Tain Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Platform 1864, Tain in Scotland.

A typical town in the Highlands, Tain is a great place to wander around taking in the atmosphere.

We visited the museum which has many examples of Tain silverware and a great insight into local history.

Here's a shot of Platform 1864, a cafe at the railway station. We spent time here relaxing over lunch. There's a very good menu and the owner has made a great job in the styling of the interior.
