Hotel Chocolat Easter Eggs - Windsor

Oooh you fancy. Based on your choice you’d love a long weekend in Windsor. You’ll be surrounded by beautiful cafés, where you can enjoy the perfect cup of tea and no one will judge you if you stick your pinkie out while drinking it. Plus, the entire extended Royal Family will be there so it’s a perfect excuse to break out your fanciest hat. We’re sure you will fit right in.

Mini Eggs – The Cotswolds

You’re the maternal role in your family/friend’s group/work team, so you probably need a break. You probably say things like ‘oh I’ll just have one’ as you’re on your fourth trip back to the communal egg collection. But it’s ok, as you just give everyone else an excuse to do the same thing. Spend your long weekend in the Cotswolds. No one can deny its beauty and it’s pretty much built around a good walk then retiring to a cosy pub. It’s the perfect relaxing getaway, where you can eat your Mini Eggs with your glass of prosecco (or other, non-alcoholic sparkling drink).

Galaxy Golden Eggs – Brighton

You add a little bit of sparkle to an otherwise boring day. You’re a bit quirky but in a way everyone understands. You make people feel ‘hip’ just for relating to you. You probably started watching The Great British Bake Off before it turned into the juggernaut it is now, and are always a welcome addition to any event. Based on this you should spend your long weekend in Brighton. It has all the things to remind you of your childhood, the pier, colourful houses etc. but with a bit of an edge. As well as some pretty decent cafes.

White Chocolate Eggs – Cornwall

Like the White Chocolate Egg you are extremely sweet. You probably remember everyone’s birthday and make sure everyone gets a slice of cake at your own party. You are the ultimate unsung hero so spend your long weekend in Cornwall and put yourself first for a change. The beaches are stunning and the towns are a little quieter, at this time of year, meaning you can use it to get some much needed ‘me time’.

Dairy Milk Egg – Birmingham
