For ages, I have been meaning to visit the gallery, I am not overly an art lover, however was very impressed with the collection of art and how the gallery is set up and the facilities are amazing. I honestly can't believe it is free admission, however it is great to see most provide a donation on the way out like we did. It is great to see they change exhibitions on a regular level, so will definitely be back sometime in winter this year. If you are visiting the area or on the Gold Coast and would like a drive less than a hour away - this is a must do activity.

Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre is a wonderfully crafted gallery which is definitely worth a visit. Only 40 minutes drive from Gold Coast, it is a beautiful trip which you drive through sugarcain farms and absolutely gorgeous scenary. As you enter Murwillumbah, Mt Warning stands right in front of you and if the weather is good, the view is stunning.The gallery is well organised and presented. Very interesting collection of art works which many of them are from the local Australian artists. They also have a guided tour so check what time they have that on that day before you visit. Margaret Olley gallary is a highlight of the display and you can easily absorb yourself into it.There is a cafe atttached if you would like a little break. The view from the deck is absolutely stunning and you can sit and admire the view for ages. The food there is a little bit overpriced (a piece of cake was $8.50 and a bowl of chips was $11) but we thought we were paying for the serenity of the place as well as the beautiful view.

We had wanted to visit the gallery ever since we heard the Margaret Olley collection had gone there. We were both delighted and surprised at what we found there!! The local collection is great, the facilities excellent, and the staff most helpful. The gallery is a credit to the local community and the board.

Just loved this gallery - free entry, all Australian art and the recreation of Margaret Olly's home in Sydney is just amazing. We could not take our eyes of it....we just kept walking around looking at it. would love to get my hands on some of those antiques! definitely worth the drive for this gallery. the location is just beautiful looking over the tweed river.

The very successful trans-location of the wonderful Margaret Olley bequest has added the cherry on the top to the already brilliant Tweed Regional Gallery. Situated in glorious natural surroundings which tempt the eyes outwards through the clever vertical and horizontal windows. However the quality and variety of all exhibitions soon bring one's attention back indoors. The Olley section is "gob-smacking" in its vision and achievement! Interstate and international visitors who have visited with me have been rendered speechless, literally!

The Margaret Olley 'wing' is extremely interesting and brilliantly curated. The cafe is reasonable. The location is unbelievable with outstanding views of the hinterland and Mt Warning.

The Tweed Regional Gallery should be top of your list of Must-Sees if you are in the Tweed Valley or holidaying on the Gold Coast nearby. Situated on the outskirts of Murwillumbah with stunning views over the canefields of the Tweed, and the ever-imposing Mt Warning in the background, the gallery boasts some impressive art, not the least of which is the recently added Margaret Olley collection.Wander around the airy displays and top up your culture quotent and follow that up with a snack or coffee on the open deck. Quite amazing really so put it on your list.

A group of us ventured down to Murwillumbah to see the Margaret Olley Centre. Set amongst a beautiful countryside was a lovely contemporary gallery with a marvellous cafe.We were impressed with the recreation of Margaret Olley's Paddington house but surprised by the other works. A lovely portrait series as well as works by Nolan, Drysdale, Dobell, Boyd and others. The Gallery is roomy and free to enter with spectacular views over the Tweed valley. The staff were friendly and it was quite busy on the day we were there. You are allowed to take photos of Margaret Olley's house but none of the other artworks throughout the gallery. Definitely a worth while trip. Don't forget you will need to book the cafe on the week ends as it is so busy.

A interesting building in itself, the gallery is located on a hillside with pleasant views over the valley. The recreation of Margaret Olley's home come workshop with all of her personal effects is excellent with views into the home from windows and doors. The video/interactive screens give extra information on Margaret's life and work.Other gallery exhibits are also worthwhile and the restaurant does excellent coffee.
