The older we get, the more we appreciate spending time with our mamas. While baking holiday pies and doing a little Saturday shopping together definitely helps in the quality time department, nothing quite compares to going on a full-fledged mother-daughter getaway. And since it happens so few-and-far-between, it’s the perfect opportunity to pull out all the stops. Instead of booking the big-box hotel chain located conveniently next to tumbleweeds and fast food joints, choose one of these charming Southern bed-and-breakfasts nestled amongst magnolia trees and cobblestone roads.If you’re both big into antiquing, head over to Round Top for a rustic getaway complete with a famed Antiques Fair. If you’d like to explore the hallowed grounds of Biltmore Estate, stay at a certain South’s Best spot nearby. Dreaming of a waterfront destination? Boy, do we have you covered. Each of these Southern inns have charm, personality, and an interesting story to boot. Read on to find the best B&Bs in the South for mother-daughter trips.
