The Goschen Baronetcy, of Beacon Lodge, Highcliffe, in the County of Southampton, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 17 January 1916 for the prominent diplomat Sir Edward Goschen. He served as British Ambassador to Germany from 1908 until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. As of 2006 the title is held by his great-grandson, the fourth Baronet, who succeeded his father in 2001.
