House at Beach head, a warm place (3)
I believe the answer is:
hob
'a warm place' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with contact as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'house at beach head' is the wordplay.
'house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'at' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'head' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'beach' is 'b'.
'ho'+'b'='HOB'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hob that I've seen before include "Hot plate" , "Cooker ring" , "Top of stove" , "Flat metal shelf at side of fireplace" , "Small goblin" .)
