Maybe Chesterfield group should meet golfing supporter (6)

I believe the answer is:

settee

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

'maybe chesterfield' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'group should meet golfing supporter' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'group' could be 'set' (both can mean a collection) and 'set' is present in the answer.
'supporter' could be 'tee' (support for a golf ball in golf) and 'tee' is located in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for settee that I've seen before include "Long seat with back and arms" , "A long couch without arm-rests" , "Sofa, couch" , "Comfy seating" , "Multiple seat" .)
