woodland setting

Trees all around

A woodland setting is an environment characterized by trees and forest—either an actual wooded area or a scene depicted as one.

The phrase appears in real estate listings, fiction, and event planning: The cabin offers a peaceful woodland setting.

In fantasy games and literature, a woodland setting suggests elves, druids, and forest creatures.
