Hugh Burdett Money-Coutts, 6th Baron Latymer was an English peer. He inherited the title Baron Latymer from his father, Francis Money-Coutts, 5th Baron Latymer.
Money-Coutts was educated at Radley College and New College, Oxford. After university he joined the Royal Navy Volunteer Reserve. In 1900 he married Hester Frances, the 4th daughter of Major-General John Cecil Russell, CVO: they had three sons and one daughter.
