'Euridge Manor Weddings is delighted at the grant of planning consent,' a spokesperson says.
When Robinson bought Euridge Manor Farm in 1980, it covered 200 acres, with a five-bedroom farmhouse, sheds and 3 cottages. But the tycoon extended the estate, buying 250 acres of surrounding land, and developing an orangery with 2 bed rooms and an indoor pool.
He married now ex-wife Belle at Euridge in 2004. After their divorce in 2014, Robinson signed up business Euridge Manor Weddings Incorporated and started hosting ceremonies.
