I have created a set of self signed certs for my master and a slave. Clients can connect to either with the cert installed on the client but I am having trouble getting them to talk to each over TLS.

Strangely I have it working the other way; the slave can bind to the master over TLS but the master cannot bind to the slave. I have TLS_CACERTDIR set correctly with the certs installed in that location (with symlinks being created) but I am still getting the self signed cert error when trying to bind.

Well, it can't find the CA that signed the cert. Have you configured ldap.conf properly for both systems?
I'll note that if the client binding to the master works over TLS, and assuming you are using a modern version of OpenLDAP (read 2.3.27 or later), then you could use syncrepl.
