Comfy spot Francis of Assisi hides (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sofa

'comfy spot' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'francis of assisi hides' is the wordplay.
'hides' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SOFA' is hidden in the letters of 'francis of assisi'.

(Other definitions for sofa that I've seen before include "Wide padded seat" , "Oafs (anag.)" , "Long upholstered seat with back and arms" , "Upholstered seat for more than one person" , "Chesterfield, maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
