“I just wish to thank you for your help in making it possible for me and my mother to go and see The Open at the home of golf. We had a very nice trip – of course we were sad that we missed the final on Monday, but such freak weather incidents will not affect our overall experience. (And we did manage to come home without hearing the result, so we could watch it on TV with the tension intact :-). Best regards”

Tain Golf Club

Situated to the south of Royal Dornoch, Tain is a heathland/links course with spectacular views. Designed originally by Old Tom Morris as a fifteen-hole course in 1890, it was extended to eighteen holes in 1894; eleven Morris holes are still in play today. This is an easy walking course with the river meandering through three of the holes. Always presented in beautiful condition, Tain is a good test of golf, with clever bunkering and natural water hazards. Tain is located 35 miles north of Inverness.
