Default Gravity Filled ****ter Problems

I have a cabin with no domestic electricity (solar and gas generator) so installing a pump is not possible.
The water is pumped to a holding tank at 18 feet high and then travels by gravity to 3 sets of faucets. The problem is that the drop does not create enough pressure to open the valve (3/8th line) to fill the toilet adequately. Also, when it does open, it takes a very long time to fill.
Is there a top fill toilet, like the early models that had a tank above the toilet?

Are there any fill valves that would work better than a traditional fill valve that is controlled by pressure.
Thanks for all you help in advance.
