Beech House Stud is a thoroughbred racehorse breeding facility in Newmarket, Suffolk, England, now part of the Shadwell Racing operation controlled by Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum. Its land was originally part of the neighboring Cheveley Park Stud before Charles Hackford acquired and then sold the parcel to Martin H. Benson in 1930, who developed it into a significant breeding center. The stud later passed to Sir Victor Sassoon in 1960 and then to the Italian banker Carlo Vittadini before coming under its present ownership. Throughout its history it has operated as a commercial breeding operation, housing prominent stallions and their offspring for the racing industry.
