Hot drink permitted in holiday accommodation (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chalet

'holiday accommodation' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'hot drink permitted' is the wordplay.
'hot drink' becomes 'cha' (cha can mean tea).
'permitted' becomes 'let' (to let something happen is to permit it).
'cha'+'let'='CHALET'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for chalet that I've seen before include "Small cabin" , "Swiss-style holiday house" , "Holiday cabin" , "holiday accommodation" , "Swiss cottage or small villa" .)
