No doubt has already been covered before but house 3 doors along from us, has 2 enormous tress that block the sun to all of our gardens.

It is rented so tenants dont have the right to do anything, and Landlord is completely disinterested.. Anything we can do?

"Someone I know" once emptied the contents of a petrol jerry can around the roots of a tree and the tree died. A bag of salt accidentally spilled around the drip line would do the same.

I really wouldn't recommend doing something like this though. It's an offence to damage someone else's property, and in any case some people may like the trees more than you do.

Ask the landlord if you can have it chopped or even trimmed, with you covering the expenses of, course. Other than that, no, there's nothing you can do.
