Have an additional subscription to use at another location

I have a holiday home located 15 miles from my main dwelling. I currently have a Sky Q box at home and would like to have a Skystream box at my holiday home. How can I do this?

Is it not cheaper to install Sky Go onto a Firestick, or another streaming device, and use that? It may have to be a new account in a different name.

Never thought of that, so this will give full functionality?

@Aitch2  You would likely need to order it under a new Sky ID using a different email address to the one you use for Sky currently.

 

For occassional use Sky Go may be the better optiin as mentioned by @KPGills1 

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

That's what I suspected, which I don't mind, just curious about setup, as it would have to be sent to my home address., then setup at the Holiday home,.

@Aitch2  If you want sky stream at a second location you would need to sign up as a new customer at that address and pay for a second full subscription 

 

don't forget stream requires broadband so you will also internet connection

@Aitch2  That's not going to be possible sky will only deliver to the registered address which needs to be the second location

@Aitch2  If you just want access to Sky's subscription channels at the holiday home Sky's NOWTV subscription service would be a better solution .... you can then access other broadcaster's channels using their apps😉

Sky Go would be the better option instead of NOWTV an Apple TV device would work out cheaper than getting Sky Stream and a second Sky TV Subscription 

Why suggest NowTv when Sky Go is available at no extra cost @Exiled-in-HH
