Default Sowing cranberry seeds

Rearranging the deep freeze to accept fifteen assorted gamebirds, tied
up in carrier bags until I've time to pluck and draw them, I came across
some big fat cranberries running loose at the bottom.

Capturing them, and using them as sort-of bite-sized ice-lollies, I
ended up with about twenty seeds.

I'd think that cranberry seeds would survive the cold, so, has anyone
got any pointers for planting them? I'd guess that close to the surface
on damp ericaceous compost should be right, but, outside now, or inside?

If any come up, will they need greenhouse conditions? They are the big,
almost cherry-sized ones from the US.
