'turn' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'look a little while at northern mountain' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'look' could be 'lo' (archaic exclamation meaning 'look!') and 'lo' is present in the answer.
'at' could be 'on' (location) and 'on' is located in the answer.
'northern' could be 'n' (abbreviation e.g. N. Ireland) and 'n' is found in the answer.
'mountain' could be 'm' (geographical abbreviation) and 'm' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'bed' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'around' is the link.
