Home base between Florence and Rome
Hello
We are flying into Florence and out of Rome. Looking for suggestions on a town/village to stay that is in between Florence and Rome. ( looks like Pienza is the mid point) Want to be in the country but have easy access to other places to visit. We will have a car for this part of the trip. Traveling with kids 11 and 13. Plan to stay for 3 nights. If you have accommodation recommendations would love to hear some. Looking for a place that would give us space but still offer breakfast. We do not plan to be cooking. Not traveling until April.
Thank you!

I love staying here-

It is a lovely property surrounded by beautiful landscape and views. It is a very central and easy base location (just outside of Pienza) for exploring the area. The breakfasts are very good. I've stayed there around eight times (usually for 2 weeks each visit) and will continue to return.
