Just go to Shetland instead. They speak with much the same weird sing songy accent, but if you listen very carefully you can just make out that it is English they're speaking.

Have you read Trawler by Redmond OHanlon?
One of the Sheltie trawler men accidentally knocks an i comer copper out cold (copper doesn’t know to leave Trawlermen alone when they’ve been drinking after a long trip). Sheltie discovers Peterhead prison is fucking luxury compared to working the boats.

Peterhead prison is at least on the mainland. Shetland is a fine place for a trip, but a desolate place to live.
This is why there is such a big smack problem there relative to the tiny population. They send up scouse mules on the ferry.
