We stayed pretty close by at Martina Franca & visited this really lovely, charming old town for the day. It’s quiet, laid back & it has as a really nice vibe about the place, it’s not over run by tourists. We wandered about the old town taking photos of the beautiful old alleys & buildings. A number is very nice restaurants/cafes/bars & rather upmarket little shops selling locally produced goods. If you are in the area then Cisternino is most definitely worth a visit.
