Yeah, as long as the cords aren't fixed, gravity will do its job and they'll look great. Just make sure the attachments to the ceiling are lined up. If you are installing them down the slope as opposed to along it, you can just adjust the cord height.

I would definitely recommend finding out the sources of damp in the extension before you embark on any project. As was mentioned before - definitely check the guttering as a lot of the bubbled plaster inside seems to be around that area. I once looked at a house which had a line of bubbled plaster inside and, surprise surprise, directly outside on the solid was was a gutter pipe. A good inspection of the roof is worth it - are the lead flashings in good shape? There is also the odd exposed section of brick on your neighbours extension - could that be transmitting water into your party wall? The other thing to consider is the amount if moisture produced in a kitchen - its a lot more than you think and can raise humidity in a house over 60% (therefore leading to mould, etc). Therefore opening windows when cooking, adding an extractor fan are good ideas. You can buy devices very cheaply which will tell you the humidity in a room. It will help you out in the long run - afterall, if you do the rework to the extension the problem may re-occur!

​If you have access to a power socket in the room you could look at some kind of plug in pendant light which you could hang from the ceiling over the dining area.  You will have to ensure you have enough cable to do this and think about the neatest way to run the cable from the socket. Something like this - you could choose a shade to suit your decor https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/544479524/linen-cable-plug-in-pendant-light-black Or you could look at a complete ready made product like this (but they will have fixed cord length) https://www.dunelm.com/product/marsden-plug-in-flex-set-pewter-industrial-1000183106?defaultSkuId=30713764&branchCode=0985&ds_c=Lighting_Wall+Lights_[GOO-LIA-LIGHTING-WALLCEILING]&gclid=Cj0KCQjww4OMBhCUARIsAILndv5FzSuSkFZAk6gDnWX580UBNBFljQn8vITfkc6bIWu0WwpOE8lEJ8YaAtAuEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
