The copse is situated in a rural area, surrounded by rolling hills and farmland, providing a peaceful and serene environment for visitors to enjoy. The woodland is primarily composed of native broadleaf trees, including oak, ash, and beech, which create a dense canopy that filters sunlight and creates a cool and shaded atmosphere.

These paths are well-maintained and offer an immersive experience, allowing visitors to fully appreciate the sights, sounds, and scents of the woodland.

Knowle Copse is also home to a rich variety of wildlife. Birds such as woodpeckers, owls, and songbirds can be heard singing their melodious tunes throughout the day, while small mammals like squirrels and hedgehogs can be spotted scurrying amongst the undergrowth. The copse is also a haven for insects, with butterflies, bees, and beetles flitting between the flowers and plants.
