The Best Gardeners in Derbyshire, United Kingdom (2025)

We moved in to our new house a few months ago and David has completely transformed our garden! We are so happy with the end results and the service we received from David was amazing throughout. Would highly recommend to anyone!

David did a fantastic job building us a pergola cannot recommend highly enough deserves 10 stars

Me and my partner used David to completely redo our driveway with block paving and we’re beyond happy with the finished result. I couldn’t fault the service we received whatsoever and would recommend David to anyone!

Brilliant! David did a first rate job, had great ideas and was very easy to talk to. I can whole heartedly recommend him - very impressed with all aspects of the work he did for us - Thank you for your hard work.

Dean came to trim an out of control hedge I share with a neighbour, he did such a good job I asked if he could clear my garden of weeds and brambles, wow! Every invader gone, everywhere tidied and at a fair price. Top service.

Dean has bought our garden back to a beautiful state. He’s very knowledgeable and has provided excellent advice on maintenance and improvements. Thoroughly recommended.

Dean has only worked for us for a short period of time but I would certainly recommend him. He works hard with enthusiasm, care and he is also such a tidy worker. He is doing an amazing job and I’m really happy . Thank you Dean

My regular gardener let me down after 3 years. I left messages to various other people to ring me to get a quote, none of them had the courtesy to ring me back. I found Deans number and rang him leaving a message. He promptly rang back and arranged a visit to quote for cutting my hedges. Quote given and accepted he came back two days later to complete the task. Good job done, very tidy work and reasonable, more to the point I think he’s reliable. Will ask for his services next year and would highly recommend him to anyone. At this time of year hope he and his family have a happy Christmas.

John and his brother have worked miracles in our overgrown garden. He came to take a look as I saw him doing a brilliant job on a neighbours garden and asked if he could give us a quote.John suggested work that I hadn't considered but I'm so glad I took a leap of faith. They have worked so hard over two days and have been so precise, they are perfectionists. When they had finished transforming our garden they cleared everything away leaving the garden really tidy. Have been so impressed, have already asked for a quote for further work. Thanks Garden Rangers !

Really happy with the work done, in grim weather too! Every last twig and branch was taken away too leaving the garden looking fab and ready for Spring planting.

John and the team were excellent. We had a change in circumstances that meant changing the quote and work schedule which was all worked through and consulted over. The garden clearance and removal of ivy and weeds left the place looking like a whole new garden. The team went above and beyond, were honest what they could and couldn’t do and even gave some helpful advice on what to do next to maintain it. Definitely use these guys again.

I was very pleased with the work Jonathan and his team did for me. Jonathan responded to my initial query quickly and gave me a very reasonable quote. For the work itself they were slightly delayed but kept me informed. The team were a nice bunch of lads who worked hard all day. I would definitely recommend them based on my experience.

Clare is amazing. She was very thorough in her initial consultation - which meant that she really ‘got’ what we were after. Right from the start I was confident she understood the brief, to the extent we went with her very first proposed design. The work was done professionally throughout by Clare and her team (shout out to Zoe in particular!) and the end product is superb. We are absolutely delighted with our garden and even have a maintenance schedule … so it’ll be our fault if things go south from here! But it’s super-easy to maintain. And reasonably priced for the quality of work.

Clare is very flexible with how much of her services you use. You can have a simple site plan, detailed planting scheme or all this plus hands on and project managing the whole job. Which ever you choose you get first class service at a reasonable price.

We are absolutely delighted with the finished result!! The design took on board our preferences for shape and materials and the planting plan our ideas for coverage and colour We now have a superb maintenance easy garden that is a riot of our favourite colours Clare managed the whole process to our entire satisfaction including dealing with the subcontractors Most importantly the work was done on time and in budget. We would and have recommended all involved in giving us a garden to be proud of to others.

Clare really helped us with our garden design and her beautifully hand drawn pictures brought to life the ideas we had. From her initial meeting where we shared our ideas to her final concept plans, Clare was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. The end product is brilliant and we are really happy with the design and the plants in the raised borders are the perfect colour and height for what we needed. I would highly recommend Clare for garden design and the planting plans.

I can’t speak highly enough of Lee and his team. Lee is a brilliant designer and came up with some really clever ideas for our garden we would never have thought of. He and his team then brought those to life with an impressive 3D animation that meant we could see exactly what the end result would look like. He then guided us through the design process, helping us choose materials and planting schemes that would enable us to stay within budget and still look great. When the time came for the actual work to be done, the team that came to do it were absolutely brilliant - they worked so hard and you could see they took incredible pride in their work and weren’t happy unless it was perfect. Plus they were lovely guys to have around! We kept Lee involved throughout this process and I’m really glad we did...he was on site every week ensuring the garden was being delivered in the way he envisaged and, when little unexpected obstacles arose, he was able again to help come up with smart solutions and advise the landscapers to ensure it all stayed true to the original vision and, crucially, in budget! Big big thanks to Lee and everyone who worked on the project - we are delighted!

Lee and his team were amazing to work with and delivered an incredible garden for us at Chelsea Flower Show. The design fulfilled the brief completely and we loved it so much we brought as much of it as we could back to Covent Garden. I couldn't recommend Bestall & Co. more highly for their aesthetic, professionalism and friendliness in doing a brilliant job.

We commissioned Bestall & Co to design and build the Experience Peak District & Derbyshire Show Garden for RHS Chatsworth 2017 on behalf of Marketing Peak District & Derbyshire. The concept and finished garden completely fit the brief that we gave them; it was a great pleasure to overhear visitors to our garden at RHS Chatsworth discuss how the formal Italianate garden and the open pasture, complete with metallic cows, was a great representation of the formal gardens of the area's stately homes and the beautiful open landscapes of the Peak District and Derbyshire. Bestall & Co were a delight to work with, bringing passion and enthusiasm to the project.

We have had a wonderful experience with Bestalls transforming our garden. From the first visit with Lee, on a snowy February day, to our bleak disjointed gardens that we rarely spent time in, to the amazing evolution of colour and outdoor spaces that we use so much more - most recently to host our daughter’s wedding that we would never have considered previously. We particularly loved the design video bringing to life Lee’s concepts - not quite believing our gardens could look so good ……..and they do - day and night with a smart lighting scheme Lee, Paula, Jamie and the team do all they can to ensure you are happy with all the various phases the process goes through to completion. We chose to use our own builder for the hard landscaping following Lee’s spec and then Bestalls did the rest. The final completed project more than delivered on Lee’s original design - we love watching it change and develop through the seasons using it more than we had ever done before. A great enhancement to our home that certainly has the wow factor for us. Follow up and After Care is thorough and transparent - you know what is to be done, when and the cost plus a report afterwards. We would have no hesitation in recommending this fabulous team and look forward to an ongoing relationship as the garden matures.

You could not wish for a better Company than Pennine Garden and Trees. They arrived promptly and were soon at work sorting my Hedge and trees out with speed, care and efficiency. Kurt who came to see me first to access the job was very polite and gave me a very good quote for the job I wanted doing. Elaine followed up with sorting out dates for the job to be done and even here they pulled out all stops to get me seen quicker. After the job was done Elaine sorted out how to pay and this was sorted with in an hour followed with a receipt and invoice. The Four men who came to do the work three of them all called Lewis ( What chances of that happening) and Alex were really friendly and hard working. Answered all my questions to my satisfaction and left my Hedge and Tree area very clean and tidy. Every individual member of the Pennine Company get a 5 stars from me. So summing up. A very Happy Customer and I recommend this Company to you knowing you will be as pleased as I have been. 😀👍

We had a lot of tree work to do including felling a 10m fir tree at the top of a bank and in a confined area. No problem for these guys. Kurt and his team were at all times prompt, courteous, efficient and as clean and tidy as it's possible to be. Attitude was always 'can do' with never even a hint of 'could be tricky'. The quality of work was excellent and at a very fair price. I'll have absolutely no hesitation in calling again when the need arises and would describe Pennine Garden and Trees as the very definition of a Trusted Trader.

Approx 60ft Leylandii taken down within 2 days. Workers very approachable and professional. Area cleaned up at end of work. Apart from missing tree you would not have known they had been there. Very highly recommended. Defo use them again

Thank you Elaine, Kurt & Alex for another great job in felling the problematic cherry tree. The guys at Pennine Tree Services are brilliant to deal with, always very professional & friendly, highly experienced & knowledgeable. They work swiftly & efficiently and clear everything away when they’ve finished. I can thoroughly recommend their services and if I could rate them with more than 5 stars, I certainly would!

Michael and his team have done a fabulous job on my front garden as well as tidy up the back ready for winter, highly recommend these guys thank you !

I would like to say a big thank you to Mick for a fantastic job well done. Our garden had become overgrown and unmanageable and we needed a kick start to get it back on track. Mick worked very quickly to get the job completed even pestered by a puppy and a 6 year old chatter box whom he engaged to get involved with the garden. I would highly recommend him

Highly recommended! Mick came to do our pre-winter prep in our garden and couldn't be happier. Service with a smile and he worked really hard to make it much more manageable. I even got lesson in plant maintenance - very knowledgeable. It's best if you provide the tea - worth the tea bags😀! Thank you Mick and hope to see you again.

Michael and his team did a fantastic job of sorting out the garden. Communication was excellent and he left the garden clean and tidy of all garden refuse. I recommend him unreservedly.

From a very unfriendly garden that really needed TLC. Craig came and worked tirelessly to make it a manageable place for me to enjoy. Always a smile and advice when needed. Thank you so much.

Craig did our block paving driveway extension. He was very thorough and passionate in getting it right. Will use him again for our garden.

Very professional in both his attitude to work and the job completed. The work completed highlights the experience in the industry. I would recommend CJB Construction to anyone who is wanting any work doing.

Craig gave an honest quote, carried out the work diligently and professionally and went the extra mile to get the product I wanted. Very happy with the results. Thank you
