Don't use a heat pump if you can, they're just not worth it. If the ambient air temperature drops below like 50 they become *horribly* inefficient at generating heat compared to gas furnaces. Unless you live in a desert or some other place that's hot pretty much all year round and you never have a serious demand for heat.

I just got a cast iron wood stove for free. It was 500lbs and they said if I can move it I can have it. So I will build a cabin around this new stove to heat during winters. I'm looking for some mountain land to build a new castle

Yeah man, the old ones are *great*. They are extremely efficient at heat transfer too. I know a guy who heats a small-ish farmhouse with one of those for basically the entire winter.
