Llansoy (Welsh: Llan-soe) is a small village in the principal area of Monmouthshire, in southeast Wales, located about 3 miles (4.2 km) southeast of Raglan. The neighbouring parish is Llanvihangel Tor y Mynydd.
It was a civil parish in the Chepstow Rural District from 1894 until 1935. In 1935, in a move to reduce the number of parishes within Chepstow Rural District, Llansoy was absorbed into the civil parish of Llangwm.
