Hugh Fraser, 7th Lord Lovat (1591-1645) was a Scottish landowner.
Hugh Fraser was the son of Simon Fraser, 6th Lord Lovat and Katherine Mackenzie, daughter of Colin Mackenzie of Kintail.
He was known as the Master of Lovat until he succeeded his father in 1633. He was educated at the University of St Andrews.
In the autumn of 1634 a man cutting withies in the orchard of Lovat found an earthenware pot filled with gold coins and rings apparently from the sixteenth century.
