Situated in the southwestern part of the country, this woodland covers an area of approximately 50 acres, making it a relatively small forest in comparison to others in the region. Despite its size, Baldhill Copse boasts a diverse range of flora and fauna, making it a popular destination for nature enthusiasts, hikers, and photographers.

The copse is composed of a mixture of deciduous and coniferous trees, including oak, beech, and pine, which create a vibrant and colorful setting throughout the year.
