Little Kingshill is a small, quietly attractive village in Buckinghamshire, England, set on the scarp of the Chiltern Hills and within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its position on rolling chalk countryside gives it typical beech-woodland scenery, good views and a network of footpaths and bridleways, while being only a few miles from Great Missenden and High Wycombe.
Historically the name hints at medieval royal association and the settlement grew from agricultural roots; today it remains largely residential with a strong local community atmosphere and small-scale local services, while many residents commute further afield - notably to London via nearby rail links. The mix of long-standing village life and commuter households, together with easy access to countryside recreation, gives Little Kingshill a quietly affluent, village-friendly character.
