About Us

Found in an area of outstanding natural beauty, Montgomery Water Ltd.  sits beneath a small range of former volcanic hills in the mid-Wales county of Montgomeryshire in the little rural village of Churchstoke.

Our spring and mineral water is infused with a host of essential minerals by virtue of its passage through these ancient rock formations and as such providing the fine taste of the water we abstract.

Although the catchment area is wide-reaching, the company has ownership of the critical areas of land around the customer dedicated sources to ensure the total protection to our water, our community and our consumers who enjoy it!
