John Rhys-Davies, the actor who plays Gimli and voices Treebeard, is Welsh, but he plays Gimli with a Scots accent. Most of his roles he plays in English RP. These days Scots seems to be the go-to accent for all sorts of non-Scottish characters. F'rinstance, most of the adult characters in the "How to Train Your Dragon" series of films are played with Scots accents, although they're supposed to be Vikings. Craig Ferguson voices one of them, so at least there is one Scot in the cast.

Gollum was a hobbit. This is stated explicitly in The Two Towers when Frodo said “You weren’t different from a hobbit once were you, Sméagol” That’s why Gollum is the exact same height as Frodo and Sam And you can see in the flashbacks the way they’re dressed, the style of life and most blatantly, the hairy feet. The elves wouldn’t be dressed or behave like country bumpkins. Clearly Hobbits.
