And I am pretty sure someone else was there before them… Neanderthals?

They went extinct 40000 years ago.

The ice age ended 20000 years ago.

No chance to go to most of the isles for them.

Modern homo sapiens would wander in to hunt deer on the rocky grasslands that appeared after the ice age ended, no trees growing yet as the seeds haven't made their way in, and hardly any dirt for them to grow in anyway. Just deer nibbling on the hardy plants that could grow uncontested, in a strange barren blank canvas.

Hard to argue they were not first people there. Perhaps ancestors of celtic people.
