Bulkington is a large village in the borough of Nuneaton and Bedworth, Warwickshire, England, sitting between the towns of Nuneaton and Bedworth. It has medieval roots and expanded notably during the 18th and 19th centuries with local weaving and mining influences, so you still find terraces and a compact village centre that hint at its industrial past alongside more modern housing.

Today Bulkington feels largely residential but retains a strong community spirit, with independent shops, pubs, sports clubs and regular local events that keep a village identity. It’s popular with commuters thanks to good road and rail links and is within easy reach of Coventry and Birmingham, while still offering nearby green spaces and a quieter pace than the larger towns.
