I absolutely recommend Podere Il Pero. We used it as a base to see the other cities, sites, and wineries and it was the perfect choice. We did NOT have a car and were still able to do everything that we wanted either by walking, bus, train, or taxi; all are available and very convenient from this location. The bed and breakfast is charming, spotless, and very comfortable. I agree that this is one of the best breakfasts in Italy. I can't say enough about our host Gianni who helped us figure out the details of our tours and transportation during our 5 day visit (two wineries, Cinque Terre, Pisa, Florence, and Sienna). He and his family were very hospitable and made us feel like we were the only ones there. One day we'll be back, gazing at the beautiful view from the terrace and sipping on a glass of wine. read more
