- Appointed for 21 years
- Protected through the principal
- No FCA actions
- Active company since 1984
- Accounts filed up to 28 February 2025
Responsible principal firm
Arthur J. Gallagher Insurance Brokers Limited Reference number: 311786 View firm →What does this mean?
- An appointed representative (AR) can carry out regulated financial services, but is not directly authorised by the FCA. A principal firm holds the authorisation and is legally responsible for the AR's conduct.
- Pettycur Bay Holiday Park Limited (FRN 413873) is an AR of Arthur J. Gallagher Insurance Brokers Limited (FRN 311786). When you use Pettycur Bay Holiday Park's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
- Example: if you take financial advice from Pettycur Bay Holiday Park, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
- Before you proceed, confirm contact details match the official FCA register for both firms. Scammers sometimes clone legitimate AR names and FRNs but use fake phone numbers and websites.
This company holds another FCA record
A company can hold several FCA records, covering different parts of its business, and each one carries its own permissions and protection. The reference number you were given decides which record applies to you.
Website, phone number and address
Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.

Turnover and profit
About these figures
- Turnover
- Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
- Profit before tax
- What was left after the year’s costs, before corporation tax. A minus figure is a loss.
- Net assets, or total equity
- Everything the company owns minus everything it owes. A minus figure means it owes more than it owns.
- Total assets and total liabilities
- Everything the company owns, and everything it owes, on the last day of the year. The gap between them is its net assets.
- Cash at bank
- Money in the company’s accounts on the last day of the year.
- Owed within a year, owed after a year
- Debts and bills due in the next twelve months, and those due later.
The figures for the year to 28 February 2025 were read from the printed accounts, because the filing does not tag them in a form that can be read automatically. They were checked against the accounts’ own totals.
These are group figures: the firm and the companies it owns, combined.
Accounts filed at Companies House for company SC088900. Every figure is as filed, apart from total assets and total liabilities, which are added up from filed figures. Nothing is estimated.
