I have a well water supply.  It isn't a problem, we drink it too. If the well is deep and properly lined there should be little chance of it being contaminated.  Ours is over 100 meters deep so anything unsavoury from ground level is very well filtered out by the time it travels down 100 meters.

We take drinking water direct from the well, not from the storage tank.

Main thing is have it tested and then filter (if needed) according to the results.

I have had well water supplies at several houses over the years, both in the UK and Spain. None have ever been a problem as far as drinking quality is concerned. I would rather have my own supply and treat it myself if required than drink mains water that I have no idea about.
