Coniston TIC has no convenient space for people to sit and use their own Wi-fi enabled device. In good weather you would sit outside in the pleasant garden, or more likely in your car.

There is at present no set charge, instead users are asked for a 'donation'. Once made, you receive a WEP key, which is changed weekly.

Across the road is an internet cafe, Hollands, one of two in the village.
