Lillingstone Dayrell with Luffield Abbey is a civil parish located in the county of Buckinghamshire, England. The parish is made up of two villages, Lillingstone Dayrell and Luffield Abbey, which are situated in close proximity to each other.

Lillingstone Dayrell is a small village with a population of around 100 people. It is known for its picturesque setting, surrounded by rolling countryside and charming cottages. The village is notable for its historic manor house, Lillingstone Dayrell House, which dates back to the 17th century. The house is a Grade II listed building and is privately owned.

Luffield Abbey, on the other hand, is a former Cistercian monastery that was founded in the 12th century. The abbey played an important role in the religious and cultural life of the region for several centuries.

Today, only ruins of the abbey remain, which are a Scheduled Ancient Monument and are open to the public.
