Liking quiet place (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
soft spot
'liking' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'quiet place' is the wordplay.
'quiet' becomes 'soft' ('soft' can be similar in meaning to 'quiet').
'place' becomes 'spot' ('spot' can be a synonym of 'place'**).
'soft'+'spot'='SOFT SPOT'
(Other definitions for soft spot that I've seen before include "Sentimental fondness" , "Affectionate weakness for (someone/something)" , "Sentimental affection" , "Emotional susceptibility" , "Feeling of affection towards person - not hard" .)
