West of Scotland Holiday suggestions

[Frosticles]

Family Frost Holiday 2012 looks like being the West of Scotland. Any good suggestions from you lot as to where to go? Interests to include swimming, Mountain Biking, Beaches, loch's, Great scenery, blah, blah.
Was looking at Argyllshire as I have always wanted to do the west Scotland railway from Oban to Fort William. Looking to go August time.

Some of the best scenery will be fort William to mallaig road , you won't find better . White sandy beaches like the gulf coast . Oban , Kyle of Sutherland have good mountain biking . Bring the skin so soft with you , lol for the midgie .

You can't really go wrong with oban ( that's where I live ), up to fort William and up to inverness. Some really places to see and the roads good too.
