I'm looking for a location in SW Scotland for a weekend trip at the end of the month. Needs to be by a loch with fishing available, preferably trout, have somewhere for small tents and hammocks, be accessible by car to get a canoe in and be away from hoards of people.
I've had a cursory look at loch ken but it seems busy, some info suggests that loch doon is suitable for all but hammocks although google earth shows the east shores are forested. Have they been felled?
Also need to be able to run a small cooking fire over the weekend.
Any help welcome, particularly GPS co-ords or grid numbers for suitable locations. I don't really know the area at all but would very much like to.
Mark.
