A white-washed hilltown encircled by olive groves, Ostuni’s good looks are hard to resist. Walk along the ancient city walls, visit the fantastically gothic cathedral and stock up on some of the region’s famously superb olive oil.
If you happen to be staying on a Saturday, make sure you check out the lively Saturday morning market which offers local crafts and the freshest regional produce. Ostuni is also a great base on account of its close proximity to some of Puglia’s most picturesque towns such as Locorotondo, Martina Franca and Alberobello.
