📌 Theme park in Bothwell, North Lanarkshire
★★★★
M&D’s self-claimed title of Scotland’s Theme Park is a bit cheeky – there are other theme parks in Scotland. But it’s definitely the biggest and most popular, occupying a site overlooking Strathclyde Loch near Motherwell, close to Glasgow. An indoor tropical rainforest (Amazonia), crazy golf and other attractions complement 7 roller coasters as well as various smaller rides. Compared to major English, European or North American theme parks it’s tame, but much cheaper and good fun for a day out.
