With the consumer service, you can't. The maximum is a main Q box and 4 mini's (only 2 allowed concurrently)

The other option is Stream but you'd need a suitable large broadband connection.

Alternatively, Sky business may be able to accomodate.

What were you expecting? Sky Q is approaching a decade in age and supports a maximum of four Mini boxes with any two actually in use: it's not likely to be suitable for an address on your scale, and was never designed to be.

The Sky Glass/Stream platform permits six Stream pucks and three Glass television sets to be active simultaneously: for that you'd want at least 500Mbs FTTP. Don't even consider it at a property with FTTC.
