What do you call the accent of a person that comes specifically from England and not other countries from the UK or Great Britain? Is it an 'English' accent? - It sounds like, by saying this, to mean what I am asking the explanation for, it could offend native English speakers that do not live in England. Thank you in advance.

There are lots of different accents across the UK, and there are 4 different countries: English, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
Within each of those places, there are different accents too, for example, people living in Liverpool would likely have a different accent from people in Oxford, even though both of those places are in England.
You can say someone from England has an English accent, or be more specific still and say the sort of English accent they have (e.g., Scouse, RP, etc)
