Home in the sticks (4)
I believe the answer is:
nest
'home in the sticks' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for nest that I've seen before include "Something found in Chinese soup" , "Stack of tables" , "'Birds in their little . . . . agree'" , "Den" , "Rook's residence?" .)
