Orders inside. The din is dreadful (7)

I believe the answer is:

noisome

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'is dreadful' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'orders inside the din' is the wordplay.
'orders' becomes 'om' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'inside' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'the din' becomes 'noise' (a din is a noisy disturbance).
'om' put within 'noise' is 'NOISOME'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for noisome that I've seen before include "Odious" , "noxious smells" , "unhealthy" , "Foul-smelling - semi-Ono (anag)" , "Smelling bad" .)
