Historically, Gwembe Castle was built by an Irish immigrant in the mid 1960’s and fell into disuse shortly after he passed away in a car accident along the Falls road. After changing hands several times the property was taken over by the Brooks family late in the 1990’s. Equipped with previous lodge experience Sue and Ian set about converting the Castle for use as luxury holiday apartments.
Located approximately 6km from the Mighty Victoria Falls in Livingstone Zambia, the Castle is uniquely positioned to serve visitors wanting accommodation without the formality or high expense of staying at a hotel or lodge. This is particularly well suited to families or small groups of people travelling together and has a great children’s playground. The Castle is only 3 km from the centre of town and 2 km from the Zambezi itself. This means that restaurants, most activities and the Falls are only a 10 minute drive away.
Gwembe Castle – The Tower is 350 feet from Livingstone Reptile Park and 6 kilometres from the Victoria Falls. Harry Mwanga Nkumbula International Airport is 5 kilometres from the property.
