WHAT TO SEE:
Inland SALENTO has several charming villages with ancient history. The advantage of staying in a town is socialising with Italian neighbours, walking to the cafe and buying a newspaper and a cup of coffee in the morning, and having all amenities within reach during daytime and nighttime. The townhouses often come with a garden and roof terrace. And its fascination to open the simple door from the street - and inside, almost like a little palace with a garden!
In Sternatina and Martignano to the south, the villagers still speak antique Greek villagers.
Maglie is like a mini Lecce and has many fine buildings. Muro Leccese is a small town/village with a satisfactory architectural history. Cutrofiano is known for French holiday home ownership. Ruffano has many fine old buildings for sale, waiting to find new owners and to be restored.
