Plans for £43m Flamingo Land resort dividing local community

The project features hotels, lodges, a monorail and even a waterpark - but not everyone is backing the plans.

It’s the development dividing a community.

A proposal to build a £43m Flamingo Land resort, featuring hotels, lodges, a monorail and even a waterpark, close to the banks of Loch Lomond have been lodged.

The Scottish Government has now granted planning permission “in principle”, overturning the national park’s decision to reject the plans.

It’s a major milestone for those backing the project, but for campaigners who’ve spent years fighting it, it’s a huge blow.
