Does anyone know of a UK supplier of sliding attic staircases, similar to these

by Bessler in the US? The key thing is that they are one-piece wooden ladders, rather than the usual sliding or folding type.Sliding attic staircase

Not seen anything similar, they look good, but occupy a fair bit of space ...

Years ago, Slingsby used to make these. In fact, my parents had one. This is going back quite a few years, and I have no idea whether Slingsby even exist any longer?
Well I'll be bu&&ered! I searched for an hour or more but didn't think of using "disappearing" - well done that man. Now all you need to do is find one for half the price ;-)
Actually, it would be useful to know where those spring retracting wire drum things can be bought - anyone know what they're called?
it is not a staircase unless you can come back down frontwards...it is just a fancy lader....

Can you come down a space-saver staircase frontwards ?.
