Yes I did take some widefield photos of the night sky - including M31 - and compared with the sky here (same camera and settings). The results left me unimpressed with the night sky there with the exception of the highlands and Skye. But even there you’re low, next to no altitude compared to what’s possible here.

Polaris is quite handy, though.
