We Cover Newquay — Cornwall's Hospitality Capital
Newquay is Cornwall's north-coast tourist capital, and the hospitality and holiday-let economy is its commercial heart. We cover the whole TR7 and TR8 catchment regularly from our Praze An Beeble base, scheduling installs and maintenance to suit the seasonal occupancy patterns.
We know the specific challenges of the area. We cover Bank Street and the central pedestrianised shopping streets, the headland hotels — Headland Hotel, Atlantic Hotel, Esplanade Hotel — and the seafront B&Bs on the Esplanade and Cliff Road. We support the holiday-let and Airbnb ecosystem across Pentire, Crantock, Porth and the central residential streets, and we spec marine-grade cameras for sites with full Atlantic exposure at Fistral Beach, Towan Beach, Great Western Beach and Watergate Bay. We also secure Newquay Harbour and the working fish-quay.
Our coverage extends to the surrounding villages of Quintrell Downs, St Mawgan, St Columb Minor, St Columb Major, Mawgan Porth, Trevemper, Lane and Indian Queens, which we treat as part of the Newquay catchment, alongside the commercial catchment near Cornwall Airport Newquay.
Whether you're a Pentire holiday let, a Bank Street restaurant, or a Headland-area hotel, we'll quote, fit and certify to the right BS standard for your accommodation type.

Newquay Fire & Security FAQs
Do you cover Crantock, Pentire, Quintrell Downs, Mawgan Porth and the surrounding villages as well as central Newquay?
Yes — we treat Crantock, Pentire, Porth, Quintrell Downs, St Mawgan, St Columb Minor, St Columb Major, Mawgan Porth, Trevemper, Lane and Indian Queens as part of our Newquay catchment. They're all within 10-15 minutes of central Newquay and we visit them regularly.
What fire alarm grade does my Newquay hotel or holiday let need?
It depends on the building type. Hotels and B&Bs (purpose-built sleeping accommodation) typically need a BS 5839-1 grade L2 (Life-protection, partial coverage) system as a minimum; some larger or higher-risk hotels need L1 (whole building). Self-catering holiday lets and HMOs typically need a BS 5839-6 grade D mains-powered, interlinked system. We assess on the survey and certify to the right grade — we explain the difference in plain English so you're not paying for over-spec or under-spec.
You're 45 minutes from Newquay — is that a problem?
For scheduled installs and routine maintenance, no — we book Newquay work in advance and plan the day around it. For emergency call-outs (fire alarm fault, intruder alarm activation), we still respond, but we'll give you an honest 60-75 minute time estimate rather than promising 30 minutes we can't keep. If you want a 30-min-response provider, the right answer is a Newquay-based firm — but most Newquay sites we serve are happy with our scheduled-work approach.
Can you handle salt-air conditions on coastal CCTV at Pentire, Fistral, Watergate Bay and Mawgan Porth?
Yes — Newquay's Atlantic-facing headlands get the worst coastal weather in north Cornwall. We use IP66/IP67-rated, marine-grade housings on all coastal installs as standard, and recommend 6-monthly servicing on coastal sites. The right initial spec saves replacement costs over 5-10 years.
