The Old Laravale School,

77 Christmas Creek Road, Laravale QLD 4285

"Always a treat to go to Old Laravale School. Warm fresh bread on arrival with butter in the fridge and abundant necessities for tea or coffee. Plenty of wood for a fire and the rooms are always beautifully made up,with plenty of covers for warmth and fresh fluffy towels, with bath gel and shampoo in shower if you have forgotten yours! Kitchen has everything you could possibly need. Decor always colourful which adds to ambience. The school has plenty of space for machines as well as carefully placed electric switches for sewing machines ironing boards and irons ready to use, plus 3 cutting tables. A board on the wall to hang quilts up to view is also valuable. Also tea and coffeeis supplied and can be made there on the spot. We as a regular sewing group love it and always come away satisfied with our sewing and association."

"Love this place! Wonderful hospitality and a sewing room that's so spacious it makes sewing with friends such a pleasure. I can thoroughly recommend it. Looking forward to nights by the cosy fire in a couple of weeks time. We keep coming back, it's so good."

"Such a lovely, quiet place - the house and school have such history and the location is very relaxing. Wendy is a great host, such a good eye for decoration and willing to help out where ever she can"

"I am so torn (sorry, bad sewing pun) because if I tell everyone how absolutely fantastic the Old Laravale School is for a craft/scrapbooking/sewing retreat, then the secret is out and we'll have to share it with the whole state! So just ignore me, I have no idea what I'm talking about ... So relaxing, so welcoming, so perfect for a crafty weekend - Thanks Wendy"
