THE PRICES of houses at Druids Glen golf club estate in Co Wicklow have been cut from between 11 per cent and nearly 50 per cent in an effort to sell them.

The prices of homes on golf course developments around the country are falling: a month ago, a group of investors in Doonbeg, Co Clare, cut prices, as did owners of some properties at the K Club in Co Kildare.
