What visitors say
Brill for pre-teens. I took mine with a friend of theirs' as a treat for being great young carers and they had 4 splendid hours of going on all the rides multiple times till they stomachs couldn't take it anymore 😆 it's safe enough to let them roam on their own and the food that's available is lovely. Authentic greek gyros wrap on flick! Waffles on a stick and ice cream and Nutella+strawberry cups..ice creams and milkshake, and the arcades are nice. Good atmosphere and lovely vintage rides and aesthetic 🙌🏼 be ready for a soak if you go on the swirly waterslide! 🙈

Had an absolutely wonderful day at M&D’s Theme Park in Scotland! 🎢✨ The park has such a fun and lively atmosphere, and there’s something for everyone to enjoy. The kids’ rides were a real highlight — safe, colourful, and full of excitement. Seeing the little ones laughing and enjoying themselves made the experience even more special. 🎠😊 The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was well organised, which made the day smooth and stress-free. There’s a great mix of rides, so both kids and adults can have a brilliant time together. Overall, it was a fantastic family day out, full of smiles, laughter, and great memories. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Scotland! 🇬🇧🎡

Ooh,, I liked it very much. We were with my infant... She liked it too. Place is for both adults and kids. It was too hot today though. But we still enjoyed playing games, rides and especially Amazonia. A lot of animal to see, very nice place. It was too hot inside for us, but perfect for animals, I guess. Then we took icecreams and sat jear the lake. It was a lovely day. Fun place.

I've been coming here for years with my husband and cousin, mostly for the arcade. There is a great section of machines to play, from plush grabby machines, and a couple of giant crane games, 2p pushers, barbour snip, virtual reality games, like water-skiing, dance move games, football, basketball, punch bag, tower of tickets etc. Plenty to keep you entertained for hours. There is also an age restricted arcade and a prize station. M&Ds has had a modern update and you can purchase a card to play machines and put credit on them and also to use to build up your tickets for the prize station (not all machine, you still need coins for some). Bistro in the Loch has a good selection of food from sandwiches, cakes, ice cream, with a breakfast menu with additional seating inside aswell as out and drinking bowls for dogs. There is also a bowling alley (Cosmic bowl) with multiple lanes, snooker and pool tables, a sports bar, the recently renovated Montery Jack's with an excellent food menu, a wee gift shop selling mostly sweets (a bit overpriced), Amazonian for seeing exotic animals and a decent sized funfair with various rides, and Krazy Congo soft play. Also, the props and the decoration of the building inside is impressive with so much thought to detail. The staff here are a great bunch of people from the machine maintenance guys, the security guy and especially the manageress, Karen. She's a lovely gal who you see power walking around the building adding glam and beauty to the neon and flashy lights of the arcade. She's always there for a chat and a laugh and just great craic. It's always great to see her. Overall, M&Ds is a great day out with a variety of things to do and right next to Strathclyde country park. There are good options for food and drink,parking is free and plentiful too. There are always events going on at different times of the year and the website or app is a good source of information for keeping up to date and checking for opening and closing times as not every facility opens and closes at the same time. https://scotlandsthemepark.com/opening-times/ Strathclyde Country Park, Motherwell, Scotland ML1 3RT
