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.

I am just another Sky customer and my views are my own even if you don't like the answers

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.
