Wonderful. We know the location pretty well. If it were me I'd do it up to live in and then provide cream teas in the summer.1 -

With a G(3) EPC, you won't be able to rent it out. Also need to cough up £125 p.a. for a vehicle access licence which may or may not go up. Without that, it is a 20 min hike to the nearest road on a good day. Getting deliveries may be an issue....
Her courage will change the world.

Winterscales Beck is just the other side of the railway line, so water shouldn't be a major issue. If push comes to shove, drill a borehole.

It's surprising how much you can get in a rucksack.
