Domaine Les Ranchisses

The first certified lawn bowls field in France, Domaine Les Ranchisses offers you the opportunity to discover this sport of English origin during your stay with us. Lawn bowls, also known as boulingrin in France, is a sport which requires tactics and dexterity, but which is played in a friendly and good-humoured atmosphere! Widely played in Commonwealth countries, lawn bowls is a sport where the aim is to place more balls than your opponent as close to the jack as possible, the equivalent of what we know as the jack.

This sport, which is reminiscent of pétanque or boule lyonnaise, is played on a grass pitch. Let yourself be charmed by this “so british” sport and have a great time during your stay at Domaine Les Ranchisses! Labelled as a “Bowls Social Club” by the French Federation of Lawn Bowls (FFLB), our establishment has the first regulation-sized pitch entirely dedicated to the practice of this sport in France. So don’t hesitate to come and enjoy this unique leisure facility in the Ardèche!
