Grounds for improvement - Moor Park | Artemis Tree Services

Artemis was recently called in to work in the gardens of historic Moor Park Mansion. The Grade 1 listed building is set in over 300 acres of landscaped Hertfordshire parkland. Originally built in the late 17th Century for the Third Earl of Bedford, Moor Park has been extended and developed over the years, opening as a golf club in 1923.

In order to stop further development around the Mansion, Rickmansworth Urban District Council purchased the building and land surrounding it in 1937 and then leased it to the golf club. In 1994 the golf club purchased the freehold from the District Council and the Moor Park Heritage Foundation was set up.

The impressive grounds remain today and Moor Park holds several awards for its golf club. Artemis was tasked with maintaining the shape of almost 20 yew trees within the ground that form a backdrop to the mansion. Trimming the trees to a uniform height with flat tops was precise, skilled work.

Moor Park Golf Club still owns the Mansion and grounds and if you would like to see Artemis’ work in situ, Moor Park’s Arts Society runs guided tours throughout the year led by volunteers. The guided tours must be booked in advance and an incur a small fee.

This time it was to fell and remove a mature sycamore. The team were excellent throughout - from initial enquiries, advice with what was suitable, scheduling of the work, the tree work itself, the disposal of the felled tree and invoicing. Very pleasant, smart, tidy and courteous.

The estimator Billy was great to deal with professional and gave great advice. We required a Laurel and Holly tree to be reduced in height and shaped and several leylandia trees at the back of the garden to be reduced in height and tidied up.A detailed quote was provided within 24 hours. On the day of the scheduled work the crew arrived on time and Tom and Charlie did a fantastic job very courteous and making sure everything was left nice and tidy. I would have no hesitation in contacting them for any future work required this is an extremely well run business.

Not a leaf was left for me to tidy up. Kirstie Harvey in the office is a legend! Cannot recommend this company highly enough.

The estimator came when he said he would, gave us meaningful and thoughtful suggestions. His detailed estimate was produced within hours of his visit. Once we had accepted the estimate we received planned date for the work. On the day the workmen arrived when we were told they would. They were extremely co-operative, helpful and informative. The work procedure without a hitch with everything being competed to a high standard, and all the refuse removed, leaving the garden neat and tidy. We will have Artemis back later in the year to prune the fruit trees.

Just had a tree removed in Ruislip Manor, the guys were done and dusted in just over an hour, I was expecting a mess that I'd have to clean up once they left.

Marcin & Mo arrived bang on time. We discussed the schedule of works supplied with the estimate and agreed what was to be done. They worked well as a team, and had finished 2 of the 3 trees by lunch time. The 3rd was completed and all the rubbish raked up, shredded and removed a few hours later. My neighbours were happy with the work as any overhang into their gardens had been removed. I would thoroughly recommend Artemis and in particular the team that did my work. The quality of the workmanship is well worth the cost.
