The Best Gardeners in Upper Cumberworth, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Paul Telfer has been my gardener since summer 2014 and has helped me to completely redesign the front garden and we are now gradually developing the back, whilst also keeping on top of the general maintenance of the garden overall. He has some great ideas. Whilst staying within the remit of what I like and want, he also pushes me to consider new ideas as well. He is very friendly, approachable and professional.

I rate Paul very highly as a gardener. He is friendly, hardworking, passionate and committed to the job. He has done a fantastic job in maintaining my garden, always suggesting helpful ways on which to make improvements and keeping me well informed of everything he has done. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable gardener!

We have used Paul's gardening service a number of years now and we are extremely happy with the work he does. We have a difficult plot to work on and we found it hard to keep control of which is initially why we contacted him. He made an instant impact on the aesthetics of our garden and we then subsequently asked him to redesign a part of it. I was at a loss as to what to do and he came up with ideas and plans which we discussed and then implemented. The garden looks so much more structured now and is interesting to look at. With his wealth of knowledge and expertise we continue to develop the garden, sometimes at our suggestion and sometimes based on his recommendation. He is easy to work with, reliable and trustworthy and I would recommend his services without any hesitation.

I didn't really know what I wanted when I first met Paul but I knew what I didn't want! Paul has worked tirelessly to help me recreate a 'tired' garden and has brought it back to life. He worked with me to help me bring my ideas to life, making really helpful suggestions along the way. He is both reliable, trustworthy and extremely knowledgable and I would't hesitate to recommend him.

Marc and Ben, have been conducting a garden overhaul for me in Almondbury. Initially with lots of pruning and clearance to now putting some structure and fencing in. Hard workers and give an honest assessment of the job.

Brilliant location. Lovely to walk round. Jolly good quality organic plants to buy.

Bought my 1st load of dried wood for a new wood burning stove. Marc was extremely helpful and had loads of great advice for a novice. Would highly recommend. Great value and great, friendly service.

What a fantastic experience from start to finish! Michael listened carefully to my design brief and captured perfectly what I wanted. His advice and knowledge on all things design and planting related was amazing and keeping him involved as project manager for the construction phase was worth every penny. My entire garden was completed ahead of schedule and matched perfectly to the plan. Cannot recommend highly enough!! Thankyou Michael, I have my dream garden!

Our back garden was in desperate need of a makeover. It was tired looking and shabby. I decided it was time for a change and stumbled across Mick and I’m extremely glad I did. The entire process from design to completion has been excellent. To begin with, Mick provided us with several designs. The final design was an amalgamation of our favourite features from each design. He project managed the whole thing and was on site every day overseeing everything. This was so important as it meant we could go about our days without worry. Mick only works with the finest workmen to bring his designs to life and we are completely in love with our garden. Where we rarely ventured out into it before, we haven’t been out of it since it was finished. Mick has also recommended an electrician to install lighting and a gardener to add some planting. We cannot recommend him highly enough and I suggest you contact him as quickly as possible to utilise his talents.

MP have done a wonderful job for us from start to finish. Without Mick's creative input, we would have missed out on so much that is wonderful about the garden and entertaining area that has been created. We used MP's Project Management services as well as initial Design and so much hassle and worry was taken away from us. The project was delivered to time and budget; communication throughout was first class both from MP and the excellent tradespeople that were brought in. We've created a space that is so much more than we could have imagined, at a lower overall cost than we would have achieved without the care, attention and support of MP. If we could give six stars, we would!! Thank you so much. Joanne and Jonathan

MP Landscape & Garden Design did a great Garden make over for us which we were very pleased with. We have had many years enjoying our outdoor living space. Michael and the team listen to your requirements and come up with excellent designs. Doing the project was again faultless and timely. We have engaged the company again to do another project now 10 years down the line. Again Michael has been excellent and knowledgeable in suggesting ideas that will work for us. Looking forward to our new outdoor living space and kitchen. Highly recommend this company.

Shaun worked on a large garden project for us and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The project included a large dig-out, building new sleeper walls, installing decking, laying a porcelain tile patio, building new steps and a path, prepping and laying artificial grass, moving a garden shed, planting and much more. We had a blank canvas to start with and a strong idea of what we wanted to achieve. We were not only looking for a cost effective way to get the job done but also looking someone we could work through our ideas with to create a space that was sleek, modern and great for entertaining. We shopped around and got quotes from several landscapers. Shaun’s quote was the best value and his costs were transparent - he kindly itemised the costs for me as well so I knew it wasn’t just a figure pulled out of thin air like some garden quotes can be. Cost aside, what we really liked about Shaun after first meeting him was his upfront, honest and passionate approach to his work which you can see straight away. Shaun was fantastic to work with from day one. He kept us informed every step of the way and his daily updates meant we were always comfortable and reassured with each stage of the work. He understood our brief and was focused on making sure every detail was to our liking. Shaun clearly isn’t just a landscaper and has a real passion for gardens. His knowledge and experience in garden design and planting was especially helpful in helping us decide on a whole range of details during our project. You can tell that Shaun really believes in the importance of outdoor spaces and we had numerous conversations during the project about layout, storage, heating options, materials, lighting, planting, the list goes on! Shaun isn’t the type to rush through things so he can move onto the next job - His willingness and energy to push to make our space the best it could be was there right upto the final day of work. The finished garden is everything we hoped for and more. It’s a complete transformation of the space that has wowed and shocked our family and friends! It’s hard to explain or convey with photos the feel of the completed space. It has a balance and a continuity of materials, textures and themes that give it a real sense of atmosphere and mood - particularly at dusk. It’s a place that we always want to spend time in and feel very lucky to call our own. Thank you Shaun for all your hard work.

Callum and Kieran delivered exactly what we were wanting in our garden remodel. Both worked with us to come up with practical and aesthetic ideas for our previously rundown garden. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and we’ve never dealt with more polite young men. As well as keeping us informed at every stage of the process, they were always keen to ask how each element of the garden would best suit our needs, whilst remaining realistic in what would both look and work best for our space. 10/10 would recommend to anyone and we couldn’t be happier with our new garden, just in time for Summer!

From the moment I met Shaun it was obvious his passion was garden design. I explained what I would like from my mud pit, weed filled garden and Shaun got to work with a design. He totally took on board what I wanted and came back with a design that ticked all the boxes and the finished garden is a space that we can all enjoy now! The quality, workmanship and attention to detail from Shaun & Calum is outstanding, going over and above to make the space the best it could possibly be for us. Lovely guys and I would highly recommend 10/10 Thank you!

Our garden was badly in need of a makeover. A sloping and uneven lawn, overgrown shrubs, ugly fencing, lack of privacy and impractical patio were some of issues we wanted to address. At our first meeting with Shaun and Callum they took time to really understand our issues and what we wanted to achieve. Unsurprisingly, the design they produced delivered almost exactly what we were looking for and we had no hesitation in engaging them to carry out the work. Sadly, Shaun passed away before the work started and apart from being very upset at his loss we were concerned about the impact this would have on the project. However, Callum calmly reassured us that he and Kieran (his assistant) would be able to complete the work. We decided to go ahead and in just over a month they removed overgrown shrubs, scraped the existing lawn, levelled the ground and laid a new lawn, built a block retaining wall and a raised border edged with sleepers. They also built steps and a sleeper wall and relaid a gravel path. They also moved shrubs around and planted the borders with new trees and shrubs to provide privacy and colour throughout the seasons. During the build we found them to be hardworking, reliable, collaborative, imaginative and personable. They also demostrated their flexibility by allowing our builder to lay our new patio before they had finished their part of the project. We are delighted with our new garden and highly recommend Callum and Kieran for similar garden projects.

Alison has done a great job for us. We moved in to a new home with a expanse of grass from fence to fence and being non-gardeners didn't have a clue what to do. On her first visit we gave Alison a long list of things we like or things we've seen in country gardens and expected she would use a couple of the suggestions, but no, she managed to incorporate every single one! Over the following 12 months Alison has been there to advise on layout, choosing and sourcing the plants and helping with the planting, with the end result being a spectacular garden. In fact, her imaginative layout is almost like having three different gardens depending on where you are sitting.

I’ve just moved to a new house and am very keen to get stuck in with my garden, but was a bit overwhelmed with ideas and not sure what would be best for my space. I had a really useful 90 minute consultation with Alison and now have a much clearer idea of what I’m aiming for. She gave me great recommendations for plants, trees and materials that would work in the space with my limited budget. Thank you Alison!

We asked Alison to help us re-design an area of our long established garden. She was meticulous in her measuring and note taking. A few weeks later we received her idea for our new patio/pergola. We were very excited to see what she had envisioned for us and we were not disappointed. Unfortunately due to ill health we have not been able to bring her vision to reality but hopefully sometime in the near future it will happen. Thank you Alison.

Alison helped with giving us amazing ideas for our garden, along with giving her professional opinions and practical advice on the ideas we already had. We look forward to getting started on our garden with a much clearer vision of what we're doing

Absolutely smashing work, great attention to detail and very polite, well recommended!

Thanks so much to Ben and his wonderful team for my fabulous new decking - from Andrew who went through the initial design to Dave, Cory and Patryk who completed the installation. The workmanship is outstanding. Everyone was so helpful and the lads made a fantastic job of the entire project including dealing with a land drainage issue going back over 20 years to when the house was first built! A nicer, more professional bunch of people you couldn’t hope to meet. Highly recommended. Would go even further - don’t pick anyone else.

Ben and his team created three great patios on my property. Andrew helped us create the design Cory and Dave are very experienced landscape builders and nothing was to much trouble. They created our vision to perfection. Great quality build, good value and most important professional and courteous. Highly recommend Ben and his team

This is the second time we have used Ben and his boys as we were so pleased with their work previously. On time, professional, knowledgeable and just nice people! Did what they said, when they said and how they said. Very clean workers also which isn’t easy in their business. Can’t wait to start planting! Big thanks to the team.

Ben, Andrew and the 2 Matts were an absolute pleasure to work with. They provided a very friendly and welcoming service to someone with little to no knowledge of landscaping processes. Ours was a small but messy and unkempt garden and it has been transformed by the work Landscape Creations have done. Ben was really flexible offering suggestions of how to reduce the initial quote costs to bring it to within our budget. And Matt x 2 and Andrew were happy to be flexible and make minor adjustments as the project progressed. Really happy with how the garden now looks and the quality of the work will mean it continues to look great for years to come.

Marek and the team at ANO Landscaping took our heavily overgrown multi-level back garden into a spacious, beautiful one in over 4 weeks and in adverse weather. It is now ripe for me to add my own planting scheme. Right from Marek's initial site visit he impressed me with his approach. He listened to my ideas and provided advice together with further design ideas, verbally and via several 3D drawings. The specialist tree surgeon and the team were equally as impressive, skilled, polite, friendly, communicating well with us as the project progressed. I love it all but especially the stone retaining wall and the attention to detail on the patio, wood store and decking areas. I fully recommend Marek and the team!

We booked ANO Landscaping for overhaul and repair/replacement of our entire rear boundary fencing all while retaining the neighbours garden with sleepers. Marek and his team are very good at what they do, fast quote, good price, and great results. The team got the job done ahead of schedule and went out of their way to tidy up after themselves, keep us,and our neighbours happy. HAPPY CUSTOMER.

What a fantastic team Marek has. We needed some decking taken out and replacing with flagstones. Marek had come highly recommended for a friend whose garden they had done almost from scratch. 3 quotes but Marek was the only one to discuss the damp proof course and water drainage. He was the only one to give a fully laid out written quote. The team worked tirelessly on our garden for a week. They were clean efficient and stickers for detail, but always consulted before carrying out the work. We just can’t recommend Marek and the team highly enough. Other alleged Landscaping Companies would do well to take a leaf out of Ano Landscaping's book and provide their quality of work at their prices! Many thanks Marek & team

Highly Recommended! We can't thank Marek and team enough for the fantastic job they have done. Having lost our decking/fencing over the winter Marek has completed a total renovation of our deck and fences and given us a secure garden we can finally enjoy again. The entire team take real care and diligence over their work and the end result is absolutely stunning! We were consulted every step of the way and Marek took meticulous care to ensure everything was carried out perfectly, advising us of the best solutions when choices arose and making sure the end result suited our needs perfectly. Thank you so much for all your hard work (even over some of the hottest days of the year the team were going strong!) Again highly recommended!

Lawns looking better than ever, following treatment from Greensleeves. Reliable service and friendly advice. Many thanks.

Thanks James and Sean for the work this morning. Both very knowledgeable and gave me some excellent tips. I know after scarifying it looks a mess but know it will be back to a brilliant lawn pretty soon. Can't believe how much moss/thatch they removed! Thanks Greensleeves X

Greensleeves did a full lawn renovation for me and I killed my grass using the wrong products. Less than 8 weeks later and I now have a picture perfect lawn that has beautiful thick green grass. Honestly could not be happier thank you so much!

We are really pleased with the service that Greensleeves have provided maintaining our lawn over the past three years. The staff are friendly and are always able to assist with any queries. The results speak for themselves: left (before), right (after).
