I gave a rustic cabin that is weather tight and stocked with enough wood and lamp oil to last several weeks. The hand pump is in the kitchen over the sink. And yes it has a 2 holer out back.

Mid winter pipe damage to the main redidence is a concern, but that’s what insurance is for.

It must be a great place to escape to.

I am not sure if you are talking about two different structures. It would seem like with a hand pump in the kitchen that the amount of plumbing that you have is very minimal and the water is not under pressure even if the pipes do crack. But with a system that old you might want to make sure that the pipes are not made out of lead that could be contaminating your water.
