Bulmer is a village and civil parish in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England. According to the 2001 census it had a population of 174. The village is about seven miles south-west of Malton.

Bulmer was the seat of the ancient wapentake of the same name. The name Bulmer comes from "bull mere," a lake frequented by a bull.

The Bulmer family take their name from Bulmer. Ansketil de Bulmer is the first recorded member of the Bulmer family, who lived in the area in the twelfth century.

Visually, the village has changed little during history; however the small village school at the bottom of School Lane is now the village hall. The village also used to be home to a pub, blacksmith, shop and agricultural engineering workshop; these are all now closed.

Bulmer church, originating from around the 10th century, still remains and services are held once every Sunday; the church also contains the last remaining tablet of a Methodist chapel, which used to be present in the village.
