... between very small bits about nice rural motel (14)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

intermolecular

'between very small bits' is the definition.
(between molecules)

'about nice rural motel' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'nice'+'rural'+'motel'='niceruralmotel'
'niceruralmotel' is an anagram of 'INTERMOLECULAR'.

(Another definition for intermolecular that I've seen is " between groups of atoms".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
