Exactly right! Rent scaffolding.
Check with the companies that sell scaffolding.
They might sometimes have old scaffolding that they rent out.
I paid 1500:- for two months (Trebex). 9 meters long and 8 meters high. It's incredibly nice with real railings and especially if you can have stairs like I had. I wish I had rented more, like around the whole house. The result would have been better and it would have gone faster. + the missus might not have been upset about the slightly lacking safety...

As always, do it yourself if possible, and when it comes to scaffolding, there's no problem if you just use rough timber.
It saves a lot of money. Additionally, you can make use of the timber when you've dismantled the scaffolding.
There is a drawing in the book Husets ABC. But my tip is to make your own based on your own conditions and use larger dimensions for the timber so it will be stable.
If you have something extending from the rafters to anchor into, then it will be excellent.
You don't need platform boards around the whole house to walk on. You can easily move them with you as you work.
I'll try to take some time to photograph my scaffolding tonight so you can have an example.

You use 45x95 as beams. Cut off with the same. Crossbeams of the same. Deck with planks 45x195. Angle braces with 22x95 in ! The weak direction! and attach it to the house in a couple of places. Then you nail a railing of 45x95 at 1.1 m... Personally, I would rent a haki scaffold. Building a scaffold around a house say 6x8 m gives a scaffold that is outside 8x10 m which means 5 pairs of beams/short side and 7 on the long side. 7 meters high means double beams gives 20 m beam/beam gives 40 m/pair costs about 400 bucks/beam pair. The planks 30 m theoretically becomes 40 probably 1000 bucks. And 50 m 22x45 is about 300 bucks. Nailing this takes say 8-16 hours for a DIY enthusiast.
Renting a haki costs you maybe 4000 bucks...
On the other hand, hmm you're going up there yourself, right? Otherwise, you're not allowed to build a scaffold if you don't have the certificate...

I have 6-7 meters to my ceiling. I have built a larger model elk tower that I shall move sideways and anchor to the house plus a lifeline in the house!
