How to find holiday accommodation accessible by public transport?

Can you recommend any sites which list (or allow easy searches for) villas/cottages/apartments in Europe that are accessible without a car? I've found a couple for Italy here and here - any other suggestions?
I should add to that 'vary widely' clause that my girlfriend and her sister rent out 2 houses in Maratea (through some local agency), on the coast south of Naples, that are way up a hill from the village, and the sea is even further, so a place like that you'd be pretty limited without a car...however, such places tend to be cheaper and with the savings you could rent a car and would end up being ahead. all around.
Plus of course, if you're looking to rent within a European city then a car would be entirely unnecessary.

Response by poster: Thanks, but this wasn't isn't really what I'm after - I want to choose where to go on basis of what's accessible by public transport rather than the other way round, so am looking for examples along the lines of the ones I've posted. It needs to be somewhere accessible by public transport, because I don't drive, so renting a car is not an option. Cities are easy, of course, so the challenge is somewhere that is out of the way but does have some sort of reasonably frequent way of getting about. Another examples from England - this site lets you search for places near to a train station.
