I've used Wordfence on a couple of Wordfence sites I host and now am considering going premium? - Largely due to a recent attack. Has anyone used it? Is it worth it?
Yes, for performance and some extra protection against threats. What kind of attack got your site recently? Wordfence can slow your site down a bit, I turn of most of the functions.
Have you looked at a dedicated wordpress host instead that includes such services? A Wordpress website that is only using basic features, can work out as quite an expensive website (including labour costs in keeping it upto date), when you compare it to a website builder like Squarespace.
I've used both, Wordpress is much more flexible. Run an automatic update plugin, plus an automated backup plugin to back up off the host, that keeps security good - plus some basics like never use an account called admin and don't post using your admin account.
SS is simpler though, but way way way less flexible.
