Where Would You Rather Be? Lakes, Alps, Dales or Peaks – New Slate Sign Collection

If you’re anything like us, you’ll always have one eye on the hills. That’s why we’ve created a new range of “I’d Rather Be In…” slate signs, each featuring a hand-drawn mountain illustration inspired by some of our favourite places to explore.

These rustic slate signs are perfect for hanging in your home, shed, or even your office (if you need a daily reminder of where you’d really like to be). Each design is laser engraved onto natural slate, complete with a jute twine for hanging – simple, stylish, and made to last.

I’d Rather Be In The Lake District

Our Lake District sign features a hand-drawn outline of the Catbells – the perfect piece for anyone who can’t get enough of the Lakes. Whether you love hiking in the Lakes, paddling on Derwentwater, or just stopping at your favourite café after a walk, this sign sums it up.

I’d Rather Be In The Alps

Dreaming of snow-capped peaks and Alpine trails? Our Alps sign brings a little bit of the mountains into your home. With its hand-drawn Mont Blanc massif, this one is for skiers, climbers, hikers, and anyone who loves that crisp mountain air. You can check it out

I’d Rather Be In The Yorkshire Dales

Closer to home for us in Yorkshire, the Dales sign is all about rolling hills, stone walls, and big skies. It’s a lovely gift for anyone who has Yorkshire in their heart, or just loves escaping to the countryside.

I’d Rather Be In The Peak District

With its gritstone edges, open moors, and famous trails, the Peak District has a magic of its own. This sign captures that feeling and makes a brilliant keepsake for walkers, climbers, or anyone who counts down the days until their next Peak District trip.

Designed & Engraved in Our Studio

All of our “I’d Rather Be In…” slate signs are designed and engraved in our Yorkshire studio. The hand-drawn artwork makes each one unique, and the natural slate means no two signs are exactly alike. They’re a little reminder of your happy place, wherever that might be.

So, where would you rather be? 🌿
