The album, which topped the UK chart on its release last November, has won the 'fastest-selling debut album by a UK female' and 'the best first-week sales of a UK debut album' accolades.
Boyle, 49, has also been named the 'oldest person to reach number one with a debut album'.
The singer, from West Lothian, Scotland, said that the titles were "a real honour", adding: "I used to read this book as a wee girl. I never dreamt that one day I would actually appear in the Guinness Book Of Records.
"I only ever wanted to sing and perform. This is truly fantastic."
