Residenza del Duca sits just outside Martina Franca — a town of Baroque palaces and courtyards, home to the celebrated Festival della Valle d'Itria. All around unfolds a landscape of dry-stone walls, olive groves and trulli, with the white hill-towns of Locorotondo, Cisternino and UNESCO Alberobello only minutes away.
Ostuni, the “White City”, and both the Adriatic and Ionian coasts are within easy reach — as are the seafood towns of Monopoli and Polignano a Mare. Below are our personal recommendations across the valley and the coast.
