We're visiting Tuscany in a few weeks and although we plan to have a few nights staying in the countryside (from where we'll visit the Pisa, Florence and Siena, Piombino and Elba), we'd also like to have a couple of nights in a small or medium sized town where we can walk to a selection of bars and restaurants and where there are a places to stroll after dinner and a choice of shops to browse.
At this stage in the holiday we might be ready to just relax, but if it is somewhere with the option of things to see and do for a couple of days then that would be a bonus.
I wondered if San Gimignano is the sort of place that we're looking for. If not, can anyone suggest somewhere that might fit the bill? Preferably in the west or central Tuscany.
Many thanks
