About Tain Golf Course

Nestled in the heart of the Royal Burgh of Tain, Tain Golf Club is a hidden gem of the Scottish Highlands, offering an unforgettable golfing experience steeped in history and natural beauty. Designed in 1890 by the legendary Old Tom Morris, this 18-hole links course combines timeless charm with a breathtaking location overlooking the Dornoch Firth.

Tain Golf Club is a celebration of classic links design, where undulating fairways meet rugged heathland and heather-lined vistas. Eight of Morris's original holes remain beautifully preserved, and the course showcases signature challenges, such as the blind approach shot of the iconic 11th hole, "The Alps," and the treacherous par-3 17th, with a river demanding precision and nerve. Each hole offers its own story, ensuring a round of golf here is as engaging as it is scenic.

Beyond the course, visitors can relish the serene Highland atmosphere, with panoramic views of the firth and one of the driest climates in Scotland ensuring ideal playing conditions. Just 40 minutes from Inverness and steps away from the famed Glenmorangie Distillery, Tain Golf Club is perfectly placed for those seeking a true Highland experience. Warm hospitality and a deep connection to golfing heritage await all who visit this exceptional course.
