I'd do the usual new car/house/travel etc.
But what I would do is, go along to my local parish/town council meeting here in Maltby. A staunch 'no doubt', 'always will be' labour council. I'd reiterate that I'd lived here all my life. That my roots are here. That my uncle sits on the council now. That my great grandfather sat on the council alongside the councillor who's name is on the front of the hall.
I'd tell them I'd love to spend my fortune improving things in Maltby
But that because of my experience of their arrogant, ignorant, self promoting attitudes, (seen over the last 30 years) I'd be too wary of decisions as to how it's spent getting into their self serving hands.
With that a "Bye bye, I'm off with my cash."
With a couple of mill I'd probably get somewhere on the edge of a national park, but close to a city. Somewhere with plenty of land. Fill my time with the wife kids, running with the dog, cycling, climbing, open water swimming etc. I'm sure I'll find other activities too

How can I do what I wanted with that?
