tee-off on a top-ranked, mountain- top golf course designed by a renowned architect and situated on its own 12,000-acre private estate. Tucked among the same stunning peaks of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, enchanting treehouses offer luxury accommodation while an on-site observatory provides personal tours of the night’s star-filled skies, far from city lights. Relax into wellness with an indulgent signature
spa treatment, then soak in the mineral waters of the historic Warm Springs Pools in Virginia’s Allegheny Mountains. Soar to new heights and enjoy breathtaking
views of the renowned Shenandoah Valley via a helicopter tour or on board a deluxe hot air balloon. Explore the world of ‘horse whispering’ in
Virginia’s horse and hunt country. The truly unique programme pairs equines with humans to enlighten on topics of leadership, authenticity, clear communication and the impact of body language and energy. Or pair instead with a bird of prey on an Ultimate Falconry Experience, where partnering
with a raptor culminates in the thrill of calling one down to land on an outstretched, gloved arm. Dine on delectable bivalves, pulled and shucked
only moments prior, at a table directly in the water at a local oyster farm reached via a boat ride where the captain and guide will share local knowledge. Sip on award-winning vintages in Wine
Enthusiast’s Wine Region of the Year following a private guided horse-ride through the vines, with remarkable mountain views as the backdrop. Alternatively, kayak through the sparkling waters of Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries to a historic estate and vineyard for a wine-tasting and tour. Discover Thomas Jefferson’s commitment to
creating great Virginia wine while touring his mountain-top former home, Monticello, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, or learn how George Washington crafted some of the very first American whiskey at his Potomac River-front home, Mount Vernon. Stay in a luxurious inn on the gorgeous grounds
of the world’s largest living history museum or relax in a grand hotel by the sea that’s hosted the likes of Elizabeth Taylor and Frank Sinatra.
