Gift Giving - Any Time

It doesn’t need to be Christmas to show someone special how much they mean to you. We have some wonderful, local, gift-giving ideas for anyone and any occasion. Feel free to check us out on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pages/Halifax-County-Virginia-Tourism "like" us and give us your suggestions; your ideas may wind up on the website too.

Here is our list:

There are quite a few antique shops in Halifax County, offering everything from antique machinery to antique hair combs and even books.

SoBo Speedway tickets or, better yet, a season pass would make a great gift for that race fan you love. http://www.southbostonspeedway.com/

You could take (or send) a friend, relative, or that someone special on a delightfully cozy getaway at one of our many Bed & Breakfasts. http://www.innvirginia.com/southern-region-virginia.html

Camp Motorsport at VIRginia International Raceway has fun adventures for kids and grownups. http://www.campmotorsport.com

A spa package at Berry Hill Plantation would pamper anyone like royalty. http://www.berryhillresort.com/spa.htm

Know any wine lovers? A SoVa Passport to our 12 area wineries would be perfect. www.sovawinetrail.com

Yes, we have jewelry stores. Nice ones; always a good idea.

Halifax County has a wide variety of dining establishments; gourmet coffee shops, international cuisine, home-cooking, fine dining. A gift card to any one of them would surely be appreciated. Browse restaurants.

Lots of fresh-air activities can be enjoyed at one of our own TWO state parks; Staunton River Battlefield offers fantastic views, hiking and history http://www.stauntonriverbattlefield.org/.
Go hiking, fishing horseback riding or boating at Staunton River State Park on Virginia’s largest lake – Kerr Lake. http://www.dcr.virginia.gov/state_parks/sta.shtml

Theatre tickets and season passes are wonderfully entertaining gifts, available from both The Prizery http://www.prizery.com/
and Halifax County Little Theatre http://www.hclt.org.

Shangrila Guest Ranch is absolutely lovely for horseback riding; bring your own, or they will loan you one. http://shangrilaretreat.us/

Of course, your first stop should be your Visitor Center at 1180 Bill Tuck Hwy, South Boston, VA 24592. We will give you maps, smiles, brochures, popcorn and directions to any place you fancy. Also, our gift shop has lovely, locally-crafted jewelry, beautiful local artwork, Virginia Is For Lovers and Halifax County collectibles, t-shirts, sculptures, pottery, baseball caps; even a SoBo Raceway Champion race car for sale.

Happy giving; we hope to see you soon!
