An accommodating woman (8)
I believe the answer is:
landlady
'an accommodating woman' is the definition.
(woman providing accommodation)
'accommodating woman' is the wordplay.
'accommodating' becomes 'land' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'woman' becomes 'lady' (lady is a kind of woman).
'land'+'lady'='LANDLADY'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for landlady that I've seen before include "Woman who keeps lodgings" , "Person offering property to rent" , "Renter" , "Woman with tenants, or a pub" , "country-woman" .)
