BENTS Garden and Home in Glazebury has been presented with the title of Best Destination Garden Centre in the UK.
It is the fifth time Bents has won the award which recognises quality standards within the industry.
The team at Bents were presented with the title by the Garden Centre Association (GCA) following an annual audit which records scores from all member centres.
The award comes at the end a celebratory 12 months for Bents as the family-run business marked its 80th anniversary during 2017.
Matthew Bent, managing director of Bents Garden and Home, said: “There are many awards available within our industry, but this really is the big one.
"It is not one that requires a written submission or paid for entry instead the audit is something that is a requirement of our GCA membership.
“It is based purely on quality standards throughout the centre, not only of our products and departments, but also our people and service, which makes it all the more special to receive again this year.
"We have a great team who work extremely hard and this award is a fantastic way to thank them for their input.”
The award also sees Bents being acknowledged as a Garden Centre of Excellence – one of only ten in the country.
