Payment from earlier era holiday accommodation in France (3,3,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

old age pension

'payment' is the definition.
(I know that old-age pension is a type of pension)

'earlier era holiday accommodation in france' is the wordplay.
'earlier' becomes 'old' (old can mean former or earlier).
'era' becomes 'age' (both can mean a long period of time).
'holiday accommodation in france' becomes 'pension' (French term for a hotel).
'old'+'age'+'pension'='OLD-AGE PENSION'

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for old age pension that I've seen before include "Source of income" , "Senior citizen's allowance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
