I have just acquired another Fiat so I am back
I can recommend a company called DDS who are located in Hinchingbrook Business Park near Huntingdon. I went to their premises but they also sell directly from their website.
I got a Vistron hard drive and two white dome cameras. If you visit them they have a lot of options set up and will show you what is available. They are very professional and the customer service was excellent. The wiring on one of the cameras developed a fault and they posted out a replacement first class without waiting for me to return the faulty one.
I live in a semi, in a cul de sac so one camera covers my driveway between my house and the bungalow next door and the other one covers the front of my house and the width of the entrance to the cul de sac, so I only really needed the two cameras as the back of the house borders other peoples gardens.
I was advised to get dome cameras rather than the bullet type as they cannot be lassoed off the wall.
The pictures attached are iPhone screen shots showing night vision mode. Total cost was £297.60. That included two extension bases to accommodate plugs and cabling. I bought mid range cameras, there was a slightly clearer option that was more expensive but I felt that this was adequate for my needs. I also bought one of these:

as the harddrive is not located anywhere near my router and it needs a connection for the mobile app.
I have it set up on one TV, my iPad and two iPhones the system can also be set up on a Windows computer but we only have Macs and its not compatible.
I hate seeing cables all over the outside of the house so we just drilled right through the wall and screwed the camera over the drilled hole. The cables come into the house and are hidden under the bedroom carpet between the underlay and gripper.
The hard drive can take 2 more cameras if needed. Make sure to check the cameras distance capability as some of the cheaper ones have a really short range and terrible night vision. Mine have 25m range.
