Former holiday accommodation in range? (6)
I believe the answer is:
extent
'range?' is the definition.
(range is a kind of extent)
'former holiday accommodation' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'former' could be 'ex' and 'ex' is present in the answer.
'accommodation' could be 'tent' (I have seen 'Temporary accommodation' mean 'tent' so perhaps 'accommodation' could also mean 'tent') and 'tent' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for extent that I've seen before include "Area of coverage" , "The size or scale of something" , "Range or scope of something" , "stretch" , "Measure" .)
