Located at Somerset, 10 minutes west from the North West city of Burnie, Yaraandoo bears the indigenous name for the Southern Cross constellation.
Situated high on the hill at Somerset overlooking the ocean and Table Cape, it is hard to believe the waves are so far away. The design has captured the vista of the sea and many of the rooms have been sited to capture the best of the views.Features & Amenities
