We have 3 nights and 2 full days to get a taste of SG, Volterra, and Siena. It is too short but our first time in Italy so can't miss experiencing the countryside.
We are a family of 4 with adult children (18 and 24) and were thinking of staying near SG to have a day to relax around SG/ Volterra and another to visit Siena. We will rent a car in Florence and then on day 3 drive to Rome. We leave from Florence in late afternoon which might be a mistake with traffic.
There are so many nice looking B&B's to choose from. Trying to find one that will make our driving time efficient, has a pool, and is not far from SG by car, or walking is even better. Thinking about La Fornace di Rocciano in SG, but can find no ratings. Some friends stayed at Rosolaccio but it is a bit farther away from Florence/Siena road. Or we could stay close to Siena which would save a little time as we depart to Rome, but backtracking to see SG & Volterra. Any input will be appreciated.
