They said they are also unable to offer the visitors another date, as all other dates are now sold out.

"However, we are working extremely hard on the conditions at the site and if things improve, we are able to add any spaces then we will contact you with advance notice of any further tickets becoming available," they said.

The event, which takes place between December 5 and December 22 on the grounds of the English Heritage property, sees the grounds of the property illuminated in spectacular lighting.
