Is it possible to be towing a small ERD trailer that has a tow bar fitted to the back of the trailer and put 2 adult bikes on it? So there would be the Corsa, a small trailer, then 2 bikes?

No it is not legal to tow more than one trailer unless you are a farmer or a showman!

Unless you mean fitting a bike rack on the back of the trailer in which case it is ok.

You would be better fitting a set of roof bars across the trailer and then fitting bike racks onto them.

There is nowhere on the back of the trailer that is structurally strong enough to support the towball fixings and the weight of the bikes.

If using bars across the top of an ERDE 122 ... you can only carry two bikes. So that should be OK for you. You can get the heavy duty bars at Halfords ... and the bike racks to strap to them ... they'll fit the lot.
