It's what they have below ground that makes the difference. Dry cold is much easier, even when at a few degrees lower than a plant is technically ok with. Wet feet is a killer for many plants.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
If they look pretty dead, they possibly are. @wild edges grows a lot of succulents, so may be able to advise. A photo or two will help too
This reminded me that I didn't do anything with my delosperma this winter. It's been sitting outside getting cold and wet. Very cold and very wet actually. I just went and checked on it and it's actually doing better than it normally does when it's kept dry and under cover. I've no idea how plants like that survived the cold snap when others that were in the greenhouse didn't
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

..and sometimes plants just don't follow the instructions either
Perhaps the g'house ones are just a bit softer too, and it's just dropped enough in temp to be a straw and the camel's back ....
