This has luckily been made much easier in TFS 2012. Now there is a Rollback option from the GUI.

MSDN has more information on how to do it, and what options are available. Here is the text from MSDN on how to rollback to a specific version:

To roll back to a specific version:

1. In Source Control Explorer, select an item, open its shortcut menu, and choose Rollback.
2. In the Rollback dialog box, select Rollback to a specific version.

You can of course also rollback entire changesets or a collection of changesets. And you can also easily rollback to a specific point in time if you wish.
