Win a Digital Detox Thanks to General Assembly and Airbnb

If you've been feeling fandangled by Facebook and in a tangle over Twitter, it's time to take a deep breath, kick back and relax. Good news is General Assembly has cooked up a plan to make the decompression process a whole lot easier for you. Welcome to the epic Digital Detox giveaway.

The digital education whizzes are giving five lucky, lucky readers among you a lush prize package made up of a sleepover in an Airbnb property of your choice (to the value of $400), a gastronomic indulgence courtesy of Lime & Tonic, a case of top-shelf wine from Vinomofo and, for when you come floating back to life on the Earthly plane, $200 credit towards a General Assembly course.

Having started in New York in 2011 and since spread its wings to 11 other cities around the world, General Assembly is all about empowering you to pursue the career that inspires you. There are full-time, part-time and online courses, as well as one-off workshops and events, so you can either dive off the deep-end into a possibly life-changing experience or nibble around the edges and experiment with something that attracts your interest. Workshops coming up in Sydney and Melbourne include Programming Fundamentals for Non-Programmers, Lean UX Fundamentals, and Code in One Day: HTML & CSS Crash Course.

As to the Airbnb stays, it's entirely up to you, but may we recommend this Tree Top Eco Retreat in Queensland.

This uber-cosy retreat, with its thatched roof and king-sized bed, brings a touch of Bali to Noosa. Floor-to-ceiling windows afford panoramic views of the national park and the west-facing position means sunsets worthy of a Ron Fricke film. Plus you get your own indoor-outdoor covered bathroom, your own deck (complete with hammock) and access to the onsite yoga room. The entire structure is separate from the main dwelling, so there's total privacy. Beaches and restaurants are just a few minutes' walk away.

Alternatively, there's this luxurious accommodation. Byron's Secret is found on a five-acre property, just off a tranquil country lane in the Byron Bay hinterland.

The 180-degree panorama includes Byron Bay's renowned coast-scape foregrounded by Myocum Valley, as well as Mount Chincogan. Inside, you can detox in style in a pillowtop queen-sized bed fitted with bamboo linen, curl up in the lounge room or bliss out on the ocean views visible from the deep cast-iron bath. A hamper brimming with local organic produce meets you on arrival.

To enter the the Digital Detox head to the General Assembly website. You have until September 29.
