Invisible Airfields

I flew into Fenland yesterday for the first time. If you've never been there, its a flat grass airfield surrounded by other flat grass fields. The GPS was shouting at me 'Its 3 miles away - straight ahead', but I didn't click on it until I saw an aircraft taxiing, at which point it all became blindingly obvious.

Are there any other airfields which are 'obvious when visible', but impossible to see? Do you have a favourite?

Lydd is notorious for being invisible, I know of people who have flown over it and not seen it and I'm sure there are others too.
