Can anyone give me some help on which grout colour will look best with my sandstone sett driveway.

It seems i can get a sandy mortar which will be similar to the actual stone colour, or a grey, or a black.

Now i am tempted to go with the black as it could look stunning, but i am struggling to find any pics on the net.

I have seen this beautiful driveway created by a company from liverpool, but the setts laid just haven't been pointed up and so it looks like black pointing. It looks really stunning like this.

In the end they use grey pointing i think. Check out their pics as they have a few:

After doing many hundreds of installations, the kitch ones are those with coloured grout, I would stick to grey.
