The above error keeps coming up on the washing machine, and I have no idea currently what it could be – the manual states it’s water related and that there’s not enough water pressure coming through.
I’ve checked the hoses and taps coming into the machine (took them off the back and then turned on the taps to see if they had water going through, and they did) and I’ve made sure none of the external hoses are bent. It drains fine.
I’ve heard some people say that it could be down to a water pressure pump, is this located in the top of the machine and is it easy enough to fix?

You have been talking to the wrong people, no such part in this machine. 🙂
Have you pulled the machine out and tried it in the middle of the floor, that is assuming that whoever plumbed it in had the good sense to do the job correctly to allow you to do this. There is an outside possibilty that your fill hoses may be kinking when the machine is pushed back in situ.
There may be a problem with the water pressure switch or the small hose connected to it.

How easy is the water pressure switch and hose to find, and are they relatively inexpensive to replace? What do I need to look for?
Re: Indesit WIE127 washing machine – H20 error
The pressure switch is only one of many components that can cause spurious error messages, it could be faults elswhere, the heater, the PCB, the machine stuck on test etc. Very ticklish electronics on these machines, I would say that you have eliminated everything that you can do yourself. Changing parts ad hoc is not the best way to go.
