Mr Huppert said all booking requests would be vetted by the company.

“People seem to think it’s going to be like the Hollywood movie Wolf of Wall Street, but that’s not what it’s like,” Mr Huppert said.

The film portrays the lavish lifestyle of New York stockbrokers in the late 1980s, with sex-fuelled parties, where drug-taking and fraudulent activities would regularly take place.

Adverts for the holiday lets attached to the Kirkstone Pass Inn describe one as having a 1980s-style retro American diner, casino-style games with arcades, a poker table, roulette and room for 22 people.

The other is said to be a “luxurious” property, with hot tubs, a sauna and room for up to 21 people.

Mr Huppert said the pub, although renovated, had remained unchanged and he was hoping it would open in the coming weeks.

“We haven’t even changed the colour scheme, we thought we’d keep everything the same – we’re here to provide a service, not to argue with people,” he said.

He added the team would have hoped to open the pub in the summer, but there were delays with the redevelopment and hiring staff.

“We’re finally excited to open,” he said.

He added the company was completing paperwork for licenses and as soon as those were ready they would open the pub initially, and the accommodation shortly after.
