Fitting curtain on inside of window

Hi, we have a quiet tricky Bay window where I would like to have curtain tracks which I can fix to "ceiling " of Bay window if that makes sense. So I need a track that can be fitted to the window recesd.
We have a fitted wardrobe right next to the bay window so don't want a pole or track on outside of window.
Any suggestions where can I buy this track? . I Google but most searches came up with curtain tracks that gp on outside of window.

IIRC I bought mine from dunelm.0

I looked long and hard for a suitable curtain pole/rail for my bay window - Ended up getting one custom made (polished 25mm stainless steel tube). Attaching it to the ceiling was, ummm, fun. Had to locate the joists behind the plaster, bore some 1" holes through the plaster, and then drive some heavy duty screws in for the fixings.
Do not underestimate the stresses placed on the mountings, especially if you have any unsupported bends and/or heavy curtains.Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

I only know of these because I was researching the site yesterday and ordered my own tracking. Seems as if the last one I've listed could be good. Sorry, haven't looked at any other sites.0 -
