1895
Tain
Overlooking the Dornoch Firth, Tain arguably offers one of the best settings imaginable in the Highlands for a round of golf. With the sea on one side and the backdrop of the mountains behind, every day brings a different aspect to this challenging and beautiful course.
Designed in 1890 by Tom Morris, the layout of the holes guarantees an interesting round for beginners or experts. The sheltered location of the course ensures favourable weather conditions for most of the year - winter greens are seldom used at Tain.
In 1998 a new clubhouse was built. Full facilities are accessible for visitors including the purpose built locker room and changing area. There is no better way to end your visit to Tain than relaxing in the clubhouse after your round. The bar and dining area are fitted with large windows to give the best view of the course, especially the 18th green.
Tain is well positioned in the Highlands as a touring base for your visit. Only 35 miles from Inverness, there are numerous other courses close by. The immediate area also boasts a fine selection of accommodation from guest houses to top class hotels.
