I'd ask a local curtain maker to make a blackout lined roman blind with the top of the blind shaped to follow the window recess. You'd lose a bit of light, but you wouldn't have the glare from the floodlights shining in.
I'm not sure where the floodlights are mounted, but I'm going to assume they come from the adjacent properties behind you and your garden. If that's the case, you could consider planting some fast growing specimen trees or bamboo to filter the light before it reaches your house. You could also tend the height of your fence by attaching some trellis and growing a creeper across it. In terms of window treatments, bespoke curtains would be the most effective at blocking the light but they would also spoil to beautiful architectural lines you have in those windows and block some of the view so I wouldn't recommend that solution. Consider instead, a black-out roller blind in the same colour as the window frame to hang directly in front of the horizontal part of the window frame. The part of the frame is high-enough to shield anyone in this room from direct lights from your neighbours.
Thanks all, they are for a floodlit school pitch quite a distance away but in the winter the lights are on all evening and would light the room up. I do want to enjoy the shape of the window but screen it too. Trees would have to be enormous to block out the floodlights.
