'rest in comfort' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'possibly sent half a mile' is the wordplay.
'possibly' is an anagram indicator.
'half a' indicates taking half.
'mile' cut in half is 'le'.
'sent' is an anagram of 'nest'.
'nest'+'le'='NESTLE'

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
