A pick of the best Jersey homes with gardens for an Easter egg hunt

16 April 2025

For those entertaining family and friends this Easter weekend, a chocolate egg hunt can often be the perfect way to keep the younger generation entertained while enjoying the spring weather and indulging in a sweet treat.

The origins can be traced back to 16th-century Germany, where Protestant reformer Martin Luther organised hunts for his congregation.

Linked to the Easter Bunny (or Easter Hare as it was then known) the custom gradually spread further afield – with the future Queen Victoria enjoying egg hunts at Kensington Palace organised by her mother, the German-born Duchess of Kent.

Although artificial eggs began to appear in London in the 1850s it wasn’t until the late 19^th and early 20^th centuries that they increased in popularity, when family life became more of a priority for the expanding middle classes with more disposable income.

Today, the Easter egg hunt is a fun annual tradition for many. With a garden filled with nooks and crannies as hiding spots, warmer temperatures and a generous supply of eggs, you have everything you need for the perfect Easter activity.
