Bulkeley is a small rural village and civil parish in Cheshire East, England, tucked into the rolling sandstone country of the Peckforton Hills. The hamlet sits close to Bulkeley Hill, part of the local sandstone ridge that gives fine views across the Cheshire Plain and attracts walkers and birdwatchers; neighbouring settlements include Bickerton and Peckforton, with the dramatic Victorian Peckforton Castle nearby.
Historically agricultural, Bulkeley retains a strong rural character with traditional farmhouses, cottages and estate buildings, and a small local community centred on parish life and village events. The landscape and local heritage make it a quiet spot valued for outdoor recreation and for its sense of Cheshire village history rather than for any large-scale industry or tourism development.
