In June and July, on a clear night, the northern horizon always has some brightness in Scotland, as even after sunset, the sun is not very far below the horizon. The sun sets at about 10:30pm around the solstice and it can be as late as 11pm when it gets dark, but because of the light from the northern horizon it is not as dark as it would be in other times of year. The sun would be rising at about 4am. If it is cloudy, then it would be darker. It is hard to give an accurate description of the level of darkness.

Does the night get dark enough to observe the brightest stars in southern Scotland during the middle of June?
Probably so, although that would also depend on where you are; if you're near a city, the ambient light may be too bright. And the night sky won't be entirely dark, anyway; it's twilight all night long at those latitudes. But really bright stars can stand out even under those conditions. This question is really about the technical details of twilight. Taking the latitude of southern Scotland as about 55.5 degrees north and doing the usual arithmetic, the answer is "yes". The conditions should make the brightest stars visible, at some time during the night.
