Curtain track / pole for inside recess - challenging installation

Hi everyone,

This is the bedroom my two little girls share. They have blackout blinds only. We moved in in July this year and have had loads to do. It's now 13 degrees in their bedroom despite having the heating on a lot .... I need to hang some thermal curtains! The beds cannot really go in any other position.

Does anyone happen to know how I could install curtain poles inside the recess (angled at the edges) with a "top fix" into the wooden "ceiling" of the recess ? Is this a thing?

I could install a normal pole onto the architrave of each window but the curtains would literally end on their beds.

Looking to get it sorted ASAP so any help gratefully received.

Thanks

This is what I did. I have left the curtain slightly open so you can see. It's a wardrobe pole and top fix brackets, very tight to the edge, and a thermal curtain. Makes a huge difference. I thought I would post if anybody reads this thread in the future! This cost £80 in total to do.
