It has a beautiful old town and there is nearly always some kind of show on one of it's many squares throughout the summer months. Check out it's market on a Saturday morning.
Ostuni
Ostuni - less than 20 minutes drive away and very popular as it has had the best coverage in the UK Press. "The White City" sits high upon the hill with its meandering old town and fantastic views out to the coast and is well worth a visit.
Other nearby Towns
Martina Franca - is a must visit with a big market every Wednesday morning and plenty of boutique fashion shops. Beautiful Baroque architecture is on display throughout the pedestrianised section of the old town with many restaurants, cafes and gelaterias.
Alberobello - The UNESCO protected old town is unique. The only town of Trullo houses you will see anywhere in the world. Well worth a visit but be aware of the coachloads of tourists in August!

A bit further afield but worth visiting are Polignano a Mare for it's stunning cliff top old town, Savellitri for it's beach side restaurants specialising in seafood, Lecce for it's architecture and Matera to step back in time.
