Tain Golf Club is an 18-hole championship-length course spanning 6,404 yards in Ross-Shire, Scottish Highlands, designed by the legendary Old Tom Morris in 1889. Located beside the River Tain with views over the Dornoch Firth, the course combines links and heathland terrain, featuring natural Scottish landscape elements including gorse, heather, burns, and deep rough.

The course's setting complements the nearby internationally renowned Royal Dornoch Golf Club, situated across the Dornoch Firth, making both courses popular with touring golfers. Conveniently accessible from the A9 trunk road and just a five-minute walk from Tain railway station, the club welcomes both visitors and members. The clubhouse features Old Tom's Restaurant, bar, and lounge facilities.
