Arles or Arless (historically Ardlisse, from ) is a village in County Laois, Ireland. It lies 2 km northwest of Ballickmoyler and 10 km northwest of Carlow, on the N80 national secondary road.

Located close to Carlow, the village has expanded in size since its foundation, when it comprised just a few houses around the church. The church was built in the 1680s (according to an inscription on a stone in the wall) and originally had a thatched roof. A mausoleum to the Grace family was built in the churchyard in 1818.{{cite web
