I did this when I went to Paris and wanted to spend a few days in the Loire Valley. You take the TGV as close as you can to where you want to go and there's a car rental office in the train station, in my case it was Avis. I got to drive a little VW around the area, and then when I was done I just dropped it back at the train station.
In Europe, the rule of thumb is to take trains for the medium- to long-range legs and drive in the places where you can't walk about easily, so you're thinking correctly.
Check out the Rick Steves line of tourbooks. He's a monster dweeb but BOY does he know Europe, esp. France and Italy.
