I enjoy travelling custom-writing Tall, elegant and informal, Miranda lives at Burghley now, with her husband and four young children. Tricycles and toy cars cluster at one end of the courtyard, just out of sight of the visiting public. The children keep their scooters inside, parked by the kitchen door, Miranda explains, “because it’s a long way to the loo” so the youngest members of the family scoot 30m down a stone corridor flanked with precious antiques. “They haven’t broken anything yet,” she says, quickly touching wood.
