HOW DO I GET TO CASCINA BELLARIA?
There are 3 different airports that can be used : Milan (MXP/LIN/BGY) Turin (TRN) or Genoa (GOA). From airport either take a shuttle service (from 4€ to 6€) or a taxi (25/30€) to the train station and then take a train from whichever town to Alessandria. Milan is the most used, although Genoa is slightly nearer.
Cascina Bellaria offers a transfer service to/from Alessandria at 15€ pp one way, available from 10:00 to 18:30 every day, or they can take a "normal" taxi which costs around 45/50€ They also operate a service from/to airport but it's 120€pp one way
If there's 2 or 3 people together, it's probably cheaper to rent a car from the airport and split the costs. If it's individual travelers the train and then shuttle service is the cheapest solution.
