Any area of cover is best. This species does live away from woodland but beech woodland is particularly good for them, as long as it has a relative amount of understory such as dead wood, open areas with undergrowth. They will do well in bramble, hedgerows etc and areas of neglect. It is a very wide ranging and adaptable species so as long as there is cover it will survive.
