Close by is Koji Pond and the ice cream shop, but it's closed for the winter. Should we continue on west of south, we would arrive at Central Deerington, where the cafe, bar and library are located... and mine own house.

I cannot promise my house is quiet, but I can have the dog stay somewhere she would not bother you.
