adorable

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'lovely' is the definition.
('adorable' can be a synonym of 'lovely')

'winding road on med isle heading north' is the wordplay.
'winding' indicates anagramming the letters.
'on med isle' becomes 'elba' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'heading north' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'elba' in reverse letter order is 'able'.
'road' with letters rearranged gives 'ador'.
'ador'+'able'='ADORABLE'
