We bought this cot for our two grandchildren. It has been cleaned and the sheet washed. There are a few minor scratches but overall it is in excellent condition.
We are looking for a house to sit for 4 - 6 months. We are quiet and tidy and would be happy to look after pets and garden

The project has had a set back with the theft of money raised at a pub quizz to help to offset the printing cost.
