Slate Paving is one of the most popular types of natural stone paving available and is a versatile option which can be used inside and out, in properties both old and new!

Explore some of our favourite slate paving ideas for your garden below…

Stepping Stones & Islands

One of our favourite uses of slate slabs is to create a charming stepping stone or slate island area, which can be placed on top of pebbles to separate the different sections of your space. Pebble additions also look incredibly charming when used as edging to frame the slate around garden areas.

Going Up Or Around

Slate paving is excellent for creating durable, eye-catching steps and pathways in high-traffic areas. It’s also ideal for framing ponds or accentuating unique garden features, adding function and natural beauty to your outdoor space.

Expansive Patio

The excellent thing about slate paving is that no tile is the same, which means you can use it in expansive outdoor spaces without it feeling boring. In this example, the patio is packed with bold character and charm but still sits nicely alongside the contemporary outdoor dining area.

Dream Courtyard

Slate makes the perfect setting for a private, sheltered retreat, away from the wind and public view. With thoughtful design, a courtyard can transform even a small space into a calm, stylish, and functional area, offering room for seating or heating.

Modern Outdoor Dining

Warm tones instantly create an inviting, welcoming space to relax and unwind in with a drink. Large grey slate paired with white concrete delivers a clean-cut, contemporary outdoor alfresco area setting. Using large tiles in a small space also helps make it feel cosy.

Indoor, Outdoor Living

If you have large doors that open all the way in your kitchen, or any room that leads out to your garden, you can use slate tiles in both your home and your patio to give the impression that it is one large space. This style is incredibly modern and refreshing.

Bring The Outdoors, In

Using slate as interior tiles will bring the organic feel of the outdoors into your home whilst offering a luxury and high-end appeal to any room!

Pair your slate paving with either a matching or complementary colour of slate wall cladding to add an extra layer of interest to your design!
