I think you pretty much covered it in your question. Granite has a grip, it is extremely hardwearing. it will stain however if you don't seal it. the stains tend to wash/bleach out over time though. my opinion is that it being a natural product the slight variations that will occur between each stone are exactly what makes it nice. Ceramic tiles may be the better option to provide the uniformity you require. there are more and more of these being brought to the market and they are extremely popular. the finishes vary and non slip ones are out there. the great asset is that they can be cleaned very easily. Couple that with the ease of grouting/pointing (you will be able to use a wet grouting mix and clean off as you go) it makes for a very practical solution. they will need to be laid on a concrete screed for best results which is an added cost.

Power wash to remove any debris or growth, perhaps use a concrete stain to colour them, use a separator, such as grass, treated wood or pebbles to create a pattern and re-lay the slabs. Use the edging to create a raised flower bed along the back or sides, and you might think about some adding a few sections of trellis to bring some vertical height to the walls and break-up the walls. An evergreen type of climber would provide colour and fullness both summer and winter. A few shaped pyramid junipers might do that as well, but they do attract mosquitos.

Hi looks like a wenge 50mm square edged worktop that wilsonart used to make, unfortunately thats been discontinued, except wren's version is 80mm thick. if you want square edged and the extra thickness i think you'll have to get it made for you by a laminate fabricator/worktop supplier. this isn't as expensive as it sounds and they'd have a massive choice of colours from all the worktop manufacturers available and they can make it to your specification, you'll have to do a search for your nearest worktop supplier (ignore all the howdens and sheds etc). still can't see why wren wouldn't sell you the worktop though, might be worthwhile trying a different showroom, sounds like the salesperson couldn't be bothered.

I think it depends on your property and what goes best with the house. You will have more joints for weeds to come through and for pointing to deteriorate with cobbles, so that's a consideration. The cobbles are smaller and harder to walk on, whereas the sandstone gives larger flatter areas. Sandstone has it's own problems depending on which type you go for, and, there are quite a few. You can get honed sandstone, which is flatter than the non-honed, providing you with better joints. We have Indian Sandstone ( unhoned ), looks great but the pointing is a mare due to the uneven nature of the stone, but looking at the fossils in it and the different colours is great. Nothing will stop the algae though, so you will need to jet wash.................ours has been treated withe everything you can throw at it and it still has to be done at least twice a year. I don't think it's just us, as, our next door neighbour also has sandstone, a different type to us, but they jet wash as much as we do.
