'lady of the lake?' is the definition.
'windermere' can be an answer for 'lake?' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the 'lady of the' bit.

'of the lake?' is the wordplay.
'of' becomes 'winder' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).

'winder'+'mere'='WINDERMERE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for windermere that I've seen before include "Lake District lake" , "Water body" , "inland water" , "Cumbrian lake" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
