ROMANTIC GETAWAY

Have you been thinking it’s about time that you escape the day to day and find a place where you can relax and reconnect? Well, now is the time and Thomasville is the place! We know all the romantic locations where two can go for drinks, dinner and see the sights.

You’re just in time for cocktails and dinner downtown at Liam’s Lounge and Cheese Shoppe. Walk in for the best little cocktail nook, but make your reservations for dinner. You’ll experience farm to table food, expertly prepared in unexpected combinations. Each drink and each plate is Instagram worthy.

Book your overnight stay at one of our adorable, relaxing Bed & Breakfast Inns such as the Thomasville Bed & Breakfast or South Eden Plantation. All offer a relaxing and reclusive stay, topped off by the best breakfast around. You can also be steps away from Downtown by booking a room at the Courtyard by Marriott.

Make your visit even more memorable by staying overnight on the First Friday of the month. Downtown Thomasville offers First Friday Sip and Shop events starting in March and running through December (excluding July) with shops open late and fun drink specials from 6-10 pm. Then, stroll over to The Ritz Amphitheater at 8pm for a fun concert where you can dance the night away under the stars.

Time to see what makes Thomasville so unique. It won’t take long to see that history is not in the past in this city, it’s still at the forefront of everything going on. A short drive to Pebble Hill Plantation, a 20th century sporting plantation, will tie the past and present together. Take the guided tour or stroll the grounds hand in hand as you discover some hidden hideaways.

Breakfast will be wearing off, so it’s time to treat yourself to lunch downtown. Jonah’s Fish and Grits will hit the spot. They have been featured in several magazines, and once you taste the food, you’ll see why. Reservations aren’t needed, but there may be a short wait.

Seeing as you’re already downtown, take advantage of the beautiful tree-lined streets to browse in and out of the many cute independent shops. Pick up something new for the wardrobe, new for the house, new to read, and maybe something old from an antique store that speaks to your heart. Don’t want to let the day end, then don’t! Cocktails are calling, and there’s a few great places for handcrafted cocktails such as Sweet Grass Dairy. Or try a flight of wines at the Farmer’s Daughter Tasting Room. Saddle up to the bar or get a cozy table for two.

Time to walk off the evening savoring one of the best days you two have had in a long time. Find the perfect spot, then take a selfie to remember the night. Now, head back to your B & B or hotel for some time on the front porch swing or a long soak in the tub. Maybe even both. Find out more about Thomasville’s accommodations here.
