Is this a replacement for tar? How does it compare in price?

Hi, thanks for the question. The drive surface is resin bonded gravel. It is a tarmac drive surface then they apply resin and the gravel adheres to the resin.

Resin Bound is fully permeable, virtually maintenance and weed free and is long lasting if installed properly by fully trained installers. with all aspects and possible problems addressed before the resin bound aggregate is laid you should not have any problems for many years and with the initial outlay in cost it should be worth that little bit extra. use as we do a very good resin, prime and address problem areas before and you wont have any problems. we offer over 20 different mixes as standard and a bespoke service for that extra special mix. with this in mind you should be able to maintain the look and quality of your drive, path or patio for many years to come with no loss of colour or quality.

Lovely house, lovely front garden! Bit of a shame to have to create a parking space, but I appreciate your preferences. I'm no expert but can only try to encourage you to have as much green and planting area as possible. :) Next door may be a good example of how not to do it.

As someone else has already suggested, i'd opt for a nice gravel laid within a plastic honeycomb grid system to stablise it and keep it uniform. The whole construction should be subbase to avoid the need for planning permission and you can add a stone threshold detail across the width of the entrance from the road to provide an attractive approach and demark the driveway. I think your house is too rustic in appearance to suit tarmac and needs a softer more rural choice of materials to compliment the house, plus you have a large area so planting is crucial to maintain the balance between hard and soft landscaping.

What dining table goes with wooden work-surfaces and wooden floor?

I had this myself recently - I ended up I did go with a wooden table - a vintage one with multiple shades so it would still contrast and not look too much/samey. I also put a jute rug beneath mine and once you dress the top with a runner and a plant/vase etc it looks great. Alternatively white always works and I love concrete but expensive - concrete resin - metal can also be a good option - I wouldn't go with glass - I feel it's dated.
