Actually the stoned area was very easy to train him in - he had his spots for wees and poos! He doesn't go much further afield now when we're just popping down to go to the loo. He did have a habit of trying to eat the stones though.
There is a big dog exercise area opposite, though, which is almost like a garden and he's making existing holes bigger, creating some new ones, and eating anything he can get his mush on! So we too have muddy floors now!
