In the parish of Goodrich near Ross-on-Wye in Herefordshire, Coppett (sometimes 'Coppet') Hill Common is a Local Nature Reserve of over 100 hectares. It is owned by Trustees who live in the parish and conservation work is supported by the Friends of Coppett Hill. It is a mix of woodland and open hillside and a good site for butterflies, birds and fungi.
Permissive paths give access to the reserve as well as offering marvellous views stretching from the Brecon Beacons to Clee Hill and the Malverns. The Reserve is within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
