Why "Drôme Sport Nature"? The link with La Bergerie des Collines

If you found this page by searching for "Drôme Sport Nature" or typing the address dromesportnature.com directly, here is the simple explanation: it is the same estate as "La Bergerie des Collines". Two names, one place, in Romans-sur-Isère, in the Drôme.

Two names for the same estate

La Bergerie des Collines is the name under which the estate presents itself today: it is the one used on the website, on business listings and in documents. Drôme Sport Nature is its secondary name, the one that gave its name to the internet domain dromesportnature.com. Both refer to exactly the same place — there are not two estates or two operators, only two ways of naming the same location.

This double naming shows up in the reviews left by past guests: some mention "Drôme Sport Nature", others "La Bergerie des Collines", sometimes both in the same sentence — a sign that visitors have been using both names for a while, even before it was made explicit on the site.

Where does the name "Drôme Sport Nature" come from?

The name combines the region — the Drôme — with what the estate concretely offers: outdoor sport, in a natural setting. That association is what gave its name to the internet domain, registered in that form. The name kept for presenting the estate day to day remained "La Bergerie des Collines", which refers to the building's history — a former sheepfold, restored — rather than to its current use.

The two names coexist for a simple reason: one describes what the building used to be, the other describes what it is used for today.

What the estate offers

In practical terms, La Bergerie des Collines — or Drôme Sport Nature, depending on which name brought you here — is a private 300 m² estate in Romans-sur-Isère, set within 3.5 hectares of woodland. The place is let exclusively, by the week:

• 11 beds across 4 bedrooms
• 4 private sports courts: tennis, padel, city stade, petanque, equipment included
• Heated pool, 12×5 m
• 3.5ha of wooded grounds, in the Drôme des Collines

It is this combination — group accommodation and private sports facilities, in a natural setting — that the name "Drôme Sport Nature" sums up, and that the estate highlights for sports retreats, club training camps and corporate seminars.

Why you may encounter either name

You may come across "Drôme Sport Nature" or "La Bergerie des Collines" depending on the source: the domain name, an online listing, a guest review, or the site's own presentation. Both refer to the same address — 644 chemin de Poucheron, 26100 Romans-sur-Isère, in the Drôme — and the same contact. If one of the two names felt familiar without you knowing why, it is probably because you had already come across it in a review, a search, or simply the site's address.

Why Romans-sur-Isère and the Drôme

The estate is located in Romans-sur-Isère, about ten minutes from the town centre, in the Drôme des Collines — an area nestled between the Vercors and the Rhône valley. This location, close to a town yet fully rural, makes it possible to combine private wooded grounds with on-site sports facilities, with no need to book a time slot or share a court with other groups.
