Little Gaddesden is a small, picture-postcard village and civil parish in the borough of Dacorum, Hertfordshire, England, sitting on the northern scarp of the Chiltern Hills. It is bordered by the rolling woodlands and commons of the Ashridge Estate and the striking pollarded trunks of Frithsden Beeches, which together make it a popular spot for walkers, photographers and film crews.
Historically the settlement has strong links with nearby country houses and estate agriculture, and today the local economy mixes farming, tourism and a sizable commuter community into London. The village retains traditional features such as a historic parish church, cosy pubs and active local groups, giving it a social life that feels rural but well connected.
