San Mommè (www.sanmomme.it)
is a holiday resort about 585m above sea level, renowned for its
pleasant summer climate. Its proximity to towns such as Pistoia,
Florence and Lucca enables a lot of people to commute to their
holiday homes and enjoy the fresh air after a hot and busy day
at the office.
Special interest holidays
In the hills around San Mommè you can take long walks, go
trekking or mountain-biking, lake-fishing and perhaps visiting
some of the many surrounding villages steeped in the history and
traditions of the area. Children can play in the village park
while teenagers and grown ups can play soccer at the village
soccer field or tennis at the private tennis court of a Hotel in
the village. In the local store you can go shop for fresh
vegetables and warm Tuscan bread ("schiacciata") to eat with
shepherd's cheese or genuine Tuscan salami. At the local café
you can take refreshments as you enjoy the sunshine of the
village square. You can try a real “bistecca fiorentina" and
sample the delicious Chianti wine at the local restaurant (and
all at very reasonable prices). In the village there is a Post
Office – open 3 days a week, and Railway Station. The pharmacy
is in Piteccio, 4 Km.
During the summer the village organizes evening dances,
fancy-dress parties and Bingo with our typical gastromonic
products as prizes.
If you are interested in SPAS you can not miss La Grotta Giusti
of Monsummano Terme and the beneficial waters of Montecatini
Terme both located a few kilometres from Pistoia.
