The Custodians of Holywell Spring.
Custodians
We moved to Malvern over 20 years ago and quickly developed a fondness for the town we now call home. Managing a successful hotel located at the foot of the Malvern Hills has enabled us to become actively involved with local businesses and the local community.
When we were presented with the opportunity to take on ownership of the Holywell site in 1999, we worked hard to restore the exterior of the building and its upstairs rooms from the very poor condition we found it in. Since then we have been keen to renovate the well and rest room and to get the bottling works room back into working order – restoring the heritage of the spring and its history in Malvern. The restoration work that started in 2008 has been carried out with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Now that the source of the original spring water has been brought back to life we will be making steps to ensure that the heritage of the well is never lost again.
