A florist in Helston is celebrating after the business gained accreditation from the Good Florist Guide.

Sweet Pea Floral Studio at Meneage Street was awarded the prestigious accolade regarded by many as the gold standard of floristry and the only merit-based guide to the finest florists in the UK and Republic of Ireland.

Owner Lin Turner said: "We are delighted to be accepted into the Good Florist Guide. We are passionate about flowers, design, quality and the service we give to each of our customers, so it is wonderful to have this recognised."

As part of an in-depth application process, the creative florist was invited to submit a detailed description of the business along with information about the company's range, services, staff members, design work samples and a range of images.

The application was assessed by industry experts to ensure it met the strict criteria of not just offering beautiful designs, but also the best service and value for bespoke floristry and flowers.

Lin added: "What's special about our business is that we specialise in unique designs partnered with outstanding customer service."
