Restful place in Scotland (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cot

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

'restful place' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'in scotland' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'COT' can be found hidden inside 'scotland'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cot that I've seen before include "Small child's bed" , "Baby's bed" , "Crib" , "Folding bed - fingerstall" , "Camp bed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
