Aston Abbotts is a small rural village and civil parish in Buckinghamshire, England, a few miles north‑west of Aylesbury on the edge of the Chiltern Hills. The settlement is compact, with traditional brick and flint cottages clustered around the village church and green, set amid arable fields and quiet lanes popular with walkers and cyclists.
Historically the “Abbotts” suffix reflects medieval ownership by the abbots of St Albans, and the village is perhaps best known for hosting the exiled Czechoslovak president Edvard Beneš during the Second World War, an episode still marked locally. Today Aston Abbotts is largely residential with farming nearby and a close‑knit community that commutes to centres such as Aylesbury and London while retaining village events and a strong sense of local history.
