I understand this, which is why I said the Tuscan countryside. I suppose I was not clear so my apologies. We are thinking about staying at Villa Bordoni in Greve in Chianti.
We've though about taking a car from Rome but as I understand it this would not resolve the issue of getting away from the ZTLs and additionally would require a significantly longer drive (~3 hours compared to ~1 from Florence).
