countryfied
Having rural character
Countryfied means having the character or manner of rural life—unsophisticated, rustic, or provincial.
The word often carries a slightly dismissive tone, suggesting someone or something is too folksy or lacks urban polish: The décor was a bit countryfied for my taste.
Also spelled countrified.
