Liss is a village in the district of East Hampshire in Hampshire, England, sitting at the northern edge of the South Downs National Park and close to the small town of Petersfield. The settlement is backed by wooded areas such as Liss Forest and lies near the valley of the River Rother, making it popular with walkers and those who appreciate a mix of downland and woodland scenery.

Historically a rural community that expanded with the arrival of the railway, Liss is served by the Portsmouth Direct Line, providing regular trains towards Portsmouth and London Waterloo, which has reinforced its role as both a local service centre and a commuter village. Community life centres on local shops, a village hall and clubs and events that reflect its blend of countryside character and modern commuter population.
