Hi Nyayo
Spent a week on the banks of Lock Awe about 8 years ago, some fantastic paddling we visited a couple of small islands in the loch that might be good for a few nights out, cant remember any names now though.
Also good fishing.
Beware though the water is very, very cold once you get away from the shallows so make sure you wear your buoyancy aid.
For something a little different visit the local hydro electric plant I found it interesting, not so the wife and kids.
Have a good trip and enjoy New Year.
