Scottish Carwardine Colony

Scottish Carwardine Colony is a park owned by Carwardine Parks and operated by Virgin Group.

History
The park's development started in 1993, as the Virgin Group signed a deal with Carwardine Parks to open five properties with their name and licenses in Europe, with this being the first. The park opened in 1996 with "Children Coaster", an E&F Miler kiddie coaster, "Carwardine Mines" a Vekoma Mine Train, "Boomerang" a Vekoma Boomerang and a whole lot of other roller coasters and thrill rides.

In 1997, the Carwardome Indoor Waterpark opened.
