Desert stopover (5)
I believe the answer is:
oasis
'desert stopover' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for oasis that I've seen before include "Pop group" , "Peaceful spot" , "place of relief" , "can provide welcome relief" , "Band with Liam and Noel Gallagher" .)
