Little Missenden is a small Chiltern village in Buckinghamshire, tucked into the wooded valley of the River Misbourne. It retains a picturesque core of timber‑framed cottages and a medieval parish church, and lies a short distance from Great Missenden and Amersham, making it feel rural while still well connected.
Historically agricultural, the village now blends a quiet country character with a commuter population travelling to London, and it supports a lively local scene including a long‑running chamber and folk music festival alongside small creative and hospitality businesses. The surrounding countryside sits within the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is popular for walking and other outdoor pursuits.
