The reason they couldn't conquer all of Britain was because of supply lines. If I remember correctly, Rome didn't even want Britain, they were dragged in because of allied tribes or something like that. It's still a little too far out of the way.
Who wants a soggy little island on the edge of the known world?
Boudicca almost managed it. She led the Iceni and many other tribes into a major revolt that almost resulted in Roman withdrawal from the island. She burned three major Roman outposts (including Londinium). If she had won her final battle instead of lost it, the Romans would have withdrawn entirely from the island, and probably would not return for some decades, maybe even a century.
