Re: Options for Sky services at 2nd property
An account can only have 1 broadband and 1 TV service and is tied to an address so you need to setup a new account for your 2nd property if you want Sky services there.

Re: Options for Sky services at 2nd property
Your best bet would be to take the whole home option and use the Sky Go app, although that would limit you to certain devices (Apple TV box for one). Failing that take a Now subscription for the Sky channels and, if there is no aerial at the other property, buy a Firestick in the sales and use that for the terrestrial channels. (the Firestick has a useful EPG). The wholly grail in this circumstance would be an Apple TV box with the TV Launcher app, that would bundle the terrestrial channels and Sky Go channels into one EPG.

Re: Options for Sky services at 2nd property
Your answer is at another level entirely and I shall have to do some research to fully understand it, but it sounds good.
The further consideration that I hadn't thought of before is that the 2nd property is not for our own exclusive use and so there will be guests who would like to have a reasonable range of TV options but not necessarily the heavily sports biased choice that we have. I wouldn't want the guests to be logging into "my" Sky or TV package account.
Perhaps that means taking on a separate account with a basic package for the guests and then using Sky Go for when we stay there.
I haven't investigated what Sky Go is yet but I presume that it means you can access you Sky account on the mobile and at other locations.
