We used Untours for accomodations in Montalcino. It was a small farm and winery. A rental car was included. I drove
without any problems. Your given an orientation about traffic laws. The apartment was comfortable and had a kitchen. See this link for a description:

We also used UnTours and stayed in lovely villa just below Montepulciano - formerly a mulberry "orchard," now a vineyard. Wonderful host. Not sure they're still renting but we've used UnTours in Provence, Tuscany, Prague, Budapest, and Portugal and found very satisfactory - not luxurious but very clean, lovely hosts, etc.
