Two questions

1_Is this sentence correct?
他们打算去另两个地方看看。

It;s better to be "他们打算去另外两个地方看看。"


2_What does mean处 this sentence?
刚才他们去看了一处房子

OK,you should know this word first.
chù suǒ 处所,It’ Chinese meaning is house where people live.So it can be used as a measure word,such as 一处房屋or 一处错误。
But when 处chù he tone become chǔ ,it will become a verb, which means "located in". Such as "处chǔ于yú“。

处 has a meaning of "locate" in english, for instance, 这个村子"处"于一 山谷中 This villiage is located in a valley. we could also use 一个房子 or 一座房子, but 一处房子 has the implication of they are looking for a house or an apartment to buy or to rent.
