Conferencing

Lawson Lodge is the perfect venue to host your next conference or corporate retreat.
Whether entertaining valued clients, hosting a small residential conference, large day conference, board meetings, team building activities, staff training days, Christmas parties, corporate golf days, product launches, team fitness retreats, you name it.

Only 40 minutes drive from Melbourne CBD and 25 minutes from Melbourne Airport, with easy access to the Calder Freeway, a superb location for Corporate Groups. Set on 53 acres of rolling hills and golf fairways, Lawson Lodge is surrounded by stunning bush land and National Park, with amazing views of Mount Macedon. The Macedon Ranges are so close to Melbourne and the airport but with such an amazing bush setting you would think you were hundreds of miles away from the city.

You have guaranteed exclusive use / sole occupancy of this stunning Macedon Ranges property, and unlike other venues we don’t charge you more for this privilege. Exclusive use of the property includes use of the Conference Centre, luxury accommodation in 8 bedrooms, wonderful facilities, and private dining.

We can personally tailor your dining requirements for your conference, with an array of menu options using the finest produce, freshly cooked for all meal breaks: breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, or dinner. Several locations can be utilised for a variety of dining experiences, including pre-dinner canapés served in the gardens, Gourmet BBQ by the Golf Course, Four-course dinner in the Function Room, or even a themed dinner in the Sports Lounge.
