The multi-millionaire founder of style chain Jigsaw needed to get rid of objections from locals about and congested roadways. He was offered 4 months' notification in 2022 to stop hosting occasions at his ₤ 12 million residential or commercial property, Euridge Manor.

'Euridge Manor Weddings is delighted at the grant of preparing approval,' a representative states.

When Robinson purchased Euridge Manor Farm in 1980, it covered 200 acres, with a five-bedroom farmhouse, outbuildings and 3 cottages. But the tycoon extended the estate, purchasing 250 acres of surrounding land, and constructing an orangery with two bed rooms and an indoor swimming pool.

He wed now ex-wife Belle at Euridge in 2004. After their divorce in 2014, Robinson registered company Euridge Manor Weddings Incorporated and started hosting events.
