I have written about Sri Siva Jothi Mona Siddhar's Ashram on my Arunachala Mystic blog many times. His Ashram is located off the Vettavalam Road about 20 kms from Arunachala (as the bird flies) but because of the bendy road route, its probably more of a 30 mile drive from town.
Visited last week bringing Dr. Arun from the Hearty Paws Pet Clinic Tiruvannamalai to perform neutering operations on the two male dogs residing at Swami's Ashram. While waiting for Dr. Arun and his assistant to do the needful, checked out Swami's developing Ashram.
The Temple with the huge Shiva statue on the roof is nearly complete as too is the Meditation and Samadhi Hall.
Below a selection of photographs of the Ashram and also a video of a recent visit of a group of devotees from Russia.
Oh! yes. Everything went splendidly and both dogs are fine!

The below video is of group from Russia visiting Sri Siva Jothi Mona Siddhar's Ashram. After individual interaction with each member of the Group, Swami distributes prasad. The video ends with the Group Leader feeding cake to participants.
